All of Trump's choices in the critical areas seem to be either Christian Zionists or warhawks. Were they "victimized" and by whom? They all love war and can see and feel Armageddon about to knock on their doors. Cheerfully they will open their doors and greet the new blobsters. How lucky we are to get into and rejoice with future wars! G…
All of Trump's choices in the critical areas seem to be either Christian Zionists or warhawks. Were they "victimized" and by whom? They all love war and can see and feel Armageddon about to knock on their doors. Cheerfully they will open their doors and greet the new blobsters. How lucky we are to get into and rejoice with future wars! God bless the military-industrial complex! I knew the OrangeMan would free us of any of our past lamentations about not having enough wars to keep John Bolton happy.
We are a war mongering people. A war like country. We have been since the advent of the Federal Reserve. Our troops are placed on a pedestal and worshipped yet how many of the worshippers actually know what our troops are doing in places like South Korea, Germany, Djibuoti, and hundreds of other nations? War IS the American economy.
Can you imagine the economic shit storm that would happen if our President closed all the bases and brought ALL of the troops home? All the jobs that would be lost at places like Boeing, Raytheon and Lockheed? It would result in economic depression the likes of which has never been seen. Without being in a state of constant war, the American economy collapses.
Kind of like what would happen if our vaunted research facilities actually found a cure for cancer. Can you imagine the economic shit storm that would follow if a simple cure for cancer were found? How much economy does cancer care and cancer treatment actually generate? How many jobs are based upon the manufacture of cancer treating chemicals and caring for cancer patients. How many jobs are generated by cancer research and yet even though they spend billions they never seem to find anything to treat cancer other than chemotherapy, radiation and mutilation. Because of this they will never permit a cure for cancer to come to light. Similarly, they will never end their warmongering. It is an economic engine and we must have it.
Unwarranted hysteria. The MIC is about 3 percent of the economy, and exists mostly in a walled garden that is separate from the domestic economy at lsrge. It is slow, backward, stupid, inefficient, non-competitive, and rife with corruption. Burn it down. Something better will arise from the rubble. Market economies abhor a vacuum, but the MIC is not a part of a market economy.
A legit opinion. What exactly is the economy going to do with all the folks who will be displaced by a reduction in the MIC.
Maybe an example will be set by Boeing vs. Space X in NASA.
Maybe an example is the 7.5 million young men sitting at home drawing welfare instead of working that was “discovered” this year, or the 900000 new jobs in the jobs report that were fabrications, or the paltry 12000 jobs created in October. Trump is going to have his hands full trying to create the jobs that the Dems have claimed that do not really exist.
Oh the jobs are out there, JohnAZ. Americas infrastructure is collapsing. There are a lot of bridges to be replaced. A lot of roads to be re-graded and paved. A lot of water and sewer pipes to be replaced. Bring our troops home and put them to work rebuilding America. At least we the people would get direct benefit from this whereas with them overseas farting around in other nations we get no direct benefit. And I don't buy the "preserving our freedom" bullshit. I've never met anyone from Afghanistan and I have never been threatened by anyone from Iran. The only threat I feel living here in the Rocky Mountains of Utah is the fact that I am now surrounded by people who don't speak English. That's the threat. Not North Koreans. The multi-million man army that has been permitted to cross our border is the real threat.
It is interesting Cankerpuss. Think of the difference between the world war. States sent militia to participate in WW1 creating a foreign standing army. WW2 created a Foreign only standing army which the MIC doesn’t know what to do with during periods of Pax Americana. Hence the ongoing search for somewhere to send them. We have a standing army here in the country, the National Guard, the successor to the militias, and the Reserves, called on to fill in for the foreign army. If I remember right, the off-shore forces are not allowed to operate in the US, only overseas.
We have been set up as a war machine by the MIC ever since WW2.
Of course, the strategy is to fight our wars “Over There” rather than here.
Bretton Woods still exists de jure. We still feel it is our responsibility to patrol the sea lanes. We still feel it is our responsibility to patrol Europe, AKA NATO. We thought it was our job to patrol the Far east, AKA SEATO, which led us to Vietnam. Out of the goodness of our hearts? UH huh, when pigs fly. We are 36 trillion in debt, thanks partly to the MIC and its riding the coat tails of Bretton Woods.
At least the Middle East is an effort to protect our access to oil.
Cut the regs. Eliminate bureaucrats regulating. Shut the EPA and salt the ground. Tariff the hell out of US Manufacturing based off shore and eliminate taxes for on shore for a year or two. They built the Pentagon in 18 mos without a single computer. They built the 6.6 BILLION ton Hoover dam in 40 months with mostly hand tools. NONE of our major weapon systems have less than 50% OFF shore components. We can’t fight any war that uses any more equipment than what we start the war with!! Bring mfg back on shore. Stop all illegals and limit any legal to either a boatload of money or desirable skills. Severely limit guest worker programs. We’ll have zero unemployment in 12 months.
