Well I see we are being treated to yet another dizzying Decapitation Strike leading to years of War right up there with Putin's glorious attempt to seize Kiev in a Coup de Main which, I hasten to add, ended in a dismal failure and apparently, endless war. Is this all they teach now in the Colleges of Command and Staff and the War College, decapitation strikes and the war is over before breakfast?
As I've noted elsewhere, these simply don't ever end the way the idiots think they will. There are always abler people ready willing and able to pick up the pieces and fight it out. It's possible that some patriot will pick up the pieces and work out a negotiated ending but do you know what the odds of that are? I can tell you how it will work out even if I can't figure the odds because some wag will shout that the new great man is an agent of Satan (little or big, doesn't matter) and he'll get killed by the first muslim fanatic that finds him alone. This is what islamic fanatics do. All the time. Every single time.
I swear the world today is exactly like watching a world run by idiots who got all their international training and experience and military expertise by watching The West Wing.

I just watched a fairly brutal attack on the Secretary of Defense and the CJCS by various democratic congress idiots and I think that in the future I would simply send my regrets if/when asked to testify before any of their committees. They are not really asking for anything they are likely to get from this Congress so there is nothing to be gained from letting nitwits and morons shower one with invective and really stupid childish attacks.
It really is a different era where none of the men and women appointed by President Trump have any expectation that anything they champion will be affirmed by Johnson the other shills and RINOs so there really isn't much point in wasting efforts there. The people that really know how to game the PPBS and chase the $ all work in the Pentagon and they can reprogram $ out the whazzoo to do whatever needs doing.
I would, I'll admit, be concerned if we were facing a potential war anywhere and thought this sort of thing would contribute to our massive unreadiness to wage war tomorrow but the problems we have in that realm defy belief and cannot be fixed in under a decade.* The ships, submarines, ammo, logistics, logistic support, base infrastructure and personnel capable of waging war aren't there and won't be for some time.
*I'm talking about fighting a peer. We can still put a hurt on just about anybody else but as we've learned to our sorrow, hurting people is not the same thing as winning a war. That requires that the other party in the war admit defeat and actually surrender. The West is completely incapable of fighting that kind of war for the next 20 or 30 years.

Sigh and Amen. We are not in the 70's anymore when we had a decent military AND the support ships-training and manufacturing base to keep it.
Worse we seem to be rent a military for those that can (cough Bribe) get the support of our self-serving compromised Congressmen.
There is a reason for all the shouting the Epstein files remain hidden. Blackmail doesn't work after the threat of release has occurred.
Hope everybody had a deep pantry, enough essential medications for a 90+ day emergency and ability to function when, not if gasoline-diesel jumps radically in price.
The true dirt in the Epstein files is long gone. The minute it disappeared into the FBI vaults in SDNY it was combed through and everything that would compromise anybody was removed so they could be compromised by the real pros in the Party. I think that's what happened to Justice Roberts and quite a few other voices that were once prominent in standing up for America's written Constitution.
