Color me seriously unimpressed. Houthis will make the sands a graveyard for any TK or PAK troops & TK/PAK airpower will be ineffective. GR & IA & IN will be minor winners if TK or PAK actually deploy. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/10...

You don't get to claim you are treating anything with "seriousness" after you assert that "narco-terrorist cartels are our hemisphere's ISIS." The further beclowning of US counterterrorism.

Trump is selling nuclear tech to Saudi Arabia despite reported US intelligence that the Saudis still want a bomb—while the Trumps have taken billions in bribes from the Saudis. This is Trump corruption at the expense of US national security. Stop the deal.

I think the smarter play is to run for Senate. Except for Garfield—a near unknown dark horse in a extended convention—is the only person to ascend directly from the House to the Presidency. My dark horse favorite is Jon Ossoff.

Greece would be foolish to rely on Israel to support Greece in any conflict w/ Turkey. IA will sell advanced weapons to Greece to support its arms industry—probably at better prices than on U.S. equipment. IA would love to use GR as a cat’s paw against Turkey. neoskosmos.com/en/2026/09/2...

Do you know how much the pay of CEOs at major companies has skyrocketed since 1978? 50%? 100%? 500%? Try 1,316% Meanwhile, the typical workers’ compensation increased only 28%. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

CEO pay is up 1,316% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 28%. CEOs are now paid 325 TIMES as much as the typical worker in their industry, according to @epi.org Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Of more importance is the eventual elimination of the TUs from already limited conventional strike roles against Ukraine or NATO. RUs long range strike weapons will be limited to short range ballistic missiles & drones, FBs are already largely off the table due to air defenses. Putin is still losing