" how many of the worshippers actually know what our troops are doing in places like South Korea, Germany, Djibouti, and hundreds of other nations? War IS the American economy.
CP, What are our (or any other nation's) troops doing in Djibouti? Looking for Bouti, obviously....
Much of our defense expenditures are for OFFENSE!! That's what's repulsive. Like, we are always looking for trouble so we can Boltonize our military and go-get-em, those bad guys who won't conform to our business demands.
I think we need to streamline our military to focus on what is most important to our national security. End the revolving door between top brass and defense contractors to minimize any conflicts of interest that perpetuate waste, and lead to wars that are often started to move older weapons off the shelf and create demand for new, advanced weaponry, and to rob targeted countries of their resources.
These guys definitely need to be on a tight leash. That said, I'd rather have America be the hegemonic power rather than Russia or China. We need to defend our interests. Just need to be more prudent in how we involve ourselves. It will be interesting to see which government institutions and to what degree the DOGE tenacles reach into. Trump is already building a list of warriors that he'll keep in the military. Many others will be dismissed.
We need to make peace with Eurasia and East Asia. We are Oceania. Each of the big three will have their own sphere. Israel needs to accept that it will never own and run the world.
The original promise from God to Abraham was that his seed would inhabit the whole world, not just Israel. Jesus changed that, His race, His sacrifice made the New covenant and deleted the old, allowing everyone to be included in God’s world. The zealous Jews have never been able to accept that, or they would’ve joined right in. Their arrogance, as well as the Mormons, makes them objects of scorn for the world.
Yeah, DOGE. Instead of trying to bomb the crap out of Russia, we may use our rocket technology, currently wearing the Space-X moniker, to go to Mars. Do you think we, the world, can handle that idea?
Unfortunately, Kathy, none of us know when this tribulation is set to begin. It could be tomorrow. It could be in a hundred years. "No man knoweth the hour of his coming."
But Hegseth, Huckabee and Rubio want to speed things up.
Like destroying Al Aqsa mosque and building a new Temple. They already have their red heifers from Texas.
I am a Christian but not of the Zionist variety. My faith tells me to “Love one another” and that God will decide if/when the mosque will be destroyed, not Pete “The Tatted One” Hegseth.
The Jewish leadership still consider Jesus to be a blasphemer, a criminal who was punished fairly by the Sanhedrin in AD33. I watched that debate between the Rabbi and the Jews for Jesus guy and the animosity against Jesus by the Rabbi was disconcerting. They just cannot get it through their heads that they are no longer the “Chosen Ones” since Jesus created His Church.
Well, yes! That you know this makes your adulation of this alien culture even more puzzling, but somehow you are still managing to do it. Meanwhile, Islam reveres Christ as a great Prophet.....
The Jews for Jesus people know what actual Jews believe. They probably don't want the gentile Zios knowing. You would be shocked if you knew. Of course the JJ's probably still think Jews are the Chosen People so that allows them to keep things from you lesser beings.
You do not get it. I am not a great admirer of them, I just acknowledge that no one is going to defeat them. As I said, the zealous Jews are not friends with anyone except themselves. That makes them unbeatable.
I must have missed the info you have ,where have those three said they are going to tear down the Al Aqua Mosque? If Israel wanted to do that, they would have long ago.
Our knowledge of stellar evolution has come to the point where we know that our Sun is in the mid point of it's 10 billion year lifetime. At the end of that it will become a red giant and engulf all the inner planets.
Yes. However we do know from Scripture the Father will revive and raise the son on the third day. That’s two days after Calvary and 6 days after Genesis. We are presently at the end of the second day about to enter the 3rd or 7th day. Seven years remain to be fulfilled from the end of the last dispensation. The Great Trib. If Christ were not God even He would not know the time. But He is and the time is soon.
I see where John Bolton is particularly upset with Tulsi becoming Director of National Intelligence. I can see truckloads of boxes of Chardonnay being backed into Hillary and Bill’s Chappaqua compound right now. Ha.
The man is just a Deep State hack. It took Trump very little time to figure that out.
This civil war going on is between people who believe that the government is supreme and those that think people are. These hacks Trump mistakingly used in adm 1 will bitch and moan about adm 2. Their opinions mean nothing as Trump is wise to them. He is even challenging the Deep State RINOs in the Senate.
That last $9 billion Biden is giving Zelensky on Jan. 19th, 2025 will go directly to The Pentagon for dispersal to Lockheed, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon etc.
Odd all these idiots are claiming genocide while Israel stupidly tells the enemy where and when they are going to attack. This giving the civilian non-combatants time to leave that is if hamas and Hezbollah allow them too. So who is actually responsible for non-combatants being injured and killed? We know the rabid kill all Israeli clique here twist truth ever to support the Jordanian expats calling themselves Palestinians but come on at least be honest war is hell and telegraphing attacks is foolish and doomed to failure and worse used as propaganda pieces.

