Above: Federal Failure At Damon Point

 

A short period of time and much has gone on.

Here, at Oak Bay Starfish, we’re still fascinated with the fake War on Terror. We recognize that both major parties and the press are not about asking questions in this area.

Why It Matters

US Troops were sent into life and death situations in the aftermath of 911.

For this reason it is important to ask questions and develop a feel for what is real and what is honest.

It feels like a society where honest and meaningful ideas stand up to questioning and discussion, but the questioning and discussion rarely takes place.

You can be sure that newspeople and the school teachers who stage Veterans Day assemblies will never ask questions to make sense of how sending US troops to distant lands is related to American rights and freedoms. They will avoid questions related to airport security theater.

Reaching for an honest understanding of how all this works seems to be completely off limits.

The Troops are sent into life and death situations in distant lands for our freedoms and safety? Decades later, how about a discussion on how all this is meant to work.

No REAL ID, Pay A Fee – Our Questions

What keeps the terrorists with no ID of any kind from creating a disruption at the back end of the airport security screening line?

Guaranteed: No TV newsperson anywhere will ever ask this question. Americans do not live in a free and honest society.

Decades Past 911 – A Fake War On Terror

In recent years, the press tends to support government agencies, departments and policies rather than question them.

Below:

A total of 3 Seattle TV newspeople work this story on camera. Zero questions from any of them.

KOMO News

Imagine the TV newsperson, on camera, escorting the TSA official all the way to the back of the “be sure to arrive early line” and asking what keeps the bad guys from creating a disruption at that point.

Year after year, more of the same. Similar cheerful videos, TV newspeople interviewing each other.

No voices of dissent. No passengers with questions about security theater will ever make it on air.

Sealed Borders?

Over and again, we are told by Trump and his team that the borders are sealed.

Real Newspeople May Ask

Are Seattle area drug addicts having any problem finding their cartel product of choice due to any federal drug war effort?

US Dept. of Homeland Security – The people who fail to keep cartel product away from local communities will be keeping the Super Bowl safe.

Just ask the DEA about sealed borders:

DEA High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas:

“…HIDTA-designated counties are located in 50 states…”

Welcome Home Troops. Thanks for doing time/risking your ass in Iraq and Afghanistan, working to keep a post 911 USA safe & secure.

Don’t worry-The Super Bowl and public affairs will be safe:

Real newspeople may ask:

If special games require special security-what keeps regular games safe? Crowd size/capacity is similar at several stadiums.

Are fans less safe at regular games?

What prevents terror strikes at hundreds of events & locations unsupervised by federal authorities?

What stops terrorists from going 2 states over and driving a truck across the playground at a daycare center?

What Others Are Saying

From worst of times to even worse: the Trump administration continues to spiral

Sidney Blumenthal

Jan 29, 2026 – The Guardian

“Bovino had cultivated his image for propaganda purposes just as carefully as former beauty queen Kristi Noem adjusts her outfits. He has been highly conscious of how he presented himself as a paramilitary fashion plate for what he calls his “turn and burn” raids. Bovino is the only one on an ICE raid who does not mask his face, so that he is the only personification of Trump’s brutal tactics. He poses in his photo on his Twitter/X in tactical gear holding an M4 rifle with a telescopic sight.”

“He wears a full-length dark military coat with bulky square shoulders, a high collar and decorated with military-like patches to attempt to project an intimidating presence.”

Sports event becomes immigration enforcement event:

Super Bowl 2026: What we know about ICE as Seahawks face Patriots

By Alexandra Yoon-Hendricks – Seattle Times staff reporter

Jan. 28, 2026

Federal Criticism Of Halftime Show:

“Trump, who says he will not be attending this year’s Super Bowl, has criticized the selection of Bad Bunny and Green Day, who are also set to perform.”

This is the same country that stages a big celebration of freedom and independence from a powerful central government each July 4th.

