According to The Hill, Democrats are proposing many reforms to the Supreme Court. The list includes efforts to apply term limits to Supreme Court justices. They want to establish a formal—and enforceable—code of ethics by which the justices must abide. Naturally, they want to stack the court and increase the number of justices on the […] The post If Dems Win, They Vow to Eliminate a Third Branch of Government appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

President Joe Biden‘s doctor met with a neurologist who is reportedly a Parkinson’s disease expert at the White House earlier this year, visitor logs show. The New York Post first published a story on Saturday about the logs as questions swirl about the commander-in-chief’s health following a fumbling debate preference less than two weeks ago. Online records show Kevin Cannard, whose LinkedIn page shows him as being a “Movement Disorders specialist at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center,” met with White House physician Kevin O’Connor at 5 p.m. ET on January 17. These same logs show the visit taking place in the Residence Clinic with two other people. According to the Post, Walter Reed cardiologist John Atwood is one of the individuals listed as being in the room. The fourth person has not been identified. Cannard travelled to the White House at least nine other times for appointments in the past year, stretching as far back as August 25, the visitor logs show. However, the purpose for each visit — including the one with O’Connor in January — is not shown in the records. The New York Post said the White House declined to answer questions about who met with Cannard, O’Connor, and Atwood in January. It also noted Cannard — an “authority on Parkinson’s who has worked at Walter Reed for nearly 20 years” — and Atwood refused to comment. A White House spokesperson told the outlet that a “wide variety of specialists from the Walter Reed system visit the White House complex to treat thousands of military personnel who work on the grounds.” Still, Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX), who served as a White House physician for former President Donald Trump and former President Barack Obama, told the Post it was “highly likely” the health experts were discussing Biden’s health. Biden, 81, is facing a crisis of confidence among his fellow Democrats after his shaky presentation at his debate against Trump — their first face-off of the 2024 election cycle. Some party members are calling on Biden to drop his re-election campaign, but the president and his team have been trying to reassure supporters that he is still capable of serving and running for a second term. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said on Friday Biden “checked in” with his doctor for a conversation about a “cold” following the debate, but stressed it was not a “medical examination.” Biden refused to commit to a cognitive exam during an interview with ABC. O’Connor said in late February, after Biden’s latest physical examination, that testing had turned up “no findings which would be consistent with” Parkinson’s disease and he determined the president to be “fit for duty,” according to The New York Times.

Our military is currently up against the most significant recruiting challenge it has faced in my lifetime, which poses a serious threat to national security. This is especially troubling when you consider the brewing conflict with multiple nations today. On the surface, it may seem that this is due, at least in part, to the […]

Women are the “unsung hero” of the grill, according to a new poll. The survey of 2,000 men and women revealed that 53% believe women are not receiving the notice or praise they deserve for their grill skills—yet the same goes for unappreciated men. Half of the respondents (55% were men and 47% were women) […] The post Who’s ‘Manning’ the Grills This Summer? Survey Says… Women appeared first on Good News Network.

Only the Lord Almighty Can Take Biden Out of the Race

The use of artificial intelligence represents the next generation of warfare, and NATO allies have reportedly made it a top priority to leverage the technology to boost the alliance's defense, according to Fox News Digital.A summit marking the 75th anniversary of the alliance is set to take place in Washington, D.C. next week. One of the focuses of the summit will be to discuss safeguarding NATO amid geopolitical tensions around the world. The member nations are also expected to be joined by Ukraine.Since the start of the Ukrainian conflict, there have been global fissures created between Western nations and their political opponents. One way in which NATO is considering bolstering its defense systems is through AI, according to the report.'Just as there are reasons for concern in countering Chinese and Russian kinetic weapons — such as hypersonic maneuvering cruise missiles — the U.S. has the ability to build effective offensive and defensive systems.'Blaze News previously reported that AI development in the U.S. had fallen behind political opponents such as China. Earlier this month, data analytics firm Govini indicated that the U.S. is still behind China in the AI race. Consequently, the U.S. would have a hard time winning a war against the People's Liberation Army if a serious conflict were to erupt between the two world superpowers.Govini investigates the performance of the federal government, specifically focusing on the 15 most important national security technologies through the lens of acquisition, adversarial capital, procurement, supply chain, foreign influence, and science and technology.Govini's report suggested that the U.S. has continued to under-invest in valuable AI capabilities while also slowing down in the research and development stages. Nine of the 12 areas assessed in the report noted that over 65% of the government's funding was still lingering in the research and development stage in 2023. As a result, many of these potentially valuable technologies are still not production-ready.Govini CEO Tara Murphy Dougherty said: "Despite the fact that artificial intelligence is an incredibly, highly visible, arguably the most transformational technology that matters in the critical tech competition, not just for the United States, but around the world, the Department of Defense is still primarily attacking this as a research and development effort."“While there is more to do in R&D for artificial intelligence, it is well past time for DoD to stop treating AI like it is just a science project,” she continued.Despite these setbacks, it appears that the ongoing conflict in Ukraine has increased the need for exceptional technology in the realm of drones in kinetic warfare. Consequently, this has ignited an AI race to become more offensively and defensively equipped.Retired Rear Adm. Mark Montgomery, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, said that "[t]here should be concern about countering Chinese and Russian AI capabilities in wartime, but concerns should not be mistaken for despair.""Just as there are reasons for concern in countering Chinese and Russian kinetic weapons — such as hypersonic maneuvering cruise missiles — the U.S. has the ability to build effective offensive and defensive systems to deter and, if necessary, defeat adversary actions," he continued.Fox News Digital reported that earlier this year, NATO more than doubled its tech accelerator sites under a program that has come to be known as the Defense Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic. DIANA is said to work with both public and private companies to come up with "deep technologies" to help shore up the alliance's defense systems.The report added that the program will install testing sites in 28 of the 32 NATO nations. The goal is to support and bolster innovation in the fields of AI, 5G, cyber, hypersonic, and autonomous systems.Additionally, the alliance will be looking to establish guardrails when it comes to AI during wartime, according to the report."There will be doctrinal discussions at NATO on making sure that we don't have ‘SKYNET’ take over and start engaging in kinetic action without humans making decisions," Marshall Billingslea, former NATO Assistant Secretary General for Defense Investment, said."As drones become increasingly sophisticated, while remaining inexpensive, and as people introduce artificial intelligence into drones for attack, there is a need for a comparable level of AI that has to get incorporated into countering UAS [unmanned aircraft systems], as well as theater missile defense capabilities," he concluded.According to the State Department's website, the 75th anniversary of NATO is set to feature the "strength and unity of our transatlantic bond, advance the implementation of the most robust deterrence and defense plans since the end of the Cold War, and showcase NATO’s vital role in defending our future for generations to come."Like Blaze News?
