Ukraine should damage any ships leaving Russian ports. Not sink or kill them. But damage.
Europe and other allies should catalog every ship and ban it from commerce in their ports
EU and others should catalog every mariner on these ships and ban them from their countries for 5 years.

They would rather make friends with Putin and Xi. They would rather eat with the ayatollahs than a librul.

I’m betting he’s one of those weirdos who has an iPhone that doesn’t have any other Apple products.

Also, you completely misunderstood my remark. Dumbass.

With a touch of telephone line through the head. Somewhere Annie Leibowitz is weeping.

iPhone wants their camera back.

Sure. I’m happy with the result.

When I look at how citizens respond to state ballot questions, especially in red states like Missouri or Ohio or Kansas or Kentucky, I see a sensible populace held captive by rogue legislators, who have been given permission by the Supreme Court to create their own special districts.

The solution to this is that the district judges should just rule as they always have and make the Supreme Court take on all the cases. Just bog them down with cases it’s their own fault.

Here’s the solution. Don’t try to interpret Scotus rulings. Just rule as if they didn’t make one. Make them sort it out make everyone appeal to the Supreme Court and make them bogged down with their own bullshit.

Looks like she threw a water bottle.

Ok. Now you have to prevent the next round by closing access to and from Joliet barracks.

Well, at this point if we have anything else up our sleeve we wanna save it for an attack on the United States. I mean, we can give 90% of our knowledge away but we gotta keep some. We can’t have China and Russia know everything.

If we had crushed their nuts in late 22 or 2023 like we should’ve. We would’ve been all right. Biden was pathetic on this.

There goes a multi billion dollar system. The Chinese will catch on too. Raytheon better catch up.

Every Russian out.

Doesn’t Ukraine have some drones for these badtards?

Not sure who needs to hear this but your “physical” isn’t “annual” if you need it twice in six months.

Status.

There was an agreement with the Germans (now lapsed) for use of training base in New Mexico. And there is an agreement with the Brits for use of Edwards Air Force Base. But not quite to this level.

As for some of these countries? As much as I don’t like them, it’s better having them in the tent than outside. We saw what happened with Saddam and Kadafi and the Ayatollahs.

Chief Joe @chiefjoer.bsky.social · 18h

Which they?
1. Qatar for status and closeness to USA
2. Trump for a new plane and some cash.

What level of corruption did this entail?