“It’s not uncommon for federal law enforcement agencies to provide support for local police departments overseeing security at the Super Bowl and other major sporting events. ICE has previously conducted operations at the Super Bowl, cracking down on sellers of counterfeit merchandise, investigating possible cases of forced labor and stopping drug trafficking operations.”

Several comments have been posted with the article above:

“ICE is providing “security” for the Super Bowl? That doesn’t seem like part of their mission to me. But hey, they say if you’re here legally you have nothing to fear, right? They might rough you up or shoot you, but you’ll be fine if you say nothing and march in a straight line. ;)”

 

Tune in to any Super Bowl in the post 911 era to see the press promote a big US Dept. of Homeland Security show of force to keep the big game safe.

The folks who can’t keep fentanyl trafficking cartels from moving product into various US communities are keeping the Super Bowl safe. Way To Go Team.

Fentanyl still flooding the Valley as DEA pushes for 0 deaths

by: Jorge Vela KVEO News

Dec 19, 2025

“The Drug Enforcement Agency has launched a new nationwide initiative called Fentanyl Free America, aiming for zero deaths from the deadly synthetic drug as fentanyl seizures continue to rise across the country.”

“Fentanyl was also recently designated a weapon of mass destruction, a move that expands the DEA’s authority to combat trafficking.”

“Dr. Melendez said illegal fentanyl is now the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45.”

White House backtracks initial claims about Alex Pretti after intense backlash

Hugo Lowell – The Guardian

Jan 26, 2026

“The evolving positions at the White House were notable for how quickly they were changing and how reactive the administration was to a sudden free fall in support of ICE and US border patrol tactics across Washington, most notably among Republicans on Capitol Hill.”

 

Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino returning to position in El Centro: Sources

By Luke Barr – ABC News

January 26, 2026

“President Donald Trump on Monday announced he is dispatching Homan — bypassing the normal chain of command — where Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Bovino have been overseeing ICE operations.”

“Noem, Bovino and FBI Director Kash Patel have defended the agents’ actions. Noem said Pretti had been “brandishing” a gun and possessed multiple magazines with the intent to inflict harm on officers — a “massacre,” Bovino claimed. Patel went so far as to suggest carrying a gun to a protest is illegal.”

 

White House distances Trump from provocative claims by Noem, others on Pretti shooting

By Isabella Murray, Hannah Demissie, and Alexandra Hutzler – ABC News

Jan 26, 2026

“Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and deputy White House chief of staff Stephen Miller quickly accused Pretti, an ICU nurse, of domestic terrorism after Saturday’s shooting without citing any evidence.”

“The shooting is being investigated by Homeland Security Investigations and the FBI, Leavitt told reporters. Customs and Border Protection is also conducting their own internal review, she said.”

Noem, Bovino and FBI Director Kash Patel have defended the agents’ actions. Noem said Pretti had been “brandishing” a gun and possessed multiple magazines with the intent to inflict harm on officers — a “massacre” Bovino claimed. Patel went so far as to suggest carrying a gun to a protest is illegal.”

“Trump, like Noem, Bovino and Patel, criticized Pretti for carrying a weapon at a protest and had called Pretti a “gunman” in a social media post over the weekend.”

The post 911 era has been a time to tell the American people that US troops are sent to distant lands to defend American freedoms.

Thanks For Your Service is a phrase that is now common.

Veterans Day assemblies at public schools are common.

Free meals provided to veterans by major restaurant chains on what used to be Armistice Day has become a tradition.

From 2004

“Today, however, the Congress has relinquished its delegated powers, giving the President license to do whatever he and his office determine that they can get away with. Consequentially, the presidential and legislative oaths to the Constitution have just turned into a great photo op on inauguration day.”

“It is a sad and hard realization for a grunt who loves the Marine Corps to admit that the organization is not used in the preservation of liberty, and has not been used toward that end for a very long time.”

Why I Didn’t Reenlist

By Casey Khan

February 14, 2004

Mainstream Media Functions Like Paid Actors Reading A Script

Americans do not live in a free and honest society. Today, the mainstream media will function like paid actors reading a script:

Would any newsperson ever ask:

Did the advantage of US air power allow the undeclared wars in Iraq or Afghanistan to be prevented, won or shut down?

