Yeah, it would look like that Spetsnaz drop on Kyiv’s airport.

Engineering too. A huge chunk of my company’s design engineering staff are H-1B because you can get away with paying a lot less.

Nah, that’s a little too savvy for Trump directly. We can infer, from stories given to us, that he literally just sold secrets over the dinner table at Mar-A-Lago in his first term.

This is my thought. The admin (not Trump because I don’t think he can plan more than five minutes ahead right now) is either going to launch a false-flag, or deploy a nuke. Maybe both, so we can say “look, we SAID Iran had nukes!”

The FBI director is a podcaster, the HHS secretary is…whatever RFK Jr did before (the word “failson” comes to mind).

Talking awfully big for a man threatening a country with arguably one of the best infiltrations of the US intelligence network since the USSR. I’m unsure how true it is since the Cold War, but time was when you couldn’t go take a shit in the Pentagon without Castro knowing about it.

Ryanair operates in numerous countries. What’s stopping them from just moving the plane to “coincidentally” operate only in countries that won’t bother with seizing the plane?

Oh that’s easy. Turns out everyone on the board is now a landlord for like 100 properties each, they’re all simply ADMINISTERED through the corporation, for which each board member pays a modest fee.

We have nukes. Trump is desperate for ANYTHING to make his mark. Being the first president since Truman to deploy one would be something I could see him doing.

Federal takeover, no. Now, federalizing National Guard units and having them and ICE police polling places in swing states to make sure “people vote correctly”?

Well our next target according to Dear Leader Trump is Cuba, so maybe. Why not run a war on 3 separate continents at once, multifront wars are always totally winnable.

No no, Lindsey Graham was pretty clear that this is a war for oil. You can extract oil from a fallout zone, you just need a large amount of workers who you don’t care about. Wonder where they might find those.

Also no way to enforce. DOJ won’t bother and they know it.

Nah, if we’re comparing them to feudal failsons, these are the sorts of kids that nobles would send off to become monks. They wouldn’t be any good at ruling effectively or really doing much, but they’d be in a monastery and out of the way.

And likely fiscally. Did anyone check if a bunch of senators bought defense stocks?

No, MAGA doesn’t have the “embrace of death” ideology that much. I feel they’re trying to “score points” with Jesus by simply killing as many “undesirables” as they can get their hands on, and some MIGHT kill themselves when they realize He ain’t coming back.

Trump did this last term too, we killed their intelligence chief when he landed for peace talks with Iraq.

This is a war crime, BTW. Attacking someone under a perceived state of truce or ceasefire is called “perfidy”.

Precisely. I feed my cat at 6PM. He will absolutely let you know it’s almost time to feed the cat by 430.

No no no! I don’t know who started this fucking thing, Cincinnati chili has never contained cocoa. I literally live here, and I’ve heard it from tons of transplants and natives alike. No chili parlor here uses it, no recipes I’ve seen use it.

They got Capone on tax evasion, etc.
