Cage masts were a distinguishing feature of US battleships from the 1900s until the 1930s.
They thought would be less susceptible to damage and isolate fire control equipment from shock. They failed at the latter and proved vulnerable to weather.
They were replaced with tripod masts in the 1930s

KHive is going to be really mad at this criticism of Kamala Harris on Palestine coming from, uh, Kamala Harris.
"Pressed for an actual misstep, she [Harris] added not doing more to pressure Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel for how he was waging the Gaza war “as it related to innocent Palestinians.”
Harris in an interview with the New York Times concedes that the Biden admin should have done more.

Border Patrol agents are the scum of the Earth.
Border Patrol agents were captured on video chasing a young mother, who says she is a U.S.-born citizen, back to her home in Louisiana. According to Homeland Security, agents initially believed the woman was the target of an immigration enforcement operation, but later left without making arrests.

The US once had a pre-dreadnought museum ship. USS Oregon (BB-3), an Indiana class battleship was a museum in her home state from 1925 until 1942.
Once World War II began, the Navy reclaimed the ship to use as a storage hulk. She was broken up in Japan in 1956.