US jet aircraft have been able to strike targets in what wars won by the US?

Currently serving four-star officers and high level DOD civilians have been associated with what wars won by the US?

Don’t Lie To People And Maybe They Would Be More Patriotic

The Troops are sent into life and death situations in distant lands for our freedoms? Decades later, how about a discussion on how all this is meant to work.

In some cases, the US Armed Forces provide for our security. That’s as good as it gets.

In terms of American rights and freedoms-The Dept. of Defense has no more say than the Dept. of Agriculture.

Legal marijuana, concealed carry of handguns, semi automatic rifle sales, federal minimum drinking age, federal toilet regulations, sports betting, federal gas can regulations/free enterprise system, web censorship, voting rights, bump stock ban, interracial marriage, gay marriage, tobacco sales, open container laws, etc.

American freedoms come and go.

None of the above are linked in any way with The Joint Chiefs of Staff, The Troops, The Dept. of Defense or the outcome of military operations overseas.

 

Both major parties are OK with federal prohibition of alcohol and tobacco for adults age 18-20.

No such thing the day I graduated from high school.

That was before decades of military operations for your freedoms.

Both major political parties are now OK with treating 18-20 year old adults as second-class citizens.

Why do elected officials and high level DOD civilians speak of the US Armed Forces as if they function as some sort of giant civil rights organization?

 

Decades after the lessons of Vietnam, the Pentagon seems to specialize in undeclared/unwon wars.

This appears to be the case no matter what political party or personality is elected to office.

JFK speaks about the role of the press in a free society:

Fog Them Down With The Antidote

Love to see newspeople ask:

Has any US community announced that first responders are finding less need for Narcan, buprenorphine, Naloxone, fentanyl test strips, or any similar product used in overdose response situations?

Any questions from newspeople?

Is there any possibility that any DEA office or DEA budget will be downsized due to the success of all US Dept. of Homeland Security efforts in recent months?

The US Dept. of Homeland Security was established in 2002. This giant federal agency now has more than two decades of experience and lessons learned in working to prevent cartel product from entering the US. More overdose deaths now, or before DHS?

Chicago DEA – More Of The Same – Cartel Threat Rolls On

Jan 12, 2026

DEA Chicago’s new top enforcer discusses priorities, battling cartel influence in drug trafficking

“I understand Chicago. I understand the drug trafficking threat here, and it’s our goal, working through our partners, to reduce that,” he said.”

 

Chicago DEA still chases after cartel product not stopped at the border by Kristi Noem.

Will Chicago DEA be shut down when cartel drugs stop entering the US? Have recent US Dept. of Homeland Security efforts reduced the need for Chicago DEA services?

Has any community anywhere in the US downsized or shut down any local drug task force, or narcotics enforcement team due to the success of Dept. of War strikes on narcoterrorist drug boats, ICE crackdowns and designating cartels as terrorist organizations?

Any questions from newspeople?

Border Is Not Sealed

ABC 7 Chicago

December 2025 – The Border Is Not Sealed

Compliant TV newspeople host the DEA for friendly interviews avoiding any mention of progress made by Kristi Noem or Dept. of War strikes on drug boats.

Border Not Sealed – Seattle DEA

In recent years, the press tends to support government agencies, departments and policies rather than question them.

Arizona DEA – Border Not Sealed

Texas – All Federal Efforts Fall Short

Again- Kristi Noem’s giant and expensive US Dept. of Homeland Security appears to be completely irrelevant here.

The post 911 surveillance state (fusion centers, license scanners, Homeland Security grant money, monitoring of e-mails, text messages, & social media sites, no fly/terror watch lists, tracking of cell phones, best advances in REAL ID and AI technologies, etc.) fails to keep fentanyl out:

Fentanyl still flooding the Valley as DEA pushes for 0 deaths

by: Jorge Vela KVEO News

Dec 19, 2025

“The Drug Enforcement Agency has launched a new nationwide initiative called Fentanyl Free America, aiming for zero deaths from the deadly synthetic drug as fentanyl seizures continue to rise across the country.”

