This is a post I just made on Facebook concerning a massive data center being constructed in Fort Wayne, IN. Ours is probably somewhat unique as it is being located in an area of our city near residences which is causing a wide variety of concerns, but the data centers are going up all over the place. Makes one wonder what exactly is being stored in them?:
I just read a post that this is what the Google monstrosity being put in our backyard is all about. If so, no wonder it was cloaked in secrecy and we were never given a say. Talk about making Fort Wayne a target on a warfare map. Great job State of Indiana! (If it’s proven this is BS, I will apologize for making assumptions. I PRAY I will need to apologize!):
“The U.S. Department of Defense has awarded a $9 billion cloud computing contract to Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Oracle[1][2][3][4][5]. The Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) contract will provide the Pentagon with enterprise-wide cloud services across all security domains and classification levels, from the strategic to tactical level[1][4].
The contract, which runs until June 2028, is a departure from the previous JEDI contract awarded solely to Microsoft in 2019[1][2]. The JEDI contract was mired in controversy and legal battles, with Amazon alleging political interference from former President Trump[2].
The multi-vendor approach is more common in the private sector and aims to make the work cheaper and more resilient[2][3]. Each company will compete for individual task orders, with a minimum guarantee of $100,000[2][3].
The award is a significant win for Oracle, which is not typically considered a top cloud provider[3]. All four companies have achieved high-level security accreditations to host the Pentagon's sensitive data[4].

What would you like to see more of on locals?
@Loan_Tran "Destiny Cards, Cultural topics, and maybe summon your former self and talk about Sex, dating, and relationships. The boys might not like it but I really don't care what they think🤪"
@AugustOctavian "whatever you were doing back in 2021-2013. Call-in live shows, Q&A post that you used to answer on you rumble show, etc. I don't think it needs topic specific. I'll be honest i usually tune out when the astrology stuff get put on but if you have a way to mix it into politics that would be cool."
@Amelle "Politics, psychology, philosophy, Destiny Cards, psychics, the mating habits of Antarctic penguins... basically anything that helps figure out why people are insane."
Who's responsible for America's missile shortage?
@Chris1507 "Most likely it’s Iran’s fault. When this war started, nobody was aware of how sophisticated Iran’s ballistic missiles were going to be. This was a big surprise. So if your in a fight with someone who is clearly ...
Our missile shortage doesn't just leave us undefended and unprepared. It says a lot about the rapid decline of America.
Tucker is dropping more info tonight on a political movement involving him, Thomas Massie and MTG.
What do you want to see? Let me know in the comments.
We are RAPIDLY running out of key munitions to fight all the wars we're waging. Who's at fault?
