Exclusive: USS Ronald Reagan UAP Encounter

This article is a departure from our usual content. Most of the founders of #SFTC were the original crew members of the USS Ronald Reagan CVN 76. I was a plank owner meaning I was in the shipyard while my least favorite president’s namesake was constructed. There was a

Movie Review: Outside the Wire (Stop Killer Robots)

Propaganda is subtle. Especially American propaganda written by the best and the brightest to glamorize the military industrial complex with an air of dystopian criticism. This movie makes it clear that its brand of dystopia is propaganda asset. Netflix feature: Outside the Wire, starring Anthony Mackie of Notorious fame, is

The hope of Herd Immune Christmas, while emblematic, is not looking realistic with reports that two major vaccines’ effectiveness is halved against mutated strains.

Watch: The War at Home

We are big supporters of Scott Noble and cannot recommend his films enough. Our recommendation would be to start at the beginning of his catalog available on his website www.metanoia-films.org so you can truly see how his documentary style has found a place of its own. When We

War is for Suckers & Losers

In the closing scene of The Godfather Michael Corleone announces that he’s enlisted in the Marines and his brother says to him: “…only saps risk their lives for strangers.” You only die for your family. My conclusion after my enlistment is that war ends when we run out of

Movie Review: Bombshell

Outside of pedigree and nepotism, all that is left is the lewdness associated with shameful means of success. I imagine Roger Ailes was one of the masked men in Kubrick’s last film Eyes Wide Shut — bringing women from the newsroom as a commodity to the sons and daughters of

Defund VA Police

Activist veteran organizations need to look at VA Police. More than half of minority vets are Black. This also means that the defunding of the police is just as important at the Veterans Administration than on the street. Not only are the majority of veterans harmless but the majority are

I was on a plane to Baltimore and I got to chatting up a woman next to me who was former army. It turned out that she was traveling from California to DC to march on Washington to bring awareness to Military Sexual Trauma (MST). The term was new to
