How the war starts can dramatically swing the outcome of point one, and if there is no war then there’s no point one at all to consider uncertainty of the odds the PRC accepts no war if point two doesn’t convert is atm the median danger question

Yeah it seems about clear as anyone that Taiwan’s hope in a nuclear situation is America’s arsenal (barring an inexplicable change of stances wrt Russia)

People are talking about cookiegate, but this response by Roger has me cynically think it’s timed to divert attention from the fact that he got caught using taxpayer money to fund his re election campaign yesterday.

This is true. In 2016, I got into an argument with a gay man on a menswear forum. I've since made it my mission to make every man dress gay, thereby destroying his ability to tell who is actually gay and, ultimately, his chances of finding love. I built my social media following to achieve that goal
Someone on Twitter writes to me: "People should follow your advise if they want to look gay."

So the Anduril pick is just pure nepotism while the GA pick is the "actual" choice?

If Marshall actually goes down then yeah it would lol, imagine in 2020 being told that Rs would hold the seat that year but not the next cycle

It's kind of crazy that the right wanted to turn Charlie Kirk into their Reichstag Fire, but instead they accidentally turned him into their Harambe

Yeah it seemed to be the best way to tackle the "he's not able to hold himself for a campaign" question by taking a swing at setting a new tone for the race - and for better or worse, it ended up being rather clearly answered.

Callais must have really rocked them to the core, if Clyburn is in favor of this then moderates are going to have a tough case not falling in line

Callais might genuinely have provoked the moderate wing into endorsing court expansion, goodness

It's a good question if America's ultimately up for it - it was the first time it ran headfirst into a similar issue (Great Depression) but TBD if it can put the same effort for a round two

This term really has reinforced to me that the game of geopolitics truly is "do you fumble more and at worse times than your opponent?"

Though I suspect this can equally end up a timeline where Japan nuclearizes lol.

I feel this should be saved for if/when Japan decides to change its tune, no?

They absolutely have to right? Like this would basically be tantamount to soft sunsetting the carrier force lol.

That's where the DoD gets hit (esp the ones where Hegseth's fingerprints are left all over them), but the Primes likely maneuver more to get the heat off their back - contrast to the VCs who likely get hosed altogether

A real roller coaster we had in Maine (where we had the fortitude to end up with arguably the best option in the end)

Really glad the Dem pol heads got around to backing him right away, prevents any exploitation or confusion in this regard on our side here

Stevens herself appears to understand this, going by how she conceded and endorsed AES this morning

Jason @jl7612.bsky.social · 05/08/2026
Stevens endorsing as quickly as she did suggests this is the direction we'll be heading towards.

Him coming out to endorse Harris against uncommitted could claim to be decisive in that regard, given how close the race turned out to be

Yeah that’s the third rail that’s preventing Trump’s actual exit - way too many powers with leverage locally will blow up that demand for it to be viable, and until Iran realizes it can’t get it at this table a true stop can‘t be had.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if BSky went nuts over something like that too.

Lakshya finding the *RV* at D+8 seems roughly in line now.

Jason @jl7612.bsky.social · 28/07/2026
His takes aside, I'm curious to see what Lakshya's GB is when the poll's out tomorrow - he's implied it's *bad* bad for Rs

In fairness, Pappas also has a far more credible overperforming rep than Stevens

Yeah the mobilization only really kicked off after the Fall of France, but between the start of the war and then industries were already working to fulfill UK/French orders

Yeah it def wasn't rounding to 0 in 1940 in total, it didn't start that late either

That program had over 2% of GDP spending for all 7 years (1963-1969) and never reached 5%. One can wonder how it would have looked if it was what people thought it was (10x that).

Jason @jl7612.bsky.social · 25/07/2026
20% going into armaments alone would be well past 20% into warfare tbf - that's hard turning off basically every civilian industry (in order to re-route it for a war) at that point.

At least the first cohort appeared to straighten out post-invasion in 2022 - the new one is tbd if they can manage it or not.

At the very minimum, her potential to be kingmaker (especially if she for whatever reason chooses not to run) is probably a fair bit higher right now than is being respected by conventional wisdom imo
