This report is rightly generating headlines & discussion. For me it shows why we shouldn’t go down the route of trying to match Russian capabilities - but should focus on our own strengths esp emerging defence tech to boost combat power, deter & if needed defeat RU www.bruegel.org/analysis/def...

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

Here we go. Certain generals must be removed before any martial law plan is put into action—as Trump and Hegseth are worried there may still be some generals out there who support the Constitution rather than his proposed dictatorship. This is a political purge intended as a precursor to far more.

“The DOGE website included a screenshot from the federal contracting database showing that the contract’s value was $8 million, but the site still claimed $8 billion in savings. Even the $8 million is an upper bound…Since $2.5 million had already been spent… canceling it saved $5.5 million at most.”

Elon Musk has now illegally fired: - USDA employees amidst a bird flu outbreak - FAA chair amid a plane crash epidemic - People in charge of protecting us from nuclear attack At this point Musk has to be considered a terrorist attacking the United States.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.
