The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
956 Worldwide replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
Thom Tillis is being forced to retire because of Trump’s BBB and his recognition that voting for it would cost him re-election. But at least he did his job and confirmed Pete Hegseth to show loyalty. Only kind of leopards because he will go home and be comfortable and not personally hurt by all the awful things he enabled. It is humiliating though and that’s something. https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5375837-tillis-reelection-senate-north-carolina/ -
Loving the implication of the CASA ruling. Trump can demand that every first-born be sacrificed to appease Stephen Miller’s wrath and unless you live in a lib state it’s happening for at least as long as it takes to certify a class. America is broken. And the hell of it is that I fundamentally agree that it’s a stretch of judicial power to issue nation-wide injunctions and we are beyond the norm. But there’s also a norm against just issuing facially unconstitutional executive orders. And at this point it’s just 6 people cherry-picking the norms that should continue to apply (and it’s the ones that appease Stephen Miller).

One site didn’t get that ordinance, but two others did. The media mostly focused on Fordow (where they were used) but we also hit Nantz and this site. Submarine launched cruise missiles went to Isfahan.

Literally no one was debating whether this was an impressive, carefully coordinated and technically astounding mission. Then Trump made a Truth social post accusing people of downplaying it and badmouthing the pilots and now we are all debating it. Gotdamn, read up on reflexive control and maintain cognitive hygiene. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflexive_control

Needs to be said bluntly that this is absolutely insane. CIA director tweeting blurry photos of a press release (why?) to satisfy a demand from POTUS. “Great sources at the CIA report that the emperor had clothes on and moreover they are the most fashionable clothes ever.” In real time we are watching the dismantling of the most effective and powerful national security apparatus, from intel to diplomacy to influence to defense, that has ever existed. By choice by bored people who elected the most boring and venal man alive.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
956 Worldwide replied to MaybeACoordinator's topic in Daily Texan
Makes me almost stroke out. There is not much about the Valley to attract an outsider; even less now that the citrus groves are gone and summer is hotter than it once was, as impossible as that seems. We have one state football championship. We have the cheapest houses in the country. We handed over a place of stark but real beauty. Home to shorebirds and pelicans and rattlesnakes and redfish. We were told the rich man would put us on the map. And he did. He blew up his rockets and showered the shorebirds with debris and closed the beach and the world knows where we are. Damn if that isn’t the story of the Valley. -
The truth on this is that Japanese intentions, the need to drop the bomb, and the motivations of Truman are bitterly disputed by extremely credible historians and specialists 80 years later to say nothing of the fog of war and politics HST had to work through at the time. Anyone who is dogmatic on this is arguing from ideology. It’s also extremely true that the planners who dropped the bomb had no clear understanding of the long-term fallout (ISWYDT) aside from “big boom.”

The really interesting countries for proliferation purposes are in Asia-Pacific and MENA, not Europe. And the EU is not a real security actor. I’ve got a long post here that I won’t reproduce but the bottom line is that allowing Iran to have a nuke is likely more harmful for proliferation than targeted U.S. strikes.

All the update means is that it got announced before it can be spun.

The MOP entered service (2010s) well after the B2 and was basically designed for the Iran problem. It was always intended to be integrated with the B2 although B-52s have dropped it in testing. Actual information about the B2 payload is highly classified but the 40k number you read is likely not a weight constraint on the airframe but a constraint on how many munitions of the type in existence at the B2s service entry will fit inside the internal bomb racks.
