I'm glad I don't live real close to a major metro area. DC is closest but also downwind. You know what I mean.
Best is yet to come. Now the hackers will engage our infrastructure, critical systems, secure sites. Iranians will be joined by Russian and Chinese because, from their perspective, why not. Banks are going to close, elec grids go down, critical sites will be locked up. trump didn't think first.
We are learning a lot about despots and how they do business.
And you put it on repeat and sing along until your voice sounds about right.
Let me tell you about end of year spending IN A RATIONAL GOVERNMENT WITH INTELLIGENT LEADERS. It's always been a use or lose situation so you generally start pushing around July to spend your monies. What you buy is durable items that you always need but don't get money for. Not bullshit spending.
All that has been accomplished is to reenergize middle eastern hate for us. And put them in the mood to bring it back here to our homeland.
Don't be so negative. We could add waterboarding and caning options and maybe stocks with a slap me sign?
Wouldn't take much to link it to a conveyer belt and automate the whole process. Heck, you and I could knock out a prototype in the garage in a couple of weekends.

Bill Russell, ahhh, those were the days! What a great man.
Dear Republican Senate, you should reconsider the war powers act vote. Reining trump in now might be saving him. think about it.

He's just the big version of the abusive husband.
Every child that has died of measles is a start.
She's just another in a long line of monsters loose in the land.
Throw shit at the wall and see what sticks. I hope not too much sticks to us.
We may be about to find out what Iran has learned about asymmetric warfare from Ukraine. Putting big ships in harms way is nuts, somebody is going to try out one of the sea-skimming hypersonic missiles against us. This is bad all around.
As a retired senior officer I can tell you I would have been furious if one of my subordinate commanders did this. Can't be widespread but any leader that did this needs stepped on.
