Part of me is cackling with glee that guys who have been operators for 30+ years have to fly halfway around the world to hear about lethality from a National Guard Major in Civil Affairs. Welcome to the resistance Generals/Admirals!

Brilyn Hollyhand was captured at the Battle of the Bastards but Jon Snow spared his life and sent him to the Wall.

No matter what this meeting is about, Pete will always be a National Guardsman assigned to a Civil Affairs unit who got a bunch of crusader tattoos in his 40s because he wants you to think he's a cool, war-criming operator instead of an extremely online wife-beating loser

It’s Stanislav Petrov Day when a guy discarded doctrine, training, and the computer to correctly assume the US wouldn’t launch just one missile at the Soviet Union. If Grok and OpenAI existed in 1983 we’d all be dead today

Real post on another network:

Pretty funny that the Arizona heritage uniform they are wearing tonight makes them look like someone blew a giant diarrhea shit on them

he was instrumental in getting trump to pardon war criminals during trump’s first term and is participating in war crimes at the moment. i bet if you pushed him just a little bit he’d tell you that his much vaunted “warrior mindset” just means a willingness to kill civilians

You have to think that if there is anyone who knows where old bodies are buried and has contacts with people who know where recent bodies are buried it’s this guy

"Fear is the tool of a tyrant...But I'm not afraid, and I hope you're not either."

These phony charges demanded by Trump as an act of vengeance are a direct assault on the rule of law in the United States, and an act of staggering corruption. Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in American history, and it isn't close. abcnews.go.com/US/former-fb...

Friend of mine heard her in networks a hypothesis that this was for administering a personal oath to Trump. Pure speculation, and I’d like to think many if not most flag officers recognize the historical implications, but would be consistent with Trump’s desire for generals like Hitler had

Democrats need to: 1) take this seriously 2) threaten Patel right back, promising that he will be personally investigated the very week Democrats retake power

Gotta wonder who the genius was who planted a smelly ass ginko tree next to a heavily used bus stop

The Yezhovshchina got 13/15 army commanders, 8/9 admirals, 50/57 corps commanders, and 154/186 division commanders Good luck sirs/ma’ams!

General Officer Squid Games So good.

I think it would be helpful if DA Bragg charged a few of these assaults. If the agents think that federal law immunizes them for actions that would result in ordinary New Yorkers being charged, let them litigate it.

Also: when a government acts brutally and lawlessly and immorally, but tells you that pointing those things out incites violence and terrorism, that government and its agents are entitled to no respect or credence.

These animals need to see hard jail time

All the flag officers bringing their cellphones to one place How convenient

Spending tonight furiously trying to figure out how to erase my hours counter in Steam for Paradox Plaza games. Just in case.

How about WWI revisionism? I’ll start - fuck them Serbs, the UK should have stayed out of the war and told the French they are on their own. Shouldn’t have created that fake country Belgium anyway.

Say what you will about Sliwa, the idea that you could bribe the guy is absurd. He lives in a studio apartment with 16 cats while seemingly knowing every influential New Yorker. If he cared about money, he would have done something about it by now.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

A “sexual matador” So in other words, he gets out of the way of the bull.

One of the things pounded into head while I was a contractor was that it isn’t just frowned upon, it is illegal to provide the Feds with free labor

Good morning. Nobody 3.5 year ago ever imagined that not only would Russia NOT have air superiority over Ukraine, but that Ukraine would be able to bomb Russian targets in Russia almost without intercept. Russia is failing

This is the exact answer Magda Goebbles would give to the Volkischer Beobacter

If there is anyone who can bail the VA GOP out of their impending 15 point wipe out it’s the guy who fired thousands of Virginians this year.

Guess we’re gonna see the pee tape after all

The eye rolling in the chamber is going to disrupt the Earth’s rotation

Errol abused toddlers. Groomed a toddler to become his wife years later. Makes you wonder about the true nature of the relationship between Musk and his father. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/23/w...

Pretty fucking sure there’s a word in Arabic that means submission, lol. It’s a famous one. I bet you know it.

The Trump Administration yearns for The Hague

Aside from the usual corruption never let these guys scream 'stolen valor' because a Dem mispronounces one of his ribbons again. Noem has never served, dresses up in SEAL kit, and has stolen housing reserved for military officers so she can fuck her psycho racist boyfriend who really runs DHS.

I think there is going to be a lot of blinks And then there will be a “show of force” And the backlash will be historic

Conservatives love to darkly say stuff like “you aren’t prepared for what’s next, we’re not going to be moderate anymore, you have no idea what you’ve unleashed” and then cry like babies when you call them fascists

Just wait: Tylenol's gonna pay Trump $10M, and he's gonna come out next week saying that actually it's Advil that causes autism.

I’m pretty convinced that the only reason the bars and restaurants in my neighborhood haven’t suffered an ICE incursion yet is that a lot of regime functionaries live around here and patronize them. Hell they cordoned off the block once so the couch fucker could go to the pizza place

My man David Byrne released a new album this month

I was working in the theater when this came out. 95 was a murders row of good movies. When I was there we had Heat and Usual Suspects and 12 Monkeys Clueless and Friday and Toy Story and Hackers and Crimson Tide and Casino and Babe and Leaving Las Vegas and Get Shorty and Rumble In the Bronx and

"a time of healing, a time of whatever" is an absolute banger unfortunately

the admiral in this convo understands that deliberately killing civilians is a war crime and people who do it are war criminals

This is GenX erasure As usual

Has Vance or Trump announced Totaler Krieg at the Kirkemburg Rally yet?

The local Fox station in DC is showing that fucking Nuremberg rally instead of football What kind of bullshit is that

I keep seeing people compare Trump to Tony Soprano. This is unfair. Tony had little tolerance for acquaintances who took advantage of underage girls. sopranos.fandom.com/wiki/Coach_D...

"They turned off their transponder.." NO THEY DID NOT! SO frustrated with the misled defeatist attitude of ppl tracking aircraft in the Carribbean. It's VERY possible to passively observe more 🇺🇸 military activity with more radio receivers feeding the network near Venezuela 🇻🇪.
