I can't believe Illinois didn't see this coming.

Maybe Xi's on to something with relieving 93% of the command staff.
Look, it's fine, Robby's just doing the perfectly normal thing of giving away possessions and talking about how things will be after he's gone.
If you just wanted to use helos, no, but moving the heavy stuff would require taking the ships all the way in, yeah.
That said, naval ships are significantly more likely to survive a passage than an LNG tanker.
My dude, smelling weed on occasion does not make a city a shithole. I don't like the smell either, but it should be very, very low on the priority list.
Civilian drones. Checkmate, atheists.
Why/how would Iran invade a neighbor when in the middle of a defensive war where the opposing force has air supremacy?
Do you write this to torment me?
I love the USMC, but a MEU is not the "Call 911 for emergency" force
It's more like "Call 555-1212 if a rat or raccoon drowned in your recycling bin again"
(also, sending Marines to a war in the Persian Gulf is not asymmetric warfare...it's almost perfectly symmetric?)
Tweet by Tommy Tuberville saying “To be clear, I didn’t ‘suggest’ Islamists are the enemy. I said it plainly.”

Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.
Americans don’t really experience it this way, but I continue to see this war as essentially an autocoup, in that the President has claimed imperial power over war-making, which is expressly not given to him under the Constitution.
Good luck!
ok in seriousness:
1. it's going to take 2wks for an MEU to even get to the strait
2. the assault component of an MEU is like, 1200 men. any attack on the iranian mainland would be suicide. They could maybe take one of the small islands? not Qeshm tho.
3. the MEU will eat UAVs all day if we do this
Hells yeah, you got this.
Well, other than friendly troops.
Hey now, we're still flying the B-52, which is about as survivable in contested airspace and two decades older.
No Democrat should be talking about tax cuts. They should be talking about executing Elon Musk for treason and seizing every dollar he has.
Considering he's worth hundreds of millions, I'm going with "greed".
Maybe* they use renewable energy to pull methane out of the atmosphere, convert it to ethane, and then to propane. Did it cost, like, $100/liter?
*lol
Give it a chance because of the great name, fall in love because the combination of metal, traditional instruments, and throat singing utterly slaps.
As long as you know that there's a Mongolian folk metal band called The Hu.

Honestly, guarantee the territorial integrity of any ME state against Israeli aggression and you're 70% of the way to regional accords.
Or, at least, you would be if anyone could trust a US foreign policy to last longer than 4 years.
I acknowledge that that's what they're trying to do, but if anything, generating useful output from prompts would seem to favor those who can clearly articulate their thoughts, iterate, and analyze, which tends to not be the chud types.
I'm not suggesting the situations are exactly parallel. The industrialists couldn't program the looms to propagandize their operators, and tech work isn't heavily mercantilist in nature.
I'm not sure the professionals being replaced are especially woke, though, or would be replaced by chuds.
I hate it when the Caliph time-travels to before the Prophet's birth.
Oh, sure, I'll fight alongside you. I just prefer to focus on the root problem (capitalism, generally) rather than the specific technology causing the disruption.
The Luddites had a point, too, but industrial textile manufacture improved the world.
Both, I suppose? Opposing the use of a technology is generally fraught, vice opposing the social/political context in which it's used.
I wouldn't particularly care about people using AI voice generation in a post-scarcity society, for example.
