Epstein’s Fury

The unfolding situation in the middle east is origami of Trump's own making.

My gut tells me that the gulf states have put a lot of money into the Pahlavi family because they really want to butress the idea of monarchy in the region.

My brother called me to tell me there was a terrorist threat against all the living US presidents over this thing. I was like: fair trade.

So, Trump likely thought this was the thing that would save his presidency. He may try to cancel elections or whatever he thinks is necessary to do that but that will not save him.

Well, there is something to be said for Caine. China is the main adversary now. Not sobriety.

I wish we had the paradigm of 1991 in place still. Massive and exceptionally advantaged technologically, actually worried about outcomes and knock-on effects of disrupting current order, allies lining up to pay into a common fund for collective security, upset at killing civilians, Vietnam miasma in rear view mirror as a warning to not do that. Add in these elements: Sober as f SecDef - as opposed to guy who needs to show you how many push ups he can do between shots POTUS schooled in noblesse oblige and who had actually been shot down in a shooting war - as opposed to a guy who rapes children Chairman of the Joint Chiefs schooled by life as a small unit commander in Vietnam and the inventer of the weinberger doctrine - as opposed to whatever yassir we got now

I don't think Trump wants the takeaway from this to be that killing the leader is a way to change the regime.

is that a Tommy Franks or a Norm Schwartzkopf reference?

Concur on all. Another factor that is at work in Texas is the fact that no matter who you are if you are under a certain tax bracket you will run into the over-officious legal system. Illiberal is the nicest way to put it.

for sure

We all have rights. They have to get subpoenas to access records from US providers. NSA often bumps into these clowns comms with their foreign friends though. Its weird that the troll says FBI agents are snakes. Aren't those federal agents? Aren't we totally backing the blue? Or are they too well trained for his liking? Too much independent thought?
