Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Thursday, October 16, 2025

Local and state leaders say they were given virtually no notice, coordination, or transparency.

California Governor Gavin Newsom took to X to slam the Trump administration, saying, "Donald Trump and JD Vance think that shutting down the I-5 to shoot out missiles from ships is how you respect the military. PUT ASIDE YOUR VANITY PARADE AND PAY OUR TROOPS INSTEAD."

Camp Pendleton is located in northern San Diego and is a very beautiful location along the pacific coast.

But there's not much out there, mainly just the I-5 and acres of federal land.

I don't see how having a military parade there would interfere with protests. (Unless someone from San Diego was planning on driving up to Orange County or Los Angeles to join a protest. Or vice versa.)

I mean. I could be missing the big picture. Seems more like an attempt at distracting from the protests rather than interfering with them.

I'm sure our rightwing controlled media will focus on the parade and largely ignore the protests.

The Trump administration has not yet commented on the report, and no other major news outlets have corroborated the claims made by MeidasTouch. Times Now Digital cannot independently verify the information.

I see some TFRs but they expire Friday afternoon. I'll let you know if more show up.

Off the coast of SoCal down to Bjaja, there is a Danger Area, which is probably what they are talking about, but you can't see it from the beach.
I do now earlier this week there was an exercise off the BigSur coast where we lost a Hawkerhunter.

You are reeking of desperation; trying to turn 'immigrant' into a slur... oh, wait, you're a Republican, and not the Lincoln Project kind, so that's all ya gots.

Makes sense.

Honey, You can verify my information via the FAA.

Your article clearly states it couldn't verify it.

"You can't see it from the beach"

If course you can, it's where the jarheads set up their urban warfare site, and ships and choppers and VTOLs do their business regularly. You really are a fucking clown.

trying to turn 'immigrant' into a slur..

Who else is an immigrant here?

Clown? Isn't he from Iran? That's his heritage but I don't know if he immigrated here or was born here.

I suppose I can call him "the immigrant from Iran".

Who can hold their tongue and resist calling me a racist?

How is it misogynist? In what way was that comment misogynist, you called me a racist slur.

I mean the "honey" comment might be, but from what I am reading its a new the "standard".
