Wise words
EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas privately told lawmakers the state of the world meant it might be a “good moment” to start drinking. politico.eu/article/eu-chi…
What a legendary run by Katy Perry. 2010- Released iconic song “Teenage Dream” 2010 - becomes the first women to have 5 number one hits on on album 2012 - Ditched Russell Brand (loser) 2015 - Headlines Super Bowl Halftime 2018-2024 - American idol judge 2025- becomes an…
Doesn’t matter. This did not require deadly use of force. If someone did this in Iraq or Afghanistan, they would have been subject to uniformed code of military justice and charged with war crimes. Someone who just completed basic training would know to take out the engine…
Everyone needs to watch from this angle pls - this officer was in front of her car as she accelerated. Shows much more than the video everyone is posting.
Honored to have my article on Ukraine selected for Gen. Randy A. George’s Recommended Articles (Dec/Jan). Grateful to the @Harding_Project, @USArmyCSA, and @USArmy for the recognition. See more at the link: armyupress.army.mil/Resources/CSA-… Original article link: mwi.westpoint.edu/beyond-fpvs-le…
Neither country cares about moral clarity or superiority - they are working in the direct naked interest of their administrations. The objection would be through the use of military force, if any. That’s the only one that matters at the end of the day.
If Xi Jinping invaded Taiwan right now, and toppled the president there, on what grounds would the United States object? Or have any credibility to say anything?
During operations like this, keep the average Citizen top of mind. It’s extremely dangerous and the chances of mass instability are high. The succession plan is critical. Let’s hope the WH has put the work in to make sure it’s a peaceful transfer.
"The United States of America has successfully carried out a large scale strike against Venezuela and its leader, President Nicolas Maduro, who has been, along with his wife, captured and flown out of the Country. This operation was done in conjunction with U.S. Law Enforcement.…
Sequencing that aims to put pressure on Ukraine, not the other way around.
Once again, Putin speaks with Trump before the president meets with Zelensky
All of this should have happened already. I love @RepDonBacon outlook here but this seems extremely far fetched that any of this will happen.
In the meetings between Presidents Trump and Zelenskyy today, we should have 100% clarity on the following: Putin started this war to satisfy his imperialistic ambitions. Putin bombs innocent civilians. Ukraine is the democracy and & Putin murders his rivals. Putin won’t stop…
2025 did feel a bit like a warm up to what 2026 will bring. Buckle up!
“the past year has been tough for all of us, but don't worry because next year will be even worse." - italy pm giorgia meloni
Deeply unserious. This is massive blunder by the Trump admin. Greenland is certainly a major part of national security (and western hemisphere) but crushing alliances and using this type of rhetoric will only make this endeavor more difficult. It will take years to undo this…
Hey Louisiana, I’m not going anywhere! As a Cajun, my family and families like mine have lived under more flags than anyone in the continental US. There is no better flag for freedom and opportunity than the flag of the United States. I look forward to sharing that message…
I would love to see the war gaming where battleships play a critical role in future conflicts. With the advancements in autonomous vehicles across domains, I can’t see them returning to the glory of WWII. Although they certainly have a role in security but I’m not sure it’s worth…
The future Trump Class Battleship USS DEFIANT will be the largest, deadliest, most versatile, and best-looking warship anywhere on the world’s oceans. I want to thank @POTUS for his vision to make this game-changing capability a reality for America’s Navy.
Chaos, instability, and ruining our alliances is the only way to describe the Trump admin.
TRUMP on Greenland: "We need Greenland for national security." "We have to have it."
Inject this bipartisanship into my veins. Let this set the example of how it should be done in many cases moving forward.
.@RepThomasMassie & I announce that we are bringing inherent contempt against Bondi. DOJ cowers & re-releases the 119 page document, now with "minimal redactions." Massie & I are different. We do not just do memes or speeches. We take action to fight a corrupt system.
