A screenshot of the official declassified linked document:

"Memorandum From the Military Assistant to the Presidentʼs Assistant for National Security Affairs (Odom) to the Presidentʼs Assistant for National Security Affairs (Brzezinski)

Washington, March 15, 1980

SUBJECT
Threat Assessment Conference Call on Missile Warning

The NMCC convened a “Threat Assessment Conference Call” last night at 2132 hours. Launches from the Kurile Island site were detected, not unusual, but the “fan” of one of the missile tracks included Alaska, Canada, and the tip of Oregon. At that point, NORAD and the NMCC convened the Threat Assessment Conference. It was terminated five minutes later when the impact of both missiles were determined to be in Kamchatka. (S)

The procedures worked well within the White House. I was in the call by one minute after it was convened. The duty officers at NORAD and the NMCC sorted out the “anomalies” in the computer displays quickly. They might have avoided the Threat Assessment Conference, but I heard enough on the line to realize that convening it was prudent. (S)

Other procedures went as well. SAC readiness changed at 2130 hours. The NEACP began rolling at 2132 hours. (S)

Daily Report Item

The National Military Command Center convened a Missile Threat Assessment Conference Call at 2132 hours on March 14. Soviet launches from the Kurile Island site were detected, not unusual, but the “fan” of one of the two missile tracks included Alaska, Canada, and the tip of Oregon. At that point, NORAD and NMCC decided that a threat assessment was appropriate. The conference terminated ve minutes later when the impact of both missiles were determined to be in Kamchatka. (S)

The procedures within the White House worked well. The duty officers at NORAD and the NMCC sorted out the anomalies in the missile attack displays quickly. Other procedures also proceeded smoothly. SAC readiness changed at 2130 hours. The NEACP began to roll at 2132 hours. (S)" A 1976 color photograph of the National Military Command Center (aka the "War Room") inside the Pentagon. Six large display screens dominate a wall in the background at left while in the foreground Army Lt. Col. Benjamin Russell and Army Maj. William Stubbs, are on telephones at the T-shaped Conference Management Table. Consoles in front of them are equipped with microphones, small video monitors, and various buttons and switches.

Today in 1980 at 9:32 PM EDT, NORAD and the National Military Command Center convened a Threat Assessment Conference Call because two Soviet ballistic missiles launched from the Kurile Islands appeared headed toward Alaska, Canada, and the tip of Oregon. nsarchive.gwu.edu/document/318...

a man says the pattern here is clear in front of a map Alt: a clean shaven white man wearing glasses and a white button up shirt with sleeves rolled up and a diagonally striped tie is on a news room set in front of a map gesturing largely with his right hand and saying “the pattern here is clear”

2/n

Let’s be clear:

Trump’s unnecessary, unjust, & unwise war w/Iran builds upon a series of escalating illegal, yet carried out & uncensured by Congress, military actions.

How terrifying to ask what Trump could do next, given recent precedent, if we leave Trump et al Regime in power.

‘Worst nightmare’: anger and frustration as Gulf states bear brunt of war they did not start Closure of strait of Hormuz puts pressure on region’s economies amid growing resentment about conflict started by US and Israel

Trump pissing off & destabilizing an entire region by…

*checks notes*

…a poorly planned & aggressive war against Iran (w/Israel) is the sort of thing to be expected given military & congress enabling of Trump’s petty, impulsive, ignorant, MANLY GENDERED, & detached from reality whims.

Here’s a fun fact, the facility the US uses to build aircraft carriers was built to build oil tankers.

You can fit more than two aircraft carriers in it.

a man in a black shirt is making a funny face and says oh please not again Alt: Tom Hardy a clean a muscular clean shaven white man with short brown hair in his 40s is in a chair wearing a black shirt saying, “oh, please not again” while reaching up and clasping head with hands.

as I look at world in this moment also reminded of this verse from the 5-volume Ming dynasty novel of manners “Plum in the Golden Vase” (trans Roy):

“Though the preceding carriages have overturned by the thousands

The carriages that follow continue to overturn in the same way.”

Every day, amongst the dissociation & surreal mess…

…I am reminded of Terry Pratchett’s “Moving Pictures”:

“Why is it all Mr Dibbler’s films are set against the background of a world gone mad?’ said the dwarf. Soll’s eyes narrowed. ‘Because Mr Dibbler,’ he growled, ‘is a very observant man.’”

The "forbidden" part always gets me. These are bog standard views among the well-off and coddled. They ain't shy about their bigotry and even the more liberal are pretty indulgent of it.

Like you'll hear the same rancid shit from drunk realtors at city council open comments. Y'all ain't special.

Trump lifting sanctions on Russian oil won't ease sky rocking gas prices in Michigan and across the country. It will, however, help fund Putin's war machine in Ukraine.

As Sen. Chris Coons said this week, the only clear winner in this war with Iran is Russia.

​​'Hidden hand of Putin' behind Iranian drone attacks in Middle East, UK Defense Secretary says British military officials told Healey Iranian drones were "flying them much lower, and therefore they were more effective."

Trump finally admitted Russia was providing'a little help' to Iran yesterday. Sounds like more than a little.

What the U.S. Government Is Dismissing That Could Seed a Bird Flu Pandemic Egg producers suspect bird flu is traveling through the air. After a disastrous Midwestern outbreak early this year, we tested that theory and found that where the wind blew, the virus followed. Vacci...

To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines.

The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.

Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: “The minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”
