Trump wants more battleships, because it’s apparently still 1920. Billy Mitchell already proved planes sink them, but sure—ignore a century of warfare, satellites, missiles, and drones. Nothing says “modern strategy” like refighting history already settled. www.airandspaceforces.com/article/bill...

Nothing says “organic support” like a dozen Cabinet officials posting the same adjectives, same cadence, same talking points within hours. Truly inspiring to see so many leaders independently discover the phrase “steady under pressure” on the exact same day.

MARK KELLY SHOULD BE PRESIDENT.
Astronaut. Navy combat pilot. Test pilot. Senator. Calm under pressure, evidence-driven, service over ego. A war hero who understands consequences, not slogans. This is what serious, adult leadership looks like.

Scale helps only with mandatory risk pools. Costco can’t force enrollment, set hospital prices, or tax-subsidize care. Without those levers, a “Costco plan” is just a rebranded insurer not cheaper healthcare.
