Screenshot Lawmakers in Louisiana are set to receive classified briefings on “multiple waves” of unauthorized drones buzzing above a critical Air Force base. Twelve to fifteen sophisticated drones flew over the base the week of March 9. No one defended against them or shot any down. Therefore, no one knows who is behind them. We did nothing. Republican Senator Bill Cassidy expects to be debriefed on Friday on the recent incursions at Barksdale Air Force Base. “I’m told—but it’s not confirmed—that the drones [took] evasive action,” Cassidy told KTBS on Wednesday. “It’s not just somebody out there with a drone, and he happens to go over a fence. Rather, it’s people who don’t want to be recognized.” The swarm of drones flew over the US nuclear B-52 bomber fleet under Global Strike Command. The drones resisted jamming efforts. Multiple waves were detected over sensitive zones throughout the week. They broached restricted airspace. It interfered with operations. Barksdale is the headquarters of the Air Force’s Global Strike Command, which is responsible for the nation’s nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles and strategic bomber forces, including B2, B1, and B52 aircraft. The base is home to the 2nd Bomb Wing B52s and is the central hub of communications and logistical support for coordinating and directing those forces. The fact that potentially threatening drones were able to operate over such a critical complex with apparent impunity over several days, after a similar event, spanning 17 days, occurred more than two years ago at Langley AFB, is astonishing. Reports indicate that Barksdale personnel were repeatedly ordered to take cover as drones roamed over buildings and aircraft. No one traced them, and we have no idea who was behind this. At Barksdale, as at Langley AFB, the government apparently lacked effective technology to identify and counter the drones. Even if counter-UAS capabilities (C-UAS) were available, a decision to use them was likely complicated by concern over potential collateral injury to military personnel and civilians and property damage. Some reports indicate that Barksdale attempted to employ C-UAS jamming, but without success. The inability to jam could indicate that Barksdale was facing a threat with autonomous or effective anti-jamming capabilities. If accurate, this would suggest that a sophisticated foreign actor was behind the incursion rather than a drone hobbyist. It was a coordinated or repeated intrusion over a strategic U.S. base, and we didn’t defend the base. What are we going to do about it? We are behind in drone warfare. There have been multiple drone swarm incursions this month at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters that we can achieve all of our objectives without any ground troops, even as more troops are being deployed. It’s just an option, so we are always prepared, Rubio said. Rubio spoke to reporters before returning to the U.S. after he discussed with G7 foreign ministers in France the conflict launched by the U.S. and Israel late last month. Rubio said the U.S. was achieving its objectives in the war, which he said were destroying Iran’s missile and drone capabilities and factories to produce those weapons, as well as its navy and its air force, and expected to conclude its operation in “weeks, not months.” “We are ahead of schedule on most of them, and we can achieve them without any ground troops, without any,” Rubio said. Rubio said recent deployments of thousands more troops to the region were intended to give President Donald Trump options to respond to contingencies in the conflict, but declined to go into operational details. “In terms of why there’s deployments, number one, the president has to be prepared for multiple contingencies… We are always going to be prepared to give the president maximum optionality and maximum opportunity to adjust the contingencies should they emerge,” he said. Rubio also said Iran may set up a toll system for the Strait of Hormuz and insisted that European and Asian countries that benefit from trade through the strait should contribute to securing free passage once the conflict ends.

While attempting to rally the crowd, CPAC head Matt Schlapp asked, “How many of you would like to see impeachment hearings?” The audience erupted in cheers. Not expecting that response, he quickly switched gears: “No… that was the wrong answer.” He shot back—”Let’s try that again. How many of you would like to see impeachment hearings?” The crowd cheered again. They couldn’t take a hint. A bit asea, Schlapp joked about needing coffee for the attendees before pivoting to safety, asking about keeping the House majority. Maybe they want to be communist Democrats then? CPAC has always had a strong libertarian bent, along with conservatives, and it’s a confused organization. Having Jeffrey Epstein’s friend Steve Bannon as a featured speaker after we discovered he betrayed Trump and hoped to overturn his government was a very significant step. CPAC just put itself back into the oblivion from which it came. Loyalty is a very important quality, And when the going got rough, they took off. Are they going to vote for the Harris-AOC ticket and sell us all out? We put our money down on Trump. Don’t abandon him now. He has faults and makes mistakes, but he is trying to make America great again. That is obvious. He has risked his life repeatedly for this country. That should mean something. When the going gets rough, you don’t put on your racing gear and head for the door. That being said, President Trump has to end this war soon. He will lose all of us if he gets us into a prolonged engagement with soldiers’ lives lost. Ntnya here sees disaster. @CPAC Trump betrayed us; no mass deportations, an unnecessary war with Iran, never-ending H1b Indians and Muslims flooding the country “legally”, taking over entire companies and cities. — nunya (@nunya88788772) March 27, 2026 Yet, Rep. Nancy Mace’s view is very understandable. Not everyone thinks putting troops on the ground is a good idea. No one wants to see one soldier die. Not one. We already lost 13. Mace: I’ll be voting against the funding if we’re putting troops on the ground. I’m not going to fund that—no U.S. troops. pic.twitter.com/qLDbT0OrvA — Acyn (@Acyn) March 24, 2026 The post CPAC Dallas Ballyhoos Impeachment Hearings appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Vice President JD Vance Officially CONFIRMS that Rep. Ilhan Omar Committed Immigration Fraud: “Ilhan Omar definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America” The VP says the White House is going to “go after” Omar for these crimes. “What are the legal remedies now that we know she’s committed immigration fraud? How do you go after her? How do you investigate her? How do you actually build the case to actually get some justice for the American people?” Vance also calls for a probe into Omar’s knowledge of rampant Somali fraud in Minnesota: “She has been at the center of a lot of the worst fraudsters in the Somali community.” She came illegally and hates America. Omar said it is the worst country in the world. She should go home to Somalia. Ilhan Omar said she is only in Congress for Somalia. Let’s make her happy and send her home. As for money, she likely has plenty of it, having made millions from somewhere. Get this terrorist sympathizer out of here. She has done enough damage/ BREAKING: Vice President JD Vance Officially CONFIRMS that Rep.

Dana Loesch tore into Tucker Carlson on her radio show this week. She was angry about the MAGA defectors in general, if they were ever MAGAs. What makes her especially irate is the fact that Iran is using it. Loesch brought up the so-called popularity of some digital podcasters. She says some of these podcasters bashing Trump, Rubio, and Hegseth are not as popular as they appear. They have not influenced MAGAs, real MAGAs. Trump’s support is strong with that group. That is true. If you are on a podcast for three seconds, it counts as a view. Some podcasters pay these bot farms with thousands of websites to join their networks and boost their posts. There is a lot of manufactured outrage over Iran. Follow your own conscience and belief system. Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Steve Bannon, Nick Fuentes, Thomas Massie, and the rest of the angry defectors are not as influential as people think or as they think they are. Erick Erickson said the Maroot family in Texas has given a lot of money to Ilhan Omar, Jamaal Bowman, Rashida Tlaib, and one Republican: Thomas Massie. Massie agreed with the most radical members of Congress on blocking a bill to sanction the Ayatollah. I haven’t verified that last statement. They would have you think they got Trump elected and people don’t think for themselves. Loesch took on Tucker and his ridiculous comment, claiming he had never heard of anyone being attacked by radical Islamists. I don’t necessarily go to Loesch for news but this video is very interesting and filled with truisms.
