The U.S. Must Build More Icebreakers Now!

In January Of 2014 I wrote this article: U.S. Must Build More Icebreakers Now

From what I can tell, we still only have 2 icebreakers. That is barely enough icebreakers to keep saving arctic scientists from getting caught in the ice while trying to prove there is no ice.
Remember When This Global Warming Krew Got Stuck In The Ice?

More Polar Scientists Stuck in the Ice

Arctic Ocean almost totally ice-covered – Map

Purple signifies sea-ice thickness of approximately ½ to 1½ meters (20 inches to 5 ft).
Blue or green signifies 1½ to 3 meters ( 5 ft to 10 ft) of ice.
Yellow or orange signifies 3 to 4 meters (10 ft to 13 ft) of ice.
Red signifies 4 to 5 meters (13 ft to 16 ft) of ice.
White signifies zero thickness of ice.

I don’t see much open water. Do you?

The Red Wave: Not What The Democrats Expect...

‘Abolish ICE’ Zealots Show Left’s True Beliefs on Borders

“No ban. No wall. No borders at all.”

That is the radical rallying cry of the Democratic Socialists of America. Waving desecrated U.S. flags, grubby fists, and ratty anarchy banners, DSA’s professional protesters are targeting Trump administration officials, threatening immigration enforcement agents, and blockading detention facilities and processing centers nationwide.

On a similar note, Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., proudly marched in a parade last week with a T-shirt emblazoned with “Yo No Creo En Fronteras”—Spanish for “I don’t believe in borders.”

These are abjectly unserious people, operating in bad faith, who pose a serious threat to our nation’s well-being.

In New York, DSA rabble-rousers took over a loading dock used to transport immigrants at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement processing center on Varick Street. Genius move. Now, detainees whose bond hearings were canceled because of the protest disruptions face another six or more extra weeks in detention.

In Portland, Oregon, DSA operatives shut down a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office after preventing workers from exiting the building.

In Detroit, organizers disrupted ordinary processing and appointments at a downtown ICE field office and plan to camp out there 24 hours a day until the end of the month. “Our short-term goal is to shut down operations at this particular center,” ringleader Robert Jay explained.

“Our long-term goal is to abolish ICE entirely.”

This reckless, simpleton sentiment doesn’t belong to the fringe of the American left. It is the center. Across the country, supposedly mainstream Democrats, activist groups, and entertainers are pushing to “Abolish ICE.” To be clear, if the hashtag didn’t clue you in: They don’t just want to reform or reduce the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, which was created by merging existing immigration entities after the 9/11 attacks to better coordinate enforcement against alien lawbreakers inside the country.

They want it gone. Zapped. Poof.

CHAOS IN TEHRAN! Iranian Protesters Chase Police Down the Street, Then Torch Their Bikes (VIDEO)

The country of Iran has been hit by a collapse in currency, economic mismanagement by the brutal regime, and impending U.S. sanctions. In the past week several shopkeepers joined the economic protests in the street.

This is the latest round of protests in Iran. There was a mass uprising in January followed by uprising in April-May that saw 1,545 protests.

The Iranian regime sent in the Revolutionary Guards at one point to put down the protesters.
