  1. if they are planning to be a single party government it isn't. But wanting to have that is weird.
  2. Other speculation was Venezuela. I will also caveat that the Pentagon pizza thing and gay bar thing are really unscientific in a world where campaign planning actually happens in the unified an specified command headquarters elsewhere. So, say USSOUTHCOM in Miami area.
  3. My buddy who was a submarine officer says they had 4 "good" fast attack subs but appear to be down to 2 now. Nothing remaining in the Black Sea.
  4. Leader/follower dynamics…
  5. Related
  6. Nice sub fleet ya got there, Vladdie
  7. Not to step on the J6 post above but this is too good
  8. This does confirm a lot of narratives i have heard from the people who work there.
  9. This stuff about Pence and later on in the thread Harris is very interesting. We should fear how bad this would have been with a Trump loyalist in charge.
  10. So two carrier groups heading to deal with Iran and the supposed pizza-at-the-pentagon meter was pegged last night. Something is up.
  11. Yeah but that drone won’t be one of those kickass DJIA drones you control easily from your phone. but yeah, this could be exploited by a competent person with some EE skills and malevolent intent.
  12. Yep…good question
  13. Jan 6 still reveals its secrets.
  14. US bases in Japan will be attacked in the opening hours of a PRC invasion of Taiwan. That drags Japan and the US into the war together. I really hope they don't. I would prefer to get this past conscription age for my kids.
  15. While looking at the Lloyd Austin story...interesting tidbit about establishing a US/Japan joint command story comes out that I missed while on current vacation. The Russians HATE it.
  16. This was a move. Glad he did. KSM should rot in hell.
  17. LLoyd Austin from the top of the turnbuckle!
  18. disgusting. The morale on this team fell through the floor.
  19. That was painful!
  20. Dude, it wasn’t USSS drone use i was talking about. You know they have been weaponized. It was something the US mil was in the leading edge of.
  21. I apologize for antagonizing the MAGA gun stroke who thinks he knows more than the professionals.
  22. Half read, half understood by the parking lot attendant.
  23. Of course the USSS book that we were trained on regarding threats to protectees indicates that the most concerning individuals are mentally unstable super fans of the protectee. So, they are less worried about the individual who is an out and out hater who writes in threats. Those are often just people blowing off steam. The person who writes Obama 1000 times in a year who suddenly gets angry that Obama doesn't acknowledge him. Often these are individuals whose lives appear to be dull and uninteresting.
  24. I seem to recall some discussion about your military service. What is the distance you think you could put a round on a human sized target with an AR pattern rifle? Now, add enhanced optics. Now add a bipod or similar to keep the rifle steady. With a .308 or larger round, probably longer distances? Now, I know there are FAA no drone areas around USSS monitored events and I know that the firmware will stop a drone from entering such a place but I'm not sure how well you can override that sort of thing. I think even the PRC manufacturer DJIA wouldn't want to get on the bad side of the FAA and FCC so they would comply. Now you know that Trump likes to go to certain places owned by his cronies that don't mind so much if he stiffs them (as he surely will) and you have the ability to stage a device at such a place. Go ahead and second guess the professionals because that's how your kind gets theirs back for being trapped in marginal lives.
