    Let's put aside the kidnapping of a country's president, threats against Cuba, Colombia, and Greenland.

    Those are just distracting us from the Epstein files.

    And regardless of what ACTUALLY happens, millions of Americans now believe that Hegseth punished Kelly for his actions.

    Again, the end result generally doesn't really matter to these guys. It's all about the theatre.

    And the story will be forgotten tomorrow as Maduro stuff or Cuban stuff happens,

    We really are doing Russia’s bidding and acting like Russia in the process, and by Miller’s logic, there are plenty of territories and countries we could take over because they can’t beat the US military.

    Do you not see any upside in taking out the dictator of a socialist regime that is actively cooperating with our three biggest adversaries, has large amounts of natural resources, has a significant role in both drug and human trafficking and has actively worked to destabilize our country? Oh and it’s in our hemisphere.

    We left the dictator’s people in charge, so it’s not regime change. I’m not even sure it’s regime decapitation. Although our President is now publicly threatening to kill the woman currently in charge of Venezuela, so that’s some fantastic optics, and who knows who will replace her.

    As for Venezuela actively cooperating with our adversaries, for fuck’s sake our own administration is actively cooperating with Russia at the expense of Ukraine in the “negotiations”, to the point of taking talking points from Putin’s people.

    Go back to the fucking crypto thread.

    Unless they’re selling those for $150, why would anyone want that?

    Based on the Steam survey, a healthy amount of people are still running below that level.

    I think it’s more about future production of newer cards not being on the consumer market (or consumer versions not being made in the first place) and NVIDIA trying to catch some sales.

    I have absolutely nothing to back up my thoughts, but it seems not illogical that the Russian business and military culture based upon corruption and stealing - when faced with a universally recognized (even if not admitted) possibility of a severe recession and potential war end/regime change - would view those circumstances as significant motivation to now steal as much as possible as quickly as possible while they still can.

    Russian front line logistics will not be improving. And I think only one side in the conflict will be giving their soldiers sufficient cold weather gear for this winter.

    I’m still trying to figure out how they aren’t able to keep up production of motorcycles or utility vehicles. Something has happened with their procurement process and manufacturing for them to resort to horses, and to send so many men in without body armor and helmets. Not even shitty steel helmets.

    Theft, corruption, sanctions? They were, for a while, importing cheap AtVs and golf carts from China. Has the money dried up to an extent that they are spending it elsewhere.

    I assume there's some sort of administrative process within the military for this that he could theoretically pursue. However, they've almost certainly rigged that process, given the delay between their initial outbursts right after his statement and then the delay before they announced this.

    According to this, they can't reduce his retirement without a reduction in grade. There is a hearing process for that. Whiskey Pete may be a bit over his skis here. Although I'm sure they think they have it rigged.

    Peter would have done the court martial thing already if he was 100% sure it would work. That statement read like he was trying to shut him down and not go through that process.

  10. I will say that if Trump gets wrapped up in Venezuela, Cuba, and Colombia, it’s fantastic news for China and Russia. We stop being a global superpower to a massive regional superpower with a ton of military resources wrapped up in the Americas, leaving the door open for China to try shit elsewhere, or at the least fill in the soft-power vacuum that we leave around the world.

    We all know a bunch of OG oligarchs are about to become rich as shit off those oil reserves one way or another

    I have my doubts about that. It’s going to take years of investments to really increase output, and won’t pay off until after Trump is out of office, and there’s always a populist leader who will happily run on a premise of “they’re stealin’ our oil!” and then things are nationalized again.

    And how many years of American troops guarding pipelines and facilities will we tolerate? I’m guessing up until the next administration takes office, or January 2027.

    There is a reason Trump and Rubio were vague about plans after Maduro, and most likely because they thought they had deals cut with various people that maybe aren’t deals anymore.

    Trump went t from praising Rodriguez to threatening her life in less than 24 hours.

    That was always my thought. We just lift the sanctions and we would bring down that regime with our money and crap in no time.

    It’s honestly close to being that simple. Lift the sanctions and travel restrictions, flood the place with tourists and money, and little blood will be shed.

    But we won’t do that, we have to have a perp walk.

    I do hold out hope that once that regime does fall then certain Cuban immigrants go home and find their roots.

    LOL, yeah, starting a new war without consulting Congress, kidnapping its leader, and doing it solely to take over it's petroleum reserves is a non-event.

    We haven’t taken over shit though. And he’s got a hard-on for Cuba and Colombia (a democracy), so he has aims of trying to control almost 90 million people in the next few months, most of whom do not want us ruling over them.

    Every republican of note spent the weekend felating dear leader for his bravery and for ending the war on drugs and saving oil and gas and whatever else they put out there as the excuse to launch an illegal war

    Of course they are fucking ecstatic. And there’s a a good reason for it. It’s the top news story.

    I want to believe.

    I do as well. They are hurting for men and money, it’s just when will the breaking point hit.

    Edit : and he mentions the defensive line that Ukraine has built that will slow down any serious Russian attempts at breakthroughs. Based on everything they’ve learned, Russian capabilities real and theoretical, and made with drones in mind. It’s impressive. Doesn’t have to stop the Russians totally, just funnel them into choke points or slow them down while the drones do their work.
