Uniform Code of Military Justice. Damn, can we get a edit button, please?

No. It's the Uniformed Code of Military Justice.

So many bad actors on every fricken SM platform, including this one, wouldn't work so hard to take your vote by encouraging you to stay home if your vote didn't matter.

Look at this thin margin. Every damned vote counts! πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Questions for Markwayne Mullin What we need to hear -- but probably won't -- from Trump's nominee to replace Kristi Noem

Radley Balko: You have no law enforcement experience. You have no military experience. You have no national security background, no experience in emergency response or intelligence. You haven’t even served on a Homeland Security committee during your time in Congress. Are you qualified to lead DHS?

I always knew the inevitable last gasps of Boomers clinging to political power would be ugly, hysterical, unhinged, and have dangerously destructive long-term consequences, but this is kind of getting out of hand.

Reality TV SM meant for the lowest common denominator among us.

Shameful.

No U.S. states had a record cold winter. Nine had a record hot one Though it may surprise East Coasters, the story of this winter was not record cold but record heat

"When folks complain that all they hear about is record warmth (β€˜Why do you never talk about the record cold?’)β€”well, this is why!"

The plan: the largest energy disrption in history is threats that backfire, reserves that expire, insurance nobody accepts, escorts that don't exist yet, and an invitation for civilians to risk their lives in a mined strait on the assurance of a prez whose own govt can't agree if the mines are there

Four recovered from the wreckage. Thing is those platforms are flying gas stations. There are also no parachutes on board for any of the crew. This is a recovery mission.

Why Escalation Favors Iran America and Israel may have bitten off more than they can chew.

"The strikes that have killed Iran’s leadership demonstrated tactical mastery. Tactical mastery, however, is not strategy...

"By widening the theater and prolonging the war, Tehran is shifting the contest from a battle of military capabilities to one of political endurance."

I was more referring to the citizenry, but you're not wrong. I think those given the intel were in the same frame of mind...that'll never happen...well, it did.

I think it's highly unlikely, but I will say this: on 10 Sep 2001 no one, and I mean no one, thought a group of guys would hijack commercial aircraft and fly them into buildings around this country.

Never say never.

BS. If it happens at all, I suspect this govt is behind it in an effort to drum up support for Trump's war.
