'Morning, Blue Crew. Indigenous Peoples' Day is tomorrow, but I still have to work. And I don't get holiday pay for doing so. There's something fundamentally wrong with that. Oh well, first the coffee, then the things. Non illegitimi carborundum!

For the record, what are the official charges? Beyond violating Article 133 and 134, that is. Those are pretty much a given, considering they're intended as catch-alls.

To be clear: UCMJ Article 118(1) is very clear, as is the Manual for Courts Martial as regards procedure. A public execution, however, is so far beyond the pale as to need full Congressional review...which I don't expect to ever happen.

Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.

7 shots fired into an SUV with a 5-year-old child in the back seat as the vehicle was moving away. Markwayne Mullin claims the driver “weaponized” his vehicle. Bullshit! “Weaponized vehicle” has become ICE’s go-to excuse for shooting folks. Where’s the evidence? It’s not in this new footage.

Re: Trump's diesel deal with Putin Conversion factor is 7.5 barrels of diesel per metric ton. Daily global diesel consumption is around 25 million bpd. So, the initial 300,000 tons, or 2.2 million barrels, would meet global demand for about two hours.

It could have been much worse. He could have asked for Ada instead of Rust. That would have resulted in several agents getting into arguments over the programming rules of Ada.
