Yeah that came up.
Something to add ... I wonder Iron Eagle as hard core career never going higher for some reason. It reminds me of a passage from The Stand. When the army sends in people to pick up the initial folks in the small Texas town who got exposed to the Captain Tripps plague, Stu notes that all of the soldiers who are around them are all hard core types - no families, older, no higher ranks, little prospect for further advancement - *expendable,* *willing to do whatever*
Well...the reason this particular Iron Eagle reference is irking me is that it is from Wikipedia and it was just edited in Dec 2017 for the first time in a couple years by a person that goes by j04n....now there is a j04n on Twitter that happens to also be a security specialist in IT....just seems very coincidental for it to come up, especially considering the edit was solely about the word "insignia".....

This is where my questions re: humans vs other beings comes in. Philosophical of course, but could this be why - because they are not truly human in that they dont have the same capacity for compassion that most humans have? That their veins run cold with icy blood? Inquiring minds would love to know.

Interesting new thread:
Forbes posted an article blaming bad eggs in the FBI and DOJ for letting Hillary skate for her crimes and trying to throw the election for her.
Then they nearly immediately pulled the article.

Q said it was LIVE.
Best way to confirm this is to get a NEW picture of the construction site next door.

Colonels are often the ones tasked with either managing or carrying out intelligence black ops too.
The first time someone here equated Iron Eagles with Colonels, that's exactly where my mind went.

THAT brought me back to the name Colonel Charles 'Chappy' Sinclair...something I also posted here yesterday.
Colonel Sinclair is the namesake of the film 'Iron Eagle'...played by Lou Gossett Jr.
Interestingly, Gossett Jr. calls Obama 'Iron Eagle'.

News unlocks the map.
I don't know who, how, what, or why.....but certain "news" articles are tapped as clues. (I wish I had posted the one I found yesterday, but my gut told me to hold that one back.) That sounds weird and reminds me of the movie 'Beautiful Mind', but keep it in check, don't go overboard, be discerning, and I think we can keep this admonition .... "news unlocks the map".... within the bounds of reality.
The Supreme Court is the final judge in all cases involving laws of Congress, and the highest law of all — the Constitution. The Supreme Court, however, is far from all-powerful. Its power is limited by the other two branches of government. The President nominates justices to the court.
