Why does the military need $200 billion for a war we've won?

The latest as they go

I thought we would've figured out oil dependence is a national security risk a long time ago. Now solar is literally the cheapest form of energy

My latest: Putin Is Helping our Enemy in Iran He should be punished for that decision, not rewarded for it. michaelmcfaul.substack.com/p/putin-is-h...

It would be the latest as they go

🇨🇦🇨🇦 People who drive EV’s and power their homes with Solar and Wind don’t care quite as much about skyrocketing oil prices….

What if states where they thought they could win one at least had a non-binding referendum on declaring "no confidence" in Trump and his administration (regime). No legal effect, but a no confidence vote from several states would make him look bad, something he hates

This, from the former US ambassador to Russia 🇷🇺 Putin is helping our enemy in Iran He should be punished for that decision, not rewarded for it.

The president of the United States, folks.😕 Surely all who condemned the Charlie Kirk reaction will condemn Trump for this. Right? (cc: @MarshaBlackburn ) Our kids are watching.

My question is, who's gonna want to fly with ICE manning the security checkpoints??

I would not find comfort in it if our allies were suffering more than we were due to our own irresponsible warmaking. But in any event, seems to me those countries who invested in "green energy scams" are feeling the impact LESS now.

At the rate they are spending, they will be back in 6 months for more if this is authorized. The proper amount of money to allocate to this undertaking is $0.

the same number of troops have died in this war that died in the evacuation of afghanistan fyi, weird how the media has decided that isn’t a point to drive home this time

“Help or we take Greenland” is a wild escalation ladder.

He told y’all he was going to be a dictator but some of y’all helped him get re-elected

www.msn.com/en-us/news/w... The sitting President of the United States is 100% compromised by Russian Intelligence! And no-one in Washington, DC wants to even mention this. How many times per week does he talk, openly! to Putin?

Trump obeys Putin in all things. The Russian dictator's control of Trump is absolute. Trump will lash out angrily whenever U.S. intelligence agencies, European allies or Ukrainians bring up facts that contradict Putin's narrative about Russia's war on Ukraine.

❗️Ukrainian experts in the Middle East were shocked by US air defense tactics, citing the use of up to 8 Patriot missiles per drone and $6M interceptors against $70K UAVs, while poorly concealed radars were destroyed by cheap drones, The Times reports.

Every old guy with one too

It sort of begs the question that if they don't know about that doc, which has been extensively reported on in open sources, what less obvious cues are our IC missing, overlooking, ignoring or out-and-out hiding??

Pretty wild that Trump just appointed JD Vance as a Fraud Czar to go after scammers right after he pardoned his 35th different wealthy crony convicted of fraud so far during this term with many more to come.

“.. Since the President’s inauguration last year, national debt has climbed by around $2.8 trillion.” @time.com time.com/article/2026...

If they describe the pilot as being in "stable condition" after the plane was hit, one might reasonably infer the pilot was WOUNDED by the hostile fire, perhaps to a degree requiring hospitalization.

I think it's fascinating listening to all these R congresspeople from Alabama who think they know NYC

Be careful, DOJ will investigate you for leaking classified information about war plans (only halfway lol)

Owners of Stellantis EVs can finally access America's largest and best charging network.

It's pretty clear Putin told Trump to destroy America from the inside and Trump is absolutely nailing it.

Sounds like a Sean Duffy solution

FTR, Japan DID attempt to send a long ultimatum to the US to be delivered just before the attack on PH started, but it was not delivered until the attack was underway due to delays in decoding and translation at the Japanese embassy in DC. So at least in a way, Trump has his history wrong again.

About 70% of the U.S. economy runs on consumer spending. But as wealth concentrates at the top, the richest 10% can’t spend enough to sustain it — while everyone else can’t afford to. Reminder that trickle-down economics simply doesn’t make sense. It’s a hoax.

A book I bet none of Trump's minions ever read is "The Role of Airpower in the Iran-Iraq War", published by US Air Force's Air University Press in 1988, particularly the section "Cultural Factors Affecting Strategy" discussing how Iran views victory and loss: www.airuniversity.af.edu/Portals/10/A...

TUCKER: “Was Iran on the verge of getting a nuclear weapon?” JOE KENT: “No. And they weren’t in June either.”

Seems like the longer Trump occupies the office, the more Putin wins

Venezuela won the World Baseball Classic for the first time, rebounding from a blown eighth-inning lead to beat the United States 3-2 Tuesday night on Eugenio Suárez's tiebreaking double in the ninth n.pr/4bhC325

A new study says gas prices are expected to rise five times as much as EV charging costs due to the Iran oil shock.

PROF. PAPE: "I’ve studied every air campaign since World War 1. I’ve modeled the bombing of Iran for 20 years. Air power alone has NEVER toppled a government… it only brings in more aggressive replacements.”

Iran’s crisis is punishing every Western nation that bet its entire future on fossil fuels. Skyrocketing prices, supply shocks, and lost leverage — this is what over-dependence looks like. Nations, open your eyes: Fossil fuels don’t give you energy security. They steal it. #EnergyCrisis #Iran

This man did far more fighting for the US than anyone in the cabinet or the White House. And he died one day after being taken to an American concentration camp. One day. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.

The overwhelming lesson of current events is that all sane countries should be switching from fossil fuels to wind, solar and renewables and deploying new battery tech not just for environmental reasons but also for reasons of resilience and national defense.

High gas prices got you down? From the Tesla Model 3 to the new Chevy Bolt, these are the cheapest new EVs you can buy in America.

If Ukraine really wants to shake things up, they should figure out a way to swoop in and snatch it

Pretty sure you do not need to have ID to have a child; in fact, if you are some place like TX, they will MAKE you have the child whether you have ID or not.

The cry of a bully that just got kicked in the nuts

Putin hates America. He will do anything he can to weaken our country.
