"we'll figure out how to solve problems as they come to us"

Guess no one told him what the "S" in JCS stands for.

Honestly a tragic figure, unable to apply his clear eyed analysis of history to his own behavior

"unforgivable that these general officers were unable to overcome their institutional role and speak truth to power"

"Oh, uh um yes not like that"

McMaster is incredible for writing a great book, but then almost directly reenacting it's mistakes himself

SNAP benefits weren't cut cause we fed the troops, SNAP benefits were cut cause they wanted to cut SNAP benefits

1) sign Kirk Cousins for 4yrs/180 mil
2) IMMEDIATELY draft a QB in the first round.
3) bench Cousins, start Penix
4) Penix hurt, start Cousins
5) miss playoffs in worst way possible
6) sign Tua (!)
7) (probably, who knows) release Cousins
8)??
9) profit

Had a memo kicked back for being in the wrong format.

It's the same format I've used for the last 6 years with no issue.

Found out the boss told his assistant to "check to format on these" so she googled "government memo format," found the GSA manual from 1992 and changed them to that.

If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

Written history for these people is essentially "occurred during my (adult) lifetime"

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
