Same plan as Iran:

1. Send the US military to bomb a bunch of stuff.
2. Iran Immediately folds and capitulates to all our demands.

It’s the most bestest plan ever that only the brilliant minds of Trump & Hegseth could have come up with.

TACO now and forever.

President of peace my ass

Instead we opted for regime change in Afghanistan. Look how that turned out.

The submarine commander didn’t do this unilaterally. He was clearly ordered to do so, and that order would have come from Hegseth or Trump.

He’s starting a war so he can boast about resolving yet another one. What would this be, war # 9 1/2 that he solved?

It was a happy coincidence. They didn’t need twins in the original Terminator, but in T2 the second terminator could change appearances. Linda’s sister was used when the terminator appeared as Sarah Connor.

Especially the police unions in Massachusetts, where they have a stranglehold on public works. Need to dig up a sidewalk to repair a water main? That’ll require a 2 person police detail for a minimum of 6 hours, and it’s all overtime pay.

Bet you can’t find civilian flagged anywhere in the state.

This is exactly the first thing that popped into my mind when I heard what happened. I still clearly recall the WPRI news video of the fire mentioned in the Wikipedia article. That news crew had just shown up to report on the band that was playing, and they got clear footage of the nightmare. You could see bodies stacked up at the door as hundreds of people pushed to get out of the inferno… You can probably still find the video on smaller video sharing sites if you dare to go looking for it.

This article includes a picture of the ship that it claims shows the parts in question. However the picture isn’t the greatest resolution, and they also state the cargo was wrapped in tarps. So take what you will…

No kidding. If this happened in North Korea the trial would have lasted 15 minutes and the execution would have been a public spectacle.

Don’t forget that they are also reportedly squandering their gold reserves, and are losing a lot of revenue from Ukraines growing attacks on oil infrastructure. Russia isn’t going to be able to pay its soldiers or buy equipment if those two trends continue.

Came here to say this.

In response to a mass shooting in 1996 Australia passed strict gun regulations. Since then you can pretty much count the number of mass shootings in that country on one hand.

Compare that to Wikipedias list of mass shootings in the USA for just 2025. I stopped counting that list at 300.

I recently heard Vladimir Kara-Murza, a Russian political dissident, give a talk. He survived two attempted poisonings among other things. He described how the current method of poisoning is for Putin’s henchmen to sneak into your home and put polonium into your underwear. So this guy might want to consider walking around naked for a while as well…

A number of years ago my wife and I visited Lubec, Maine, which is about the northeastern point of the state. Lubec has a bridge that connects to Campobello Island, which is Canadian. For whatever reason, Campobello is in a different time zone despite being physically only one or two hundred yards from the mainland.

I learned the hard way that the closest cell tower in the area was on Campobello, and since it’s in a different time zone it caused my phone to change time to an hour earlier. Luckily it resulted in us being an hour early for a harbor tour instead of an hour late.

New costume idea: Racist zombie hulking maniac

And chances are these sorts of attacks will continue. That means less and less manufacturing capacity, etc.

Remember how Putin stole a Super Bowl ring from Bob Kraft? He just asked to look at it then walked out of the room with it. I bet Trump would do exactly the same thing with a Nobel medal if he had the chance.
