Video from Kankakee, Illinois, shows a tornado moving through the city, accompanied by strong gusts of wind that sent debris flying near a highway.

I fear this year is going to be what they said last year was going to be. This is not a good start to the season

i only mention this because of a few replies i see written as if the problem is the trump admin being too lazy or incompetent to bother coming up with a good plan: there is no possible good plan. "don't provoke iran into closing the strait" is the plan, if you're past that you're fucked

Steve Biscotti should have fired EDC also, Iโ€™ve seen enough. This Maxx Crosby debacle is on him. All the free agency losses, no edge rush whatsoever, and most importantly no offensive line. What is he doing and why does he still have a job?

Iโ€™m genuinely happy for him but the old heads are right about the defense situation, and the fouls too. Let them play, and then also let them play defense

this is also my ongoing frustration. you can not run for office on "democracy is under threat" and then lose and go "oh well, nice game everyone"

they put us in a constant state of hypervigilance & terror begging for our last $5 to save the country and then they do the joint softball game.

iโ€™d like for some people to grapple with the fact that โ€œthe most important election of our lifetime,โ€ if you actually mean it, implies that the governance period following it is also the most important governance period of our lifetime, and adjust their demands/expectations/behaviors accordingly

Not to mention the WHOLE point of this stupid war was to reinforce the strength of the petrodollar, ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ was the biggest consumer of ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท oil and they werenโ€™t paying in ๐Ÿ’ต. Same reason ๐Ÿ‡ป๐Ÿ‡ช was illegally struck and the same reason ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡บ is being blockaded. This war does nothing to help the petrodollar whatsoever

It's been discussed more in the context of the Manosphere, but: A consequence of being fully submerged in the Trump-era for over a decade is that an entire generation of reactionary-minded men (mostly) have come of age in a social landscape where shamelessness & cruelty are aspirational traits.

It's probably smart to heckle the country that funded and helped execute the deadliest terrorist attack on US soil in history

Ukraine conflict, hell Russia is the number one purchaser of the drone. These drones have cut through all the protective barriers that have been stated to be invincible: Iron Dome, Davidโ€™s sling, all the THAAD systems, etc. A Shahed drone costs 50K max. One THAAD missile costs 12 million.

I just donโ€™t understand why these fools wouldnโ€™t consider the fact that Iran is the premier drone manufacturer in the world into their contingency plans. The Shahed is the drone equivalent to the Soviet T-34 in terms of cost effectiveness and manufacturing capability. We have years of data from the

Imagine a USS Cole scenario, but instead of one rickety boat, itโ€™s 5-10 PT boats with torpedo capability, and a drone swarm launched from Yemen or Iran. Do you believe the numbers being told about 80-90% of Irans โ€œlaunchโ€ capability being destroyed? I donโ€™t, I can see videos of Tel Aviv on TikTok

Apparently after the drunkard and pedophile ordered the 57 or so โ€œlargeโ€ Iranian Navy vessels destroyed they called it a day. Reports are stating that. 80-90% of the fast attack (PT class) vessels are safe and sound, and have began the mine laying process already.