“Fentanyl was also recently designated a weapon of mass destruction, a move that expands the DEA’s authority to combat trafficking.”

“Dr. Melendez said illegal fentanyl is now the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45.”

Port Angeles

Unlike many cities of its size, Port Angeles maintains a significant Homeland Security/CBP/Border Patrol presence.

Are newspeople forbidden to ask questions related to Port Angeles Homeland Security funding and performance?

Newspeople have a long history of not asking questions in this area.

New Port Angeles USBP Station opened more than a decade ago. Has the new station been able to prevent cartel drugs from entering the Olympic Peninsula?

Newspeople remain silent.

After a Port Angeles CBP buildup that took place more than a decade ago, is there any follow up made by the press to inform the public on whatever results have been achieved?

Operation Macho Swagger

Fast boats put agents in close distance with ‘bad guys’ on the watery border

By Paul Gottlieb Jul 17, 2011 Peninsula Daily News

2011-

“… their main interaction with the boating public: Boarding boats and checking for ID, getting a “vibe,” as Jeff P. called it, for what’s up.”

2013-

Heroin epidemic gripping Port Angeles

In The News – 2024

With a significant Homeland Security/CBP/Border Patrol presence at Port Angeles:

Clallam County has one of the highest per capita rates of drug overdoses in the state…”

Look for newspeople to ask zero questions in this area:

When is the last time the Port Angeles Border Patrol made an arrest of any kind?

When is the last time the Port Angeles Border Patrol made an arrest linked in any way to the US/Canada border?

Has massing US Border Patrol agents at the southern edge of the Strait of Juan de Fuca played any role in reducing Clallam County drug overdose numbers?

Have opioid lawsuits played any role in improving the situation?

How do cartels react to opioid lawsuits?

Are passports/enhanced/REAL IDs effective in keeping cartel drugs out of the US?

Standard driver’s licenses have not been accepted at the border since 2009.

When is the last time the Port Angeles Border Patrol made any seizure that kept any amount of fentanyl, heroin or any opioid from entering Clallam County?

Were Clallam County drug overdose death numbers higher before the US Dept. of Homeland Security was established (2002) or are the numbers higher with a $51.6 billion (every 12 months) US Dept. of Homeland Security in place? This giant federal agency now has more than two decades of experience and lessons learned in working to prevent cartel product from entering the US. More overdose deaths now, or before DHS?

Over in Island County

Has the Island County Homeland Security-funded patrol boat been involved in any arrest or seizure related in any way to the US/Canada border?

Newspeople remain silent.

Public Records Request

It is very common that public offices in various states will say something like: Go to our website to submit your public records request online.

They would prefer the person with the camera leave the office as soon as possible.

It is common in various states that open records laws allow the public records request to be submitted in person orally or in writing and that the public records request may be made anonymously.

Public records laws set up an open door policy for people to go and interact in person with government offices and agencies during normal business hours at public offices.

Limited Powers

Law enforcement authorities in the US have limited powers away from border crossings and ports of entry.

It would be as well understood as memorizing a pledge to a flag.

Nothing about this knowledge is about being disrespectful or interfering with law enforcement operations.

The Trump Administration Says It’s Illegal To Record Videos of ICE. Here’s What the Law Says.

By C.J. Ciaramella – Reason

From the Feb/Mar 2026 issue

“The Trump administration believes you don’t have the right to record Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in public. This stance is both factually wrong and an attempt to chill free speech by conflating it with violence.”

 

DHS Says ICE Officers Have “Federal Immunity.” The Law Is More Complicated.

Federal Agents Used a Battering Ram to Enter a Minneapolis Home Without Valid Warrant, Video Shows

“Any American should be terrified by…such an egregious violation of the Fourth Amendment,” said the arrestee’s attorney.

Autumn Billings – Reason

Jan 14, 2026

 

“…unlike police who typically need warrants for arrests in private spaces, ICE has broader statutory authority for warrantless immigration arrests.”

