Would be VERY funny if a side effect of this horrendous war is degrading of US ability to intimidate and bully the rest of the world as everyone watches the missile stockpile run dry.

The problem with Mullin isn't that he doesn't have a Bachelor's Degree. Lots of very smart people don't have Bachelor's Degrees. And I'd even say you can be smart enough to run a government department without one.
The problem with Mullin is that he's an evil fascist.
You are in for a treat.

so Iran has apparently knocked out and destroyed / disabled to some extent two U.S. THAAD batteries
This is a massive deal. Aside from the expense, this is not a weapon system we just have a ton of lying around. You don't replace these easily.

Probably first major US loss of the conflict when it comes to ballistic missile defense. One of TPY-2 radars belonging to the THAAD battery deployed to Muwaffaq Salti Airbase in Jordan seems to have been struck. The full radar set goes over $200M.

Maybe even a step down, honestly. I mean, sure, he hasn't been banned from the rez, but I think if he was from a Northern Plains tribe, where we still curse Custer's name and particularly the scouts who helped him, MWM might get an even worse reception than the Gnome.
Give him time, tho.
As any Oklahomans with a sense of decency can tell you, Markwayne Mullen aka the guy who tried to rip the "I am a Man" sign from Al Green's hands, is a lateral move from Noem and nothing to celebrate.

My earlier post about Mullen was very much a gutcheck reaction of righteous fury, and typos aside, I stand by it.
But this is the sort of thing I mean when I say he's made it clear in his actions he holds no meaningful connections and doesn't know the first thing about being cherokee.
A great miracle!

Antiochus IV got his ass whipped by Egypt and wanted to make an example of a small client state to prove he was still tough.
But it turned out his overstretched, bedraggled military was no longer up to the task, and said state ended up gaining its independence from his empire.
Funny story, this is actually kind of how we ended up with Chanukah.

Is it an ideal way for it all to go down? No. But that's what happens when you throw a years-long tantrum that destroys the entire international order and drag your crappy empire down along with it.
Regardless, IT COULD HAPPEN!

They will throw our entire domestic budget at rebuilding it, but it takes two years to manufacture a [racist name redacted] missile. This isn't a problem they can just wish away.

New Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin is enrolled in the Cherokee Nation.
But that doesn't make him someone Native or any other people should respect. He's a MAGA POS who will lead a fascist militarized agency that harms tens of thousands of people, many of them Indigenous.

This shows the sort of data that Proton Mail, which prides itself both on end-to-end encryption and that it's only governed by Swiss privacy law, can provide to third parties. In this case, the FBI. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

The Israeli military says that it dropped roughly 4,000 bombs during its illegal 12-day war last June, and that it had already surpassed that by Tuesday, the fourth day of the new U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.
