I have held my 20 year retired Marine tongue until now, but with regard to his utterly disrespectful attire-- Fuck Trump And the Eastern European horse he rode in on.

Confirmed medievalist. Retired Marine & instructor of U.S. history, military strategy, & tactics. Focused on Britain & Europe, 1066–1603. Liberal-minded, historically grounded, and deeply uneasy about America’s path. I don’t posture. I remember.

Over 100 came home today on a chartered 747. They didn't come in coffins they came home in buckets and are now being sorted out at a DNA testing laboratory in Delaware. This has been covered up so far on an industrial level.
While there is no public contract yet linking his specific firms to DHS warehouses, the FY 2026 NDAA (which Mullin voted for as a Senator) secured $670.3 million for Oklahoma-based defense installations. Connect the dots.
Kristi Noem has been fired and given a golden parachute job.
Her replacement, Senator Mullin maintains a personal services business comprised of five companies. These firms specialize in the high-volume, "Industrial-Scale" plumbing required for million-gallon-a-day Detention facilities.
About 100 Marines from Camp Pendleton and Camp Lejeune.
Yes including Russian warships. The Chinese also have warships in the area as well.
Curious how where the general public is that a great quantity of our military's ground forces are already staged in the Iran Theater of operations or enroute? We either planned for massive ground operations or we have found ourselves in a shit sandwich?

Nothing is ever as simple as it seems.
PM Starmer officially rejected a request from President Trump to use RAF Fairford (Gloucestershire) and Diego Garcia for the initial bombing runs. UK government lawyers warned that a "pre-emptive" strike without a direct, imminent threat to the UK could breach international law.
UK military personnel stationed at Al-Udeid (Qatar) and the 5th Fleet HQ (Bahrain) have moved to the highest level of protection. While the primary targets are U.S. and Israeli, the proximity of UK forces makes them highly vulnerable to Iranian ballistic missile debris and drone "overflow."
Dissident Threats: PM Starmer warned that the Iranian regime poses a "direct threat" to dissidents and Jewish communities within the UK. In the last year, Iran-backed groups have been linked to over 20 potentially lethal attacks on UK soil.
The "RESURGE" Impact: British telecom and the London Stock Exchange are on high alert for the Cisco SD-WAN exploit seen in the U.S. While the UK uses similar systems, they are currently reporting a "heightened monitoring" status rather than the 60% failure rate seen in U.S. regional banks.
Economic Attrition: As a major global financial hub, London is feeling the "SWIFT/ISO 20022" noise injection attack. British banks are reporting delays in dollar-denominated clearing, mirroring the "Bank Holiday" fears currently gripping Washington.
The UK is walking a fine line. By defending allies but refusing to strike, they are trying to avoid being "dragged into" a total war of attrition. However, as the regional counterattacks grow, the distinction between "defensive" and "offensive" involvement is becoming harder for Tehran to recognize.
What the media is not telling us
Analyst's Summary: Iran is the kinetic front, but Russia is the armorer and China is the digital architect. The Triple Axis is successfully using asymmetric tools to turn a military victory in Tehran into a potential economic collapse in New York and London.

The US financial SWIFT gateways are the most critical asymmetric vulnerability in the United States right now. While the news is focused on missiles in the Middle East, the Iranian strategy for a "decisive" response involves "unplugging" the American consumer from their money.
Gee, I don't know, Rachel. How did Hermann Goering manage to hang onto his job?
I get the point, but has anyone ever tried to boycott a for profit concentration camp?
Have always found people using words like "thee" and "thy" rather charming. Somehow they equate use of 16th & 17th century English as being somehow pious. Were John Wycliffe alive today he might chuckle.
Basic ID is not the same as requiring a passport.
I have a neighbor who once told me the Crusades were the work of God. I suggested he should do some reading on the 4th Crusade and he hasn't spoken to me since.
Those balls cost about $30 in the 1970s--and they broke.
Love that lense. Back in the day I acquired an F to have access to it and a 35mm tilt and shift.
I saw a Pacman punching a toaster before I look more carefully

Sometimes, Rather than teeing up Trump's goons to spew their bullshit from the Capitol floor, I would rather have our political leaders marching in the streets with us.
But you go girl.
Gee Willikers! Let me take a scientific wild ass guess that those new offices are going to line up very well With the places marginalized people Are likely to vote for Democrats in number.