“Multiple federal courts have ruled that ICE agents violate the Fourth Amendment when they forcibly enter homes without a judicial warrant, absent recognized exceptions like emergency situations or the homeowner’s consent.”

“If ICE shows up at your door with only an administrative warrant, you do NOT have to let them inside.”

Armed Forces Recruiting – 1980s

Part of what made it work:

We found a period of Cold War-era peacetime stability. The US Armed Forces were on the back burner, right where they are supposed to be.

In past decades, people could do time in uniform, then return to the US with a feeling that they were living in the best country on the planet.

They believed it and their parents and grandparents believed it.

Those who did may have wished to hand down a better version of the modern American society to their kids and grandkids.

Today-

Standards have deteriorated. The troops return to an ongoing breakdown of society.

Both major parties have taken turns in power over the past 40 years or so. For sure, there is a chunk of public policy that has become worse, not better.

Emergency/crisis/chaos mode is what we get now.

Back to a time before the US Dept. of Homeland Security was established in 2002. This giant federal agency now has more than two decades of experience and lessons learned in working to prevent cartel product from entering the US. More overdose deaths now, or before DHS?

We’re not impressed.

Credibility squandered, enthusiasm dried up.

Don’t lie to people and maybe they would be more patriotic.

Decades after the lessons of Vietnam, it feels like the people who run the Pentagon specialize in undeclared/unwon wars. Is it understandable that young people and their parents and grandparents would take a dim view on all this?

TV Newspeople Function Like Paid Actors Reading A Script

TV newspeople:

Would any TV newsperson ever ask:

Did the advantage of US air power allow the undeclared wars in Iraq or Afghanistan to be prevented, won or shut down?

US jet aircraft have been able to strike targets in what wars won by the US?

Currently serving four-star officers and high level DOD civilians have been associated with what wars won by the US?

Fake War on Terror – Borders Not Sealed

A fake War on Terror features a DEA that thrives on borders that are not sealed and the newspeople who avoid asking questions about all this.

Kristi Noem & Dept. of War Vietnam-style drug boat body counts fail to keep fentanyl from entering the US.

Just ask the DEA:

December 2025 – The Border Is Not Sealed

Compliant TV newspeople host the DEA for friendly interviews avoiding any mention of progress made by Kristi Noem or Dept. of War strikes on drug boats.

Border Not Sealed – Seattle DEA

In recent years, the press tends to support government agencies, departments and policies rather than question them.

Arizona DEA – Border Not Sealed

Texas – All Federal Efforts Fall Short

Again- Kristi Noem’s giant and expensive US Dept. of Homeland Security appears to be completely irrelevant here.

The post 911 surveillance state (fusion centers, license scanners, Homeland Security grant money, monitoring of e-mails, text messages, & social media sites, no fly/terror watch lists, tracking of cell phones, best advances in REAL ID and AI technologies, etc.) fails to keep fentanyl out:

Fentanyl still flooding the Valley as DEA pushes for 0 deaths

by: Jorge Vela KVEO News

Dec 19, 2025

“The Drug Enforcement Agency has launched a new nationwide initiative called Fentanyl Free America, aiming for zero deaths from the deadly synthetic drug as fentanyl seizures continue to rise across the country.”

“Fentanyl was also recently designated a weapon of mass destruction, a move that expands the DEA’s authority to combat trafficking.”

“Dr. Melendez said illegal fentanyl is now the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45.”

Love to see newspeople ask:

More overdose deaths now, or before the giant and expensive US Dept. of Homeland Security was created back in 2002?

Texas Again – Dec 23, 2025

Newspeople play the role of DEA public affairs staff instead of asking questions in the promotional video below.

Zero questions Re: Kristi Noem’s giant and expensive US Dept. of Homeland Security.

Zero questions Re: Dept. of War Vietnam-style drug boat body counts.

Made for TV DEA spokesperson lets us know what to think:

Puget Sound Area

The Northwest High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area chases after cartel product not stopped at the border by Kristi Noem.

