All my political interests in one picture

I will always be a coastal elite at heart, but island life is very tempting

Never leaving this island

Go for broke!

We might actually be in a PME simulation and the lights are about to flick on and some dude is gonna look at a room full of military Officers and tell them they all just failed

The worst people of miltwitter are big mad because @jackmurphyrgr.bsky.social was right. They also are desperately searching twitter for examples of “leftists” rooting against America and the recovery mission Let me repeat, they are mad that Jack was right and hoping he wasn’t but mad at…

Konrad is dumb. That’s a given. But the sentiment that there are “no boots on ground” is absurd. Kuwait, Syria, Iraq, Bahrain, Qatar..that’s where the war is right now. Missiles are hitting Soldiers and Soldiers are dying. If those places aren’t “the war” then why are they getting hit?

Watch Reddit is both the best of humanity and the worst. You have posts like this but also posts where dudes cheer on a guy for getting his first Seiko. I love it.

I deserving this phenomenon as the “you get what I mean” theory These dudes will talk fast, in a direct to camera cadence and confidently make extremely absolutist statements When confronted by facts that destroy their arguments, they will simply say “you get what I mean though”

CSAR showed some huge balls today. This thing is alot dicer than it may even appear, lots of aircraft are taking fire. One reaper shot down.

I’m sure the guy who famously said he preferred troops who don’t get captured will take this seriously Godspeed to those pilots. Praying for a safe return.

Coming to grips with the fact many of the people in your life hold seriously flawed views is a strange feeling. Definitely makes you feel cowardly not taking direct action but also helpless knowing it won’t change anything Conversely, it’s so nice to learn people you didn’t expect share your values

They are flooding the zone to distract from Iran and the disaster of a speech. Bondi, George, other GOs….im sure more firings coming. Hoping to get all the bad news out of the way now and hope we all get sidetracked (spoiler: we will)

It’s such a culture war bit that actual leaders will now have to deal with. Especially since he’s using the 2nd amendment as the reasoning Put aside the 1st amendment or the 4th - just thinking practically, do we allow students to carry in school houses? Take personal weapons to field? During PT?

This is the correct take in normal times. But I also believe whoever he picks is a zealot who will insert themselves into things the CSA normally didn’t because that’s the whole reason he would have been picked.

The second and third order effects of carrying weapons on post are astronomical- such a dumb and dangerous idea Nightmare for post commanders, security forces, school houses, etc Incredibly dumb. Beyond dumb. So on par for this administration

How could he fire her, the Dow is at- *taps ear piece* Never mind

So we are gonna do a ground invasion and then he’ll pretend like he told everyone because he gave this vague slurring incoherent screed

Nothing says America First like saying that we lost 13 lives to a war that the President admits gives us no advantage “We don’t need their oil”

This speech is so filled with lies that fact checking it pointless. If you have so little self-respect as to believe that shit than I've got nothing for you.

Non zero chance he just launches a new cryptocurrency

Spoiler alert: there’s no academic argument to the current citizenship debate. The GOP is a political party run by contrarians and dog whistles The next fight will be “both parents need to be citizens for the child to be a citizen” and then it’ll be race and then religion. That’s the goal anyways

This admins first big test on whether or not they were serious was a tragic army aviation accident that resulted in numerous deaths. Glad to see they’ve learned their lesson.

I've had this conversation with other veterans for years and it is just beyond a lot of them. They think you can stand up alliances and airfields ad hoc crisis to crisis. I don't understand how someone who served in the military could think it works like that. But hey, America first, or something

Freedom fries are back on the menu

Fonts/colors don’t matter as long as it’s legible and makes sense. Many people who lament slideology (not say this is the case here) simply don’t understand this and snip/screenshot excel or graphs and they make no sense and can’t be understood

Opening the strait (that wasn’t closed) by destroying a military (that was already destroyed) via a ground invasion (that would never happen) to stop a nuclear threat (that was obliterated 6 months ago) to own the libz.

Point: this is absurd, not even this Senate would allow it. Counterpoint: we live in the dumbest timeline possible

I’m at the age where I instinctively yell “don’t let me pass you” when I’m going the AFT

Take out the merits of going to war with Iran. It’s somewhat ironic that the anti-globalists elected a dude, who proved more than ever, that globalism clearly keeps countries in check (to a certain degree). The interconnected markets are clearly guardrails - let’s see if they hold

Miltwitter recap: - Walz = bad (even though military) - Kent = good (he was military) - Mueller = bad (even though military) - VA disability = bad or good (depending on your MOS) - Kent = bad (I said good before but wrong politics now) - credentials = bad (unless you want to talk VA disability)

Words can’t fully describe the camps. I would assume that Iraq/Afghanistan simply sucked up the oxygen when it came to focusing on Syria but after all these years later I’m still so surprised at how many people didn’t realize the size/scale of deployments in Syria were.

IDTs will be cancelled towards the end of the fiscal year. NGB is broke and will soon become even broker.

Miltwitter personalities truly feel like they are the vanguard of strategy and war fighting - they consider Bluesky woke left commies focused on feelings not lethality That being said, miltwitter is engulfed in a debate on VA benefits while Bluesky is debating the nuances of amphibious assaults

He calls it a special military operation, he hits energy infrastructure, he’s most famous for ramping up attacks during negotiations….but besides that…way different!

I’ve been deployed many times. I’ve never been served lobster. Nor would I have trusted the seafood or our cooks (no offense).

1. Just do universal healthcare - that would solve a lot of the problems these benefits are meant to solve 2. Vet community would still be upset bc there definitely is a cottage industry and culture of “get what you can get” 3. Hilarious DOGE is like “we have a plan…but also please DM us”

I rest my case.

The JCPOA but we get a younger ayatollah, higher gas prices, give more money to Iran and burn through 200 billion of our own. Checkmate libs.

Went on CBS Eyes on Vets to discuss Iran, sleeper cells, and Joe Kent's resignation. cms.megaphone.fm/channel/CBS7...

56D chess! Checkmate China!

Are we human? Or are we dancer? Well now we know

Anyone who thinks Cuba is somehow vital to China or that VZ giving us oil means China is will silently go into the night is not worth talking to. Insane cope.

Also I feel like it's understood context by everyone here but worth saying: this is yet another reason why a moronic war of choice with Iran was dumb as shit TPY-2s getting smoked by the PLARF is a baked in cost; it's expected in a war with Iran, but it wasn't supposed to be a cost of business

The best part about Trump is how he constantly cucks his supporters. Tweet after tweet from miltwitter experts about how wrong this 60 minutes segment was and then Trump just says what she says.

Exactly. Miltwitter right now is a bunch of dudes crying about the fact Pizza Hut doesn’t make cheeseburgers.
