Paul Jay talks with Matt Korda of the Federation of American Scientists about a range of issues with the U.S. nuclear modernization program, including the Sentinel ICBM, hundreds of billions in cost overruns, the Golden Dome fantasy, and an irrational and dangerous launch-on-warning. Most worrisome of all? The very same people making decisions about nuclear weapons in an uncontrolled arms race are all over the Epstein files.
I wouldn’t trust them with a paper Burger King crown.
that’s a good decision. could we make it a mylar BK crown instead? I’d “trust” them with one of those.
have you ever gotten a papercut from mylar? i have. once. i worked at a blueprint company when i was a teenager and i still have the scar. it was a rite of passage, when you got your first mylar cut you got it butterflied, you bandaged it the rest of the way up and put pressure on until it stopped bleeding (we were all in the same boy scouts troop growing up it’s how i got the job so like we got first aid, just this one cut got no stitches by union policy) and then we’d all go over to the bakery next door which coincidentally is still the best bakery in town, the union would buy you your favorite pastry because you probably just lost a lot of blood, then you got to go home.
every other mylar papercut you had to go get stitches, but your first? that’s how you joined the union.
