I think the DOD issued the same warning at the same time. From the office of SECDEF. The irony.

God,
Sorry.
Those MAGA folks are on an audacious tear down here.
Send help.
Divine intervention may be needed.
Thanks,
The not crazy folks.

Thank you, George, that is very wise.

True.
It’s illegal to hold such meetings and not document them as part of the public record.
BTW, using Signal kind of shows NOT documenting the meeting was the intent.

Sounded like he almost said it, “destroyed”. “Peace through strength”, was a Reagan philosophy. Primarily, having more weapons than “they” have. It did work. Then.

Important memo.
States the obvious.
Actions likely to be a simple resistance.

Well, yeah.
Of course.
Playtime was fun in Mar-a-Lago.
Not quite working out like the game-time, eh?

Thank you for stating the obvious to those who never took civics.

True.
It’s criminal to post war plans to Signal.

Brilliant observation. Without quoting capital, market, or labor theorists, isn’t it simple enough to understand that human beings are at least as important as theoretical capital or cash in hand?

Understood.
Agreed.
Eating for the extralegal orders to come.
Some will refuse unlawful orders.
Forecast: Heavy Shitstorm.

weapons were worth. This might be a better argument: re-arm Ukraine with the Nuclear Weapons they gave up, and then talk about the price of precious metals.
Just trying to be fair and true to what we promised. By treaty. If we can’t honor our treaties, nothing we say or sign means anything…

weapons. It was a treaty signed by Ukraine, US and Russia. It was ratified by congress, so we have gotten a good deal, only sending weapons, when we promised to send troops, to defend Ukraine.
I’m thinking than when we demand reparations, we should also consider the value of what the nuclear

That is not the question.
The question remains: who keeps the territory of Ukraine?
The Russians or the Ukrainians?
We signed the Belgrade Treaty, agreeing to protect the territory of Ukraine, militarily.
So did the Russians.
In exchange, the Ukrainians agreed to give up their nuclear weapons.

I like.
Very much.
Two different species prove that a lasting friendship can be forged between two different kinds of creatures. I find this is an example of what’s possible between the L and R. Ds and Rs. It can happen, on common ground.
I speak from the center.
With hope.
It’s still possible.

trust funds during the past 40 years. Now that the time to “pay back” those funds, people are resistant. The opinion is that this is “stealing”. I agree. The taxes for these trust funds are owed. They should not be challenged. Stop whining. Raise taxes. Pay the money back.
Easy peasy.

I differ a this issue a bit.
The debt, and its interest are a result of defense spending that we spent, but did not raise tax rates to collect the needed money.
If you track the SS and Medicaid trust funds, the government has collected more than it spent for decades, even “borrowing” from those

World Hunger is a huge challenge.
But, what starts to become clear is that the empty belly’s live where no substantial agriculture exists. Quite a problem.
Some wisdom would imply that they need to move.
What are your thoughts?

MSNBC is not a threat. They do a lot of reporting most of it is excellent. Some left wing opinion boosts.
From the center, I say I prefer it to right wing Fox, who sometimes makes reference to stories that are not fact.

That’s delusional, I think. Forcing others to believe what you believe, whether true or not, is a sign of mental illness, or just being a.bully. Unsure.

I’m reminded of a line in a movie, when the meaning of the name, “Abby Normal” becomes relevant. “Abby, abby…someone”.

Just believing that something is real does not make it reality.

Reality comes from understanding what is factually in our presence. Have some of us lost that understanding?
