Ops Brief 058: Daily Drop - 9 June 2025 (Aliens, Drones & Governor Meltdowns)
In today’s Daily Drop, Jared’s back to walk you through a spicy buffet of government overreach, UFO shenanigans, and military budget cosplay. NORCOM’s moving troops into L.A., Newsom’s throwing a federal tantrum, and the Pentagon is apparently deleting Signal messages like they’re hiding UFOs—because, spoiler alert: they kind of are.
We’ve got dive-deep takes on the Air Force’s nuclear glow-up, Space Force’s identity crisis (again), and why the B-1B is still the king of air-dropped “nope.” Also, if you ever wanted to know how Norway hijacked a U.S. bomb mid-flight or why Gavin Newsom thinks he's still in charge of something—this one’s for you.
🔥 Key Takeaways:
- Northcom’s Task Force 51 activated for L.A. deployment—because of course it is.
- Governor Newsom throws a legal hissy fit over National Guard federalization.
- The Pentagon’s Signal messages mysteriously vanish. IG says: “We’ll look into it… maybe.”
- DoD admits to 70 years of UFO gaslighting. Classic.
- The B-21 Raider may need backup. The Air Force is nuclear-hungry post-New START.
- Norway guides a U.S. bomb to target mid-flight, because NATO bros trust each other now.
- Beale AFB trades spy planes for robot warbirds (CCAs).
- Space Force beefs with Elon Musk… because of politics, not rockets.
- The B-1B turns 40 and still slaps. Jared gets nostalgic and misty-eyed.
- Trans ban leads to removal of Space Force Colonel Brie Fram—cue Twitter warfare.
- RAND warns: Indo-PACOM drone swarms are coming. So… maybe fix that.