Will Northwest HIDTA be shut down when cartel drugs stop entering the US? Have recent US Dept. of Homeland Security efforts reduced the need for Northwest HIDTA services?

Has any community anywhere in the US downsized or shut down any local drug task force, or narcotics enforcement team due to the success of Dept. of War strikes on narcoterrorist drug boats?

Any questions from newspeople?

 

If you are on the Kristi Noem team, you have been out kicking ass this year. You have placed cartels on notice in a no-nonsense fashion.

2025 tough talk includes designating cartels as terrorist organizations and fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.

What wars has DOD won by designating groups as terrorist organizations or by going after weapons of mass destruction?

Any questions from newspeople?

More than six months back, Kristi Noem deployed her ass kicking drug war road show.

Homeland Security Vision of Success

Promotional events crafted and controlled by public affairs professionals, staged with major drug hauls, patrol boats, helicopters, etc.

The big campaign features top level team leaders thanking each other.

Well done.

Announcing the number of DOD ground units, US Navy and US Coast Guard vessels sent towards the US/Mexico border demonstrates a sense of commitment.

If you are part of a local drug task force, or narcotics enforcement team, you are advertising the latest big drug bust after cartel product is able to move past the jurisdiction of federal agents at borders, border crossings and ports of entry, REAL ID checks and a barrier of DOD ground units, US Navy and US Coast Guard vessels prior to arriving in Hometown, USA.

If you are part of the DEA, you may hope for limited success coming from the Trump/Noem team because what would you do with yourself if cartel drugs could no longer enter the US?

Please let us know when Seattle area drug addicts have any difficulty finding their cartel product of choice.

If you are part of a local health dept. you are handing out Naloxone as always, to deal with the stuff that doesn’t get reported in the big local drug bust.

 

The press has failed.

Over the past 35 years or so, newspeople have failed in their role of investigating and asking questions related to public policy.

In a free and honest society, newspeople would ask questions.

Newspeople avoid asking:

If the CIA (est 1947) serves as an advantage to the US, why does the Department of Defense have such a poor record of winning undeclared wars going back to 1949, the year DOD was established?

Under Kristi Noem

Cartels move product into all 50 states.

DEA High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas:

“…HIDTA-designated counties are located in 50 states…”

Welcome Home Troops. Thanks for doing time/risking your ass in Iraq and Afghanistan, working to keep a post 911 USA safe & secure.

Americans were told that they faced a life and death situation after 911. If certain actions were not taken, terrorists could come to America to disrupt our way of life and attempt another 911.

If all this was a life and death situation that required sending the troops to Iraq and Afghanistan, wouldn’t it be important to ask a few public policy questions about what was going on?

Newspeople have a long history of not asking questions in this area.

Lessons Learned?

Anytime there is a plane crash, a loss at sea, or an industrial accident, a thorough investigation takes place. Lessons learned are used to prevent future accidents.

Any similar effort after a big drug bust?

Newspeople show zero curiosity in finding out how cartel product was able to move past Noem/Trump border security and on into WA.

What we get now is sort of a press release style of news reporting where a statement is prepared by whatever agency was involved in the latest policy update, drug bust/federal grant money award, etc.

Newspeople post this statement as is. A 5th grade book report would require more in the way of asking questions.

The press has failed.

Over the past 35 years or so, newspeople have failed in their role of investigating and asking questions related to public policy.

These guys were also never waiting on the overthrow of Saddam Hussein or the take down of any other bad guy in distant lands, as DOD defends the constitution, etc.

Public Records Request

It is very common that public offices in various states will say something like: Go to our website to submit your public records request online.

They would prefer the person with the camera leave the office as soon as possible.

It is common in various states that open records laws allow the public records request to be submitted in person orally or in writing and that the public records request may be made anonymously.

Public records laws set up an open door policy for people to go and interact in person with government offices and agencies during normal business hours at public offices.

Tyrant Terminator Audits!!! is a favorite channel where he has explained all this over and again in public offices.
