Democrats losing support from independents

 Daily Torch:

...

The correlations are not perfectly proportional, but independent voters’ preferences tend to predict the party that wins power in the midterm election cycle. Looking ahead to 2026, Democrats could struggle significantly to regain the power they hope to, particularly considering approval ratings for Democrats are far worse than for Republicans among independents.

Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