Eisenhower had been through the wringer and knew where the MIC was headed if not brought under control. They weren't and they're still going there.
Yeah, he sent out the message as he left because he did not do anything to stem their advance in power.
" how many of the worshippers actually know what our troops are doing in places like South Korea, Germany, Djibouti, and hundreds of other nations? War IS the American economy.
CP, What are our (or any other nation's) troops doing in Djibouti? Looking for Bouti, obviously....
Ha Ha. I'm pretty sure we have a military or air force base in Djibouti.
Something repulsive when learning about a 1+ trillion dollar "defense" budget.
Over $3 billion dollars …..EVERY 24 HOURS…..for DEFENSE. Seriously let that sink in
Michael,
No, not repulsive. Most all soldiers, of any country, throughout human history.
Much of our defense expenditures are for OFFENSE!! That's what's repulsive. Like, we are always looking for trouble so we can Boltonize our military and go-get-em, those bad guys who won't conform to our business demands.
cut, burn and poison. The therapy that makes the most money.

Who gives a shit about Mars? Let's fix our own country first.
That's why it's all going to be destroyed, in the tribulation.
Unfortunately, Kathy, none of us know when this tribulation is set to begin. It could be tomorrow. It could be in a hundred years. "No man knoweth the hour of his coming."

They only care about Christ because he was Jewish. Well He's not Jewish anymore nor will He be when He comes back.
Zio-Christianity is just the triumph of the Judaizers who want to be 2nd class Jews.
The Jewish leadership still consider Jesus to be a blasphemer, a criminal who was punished fairly by the Sanhedrin in AD33. I watched that debate between the Rabbi and the Jews for Jesus guy and the animosity against Jesus by the Rabbi was disconcerting.

You're not? Really?Could have fooled me! You worship power. Are you sure your Christianity isn't just more of the same thing?

KC. OK. But in the meantime, arm up and stay alert.
Get the shots and relax. Fauci would never hurt a fly.
Oh, hell no!
You can always volunteer and fight for Ukraine….they got some openings….

They are just trying to “help along” their interpretation of prophecy, kinda like Iscariot.
FWIW, I concur.
That last $9 billion Biden is giving Zelensky on Jan. 19th, 2025 will go directly to The Pentagon for dispersal to Lockheed, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon etc.
I long to be a defense plant operative!
So maybe the weapons should be outlawed and we go back to buggy whip manufacturing? Where is the limit? Or do we just wait for it to happen.
Have you noticed JHK’s logo? Buggy whips, buggies and the horses to draw them may become a major industry again.
In line with that, what are we going to do with the interstate system? Maybe build RRs on their right of way?
I think you're on to something......
BB ALL wars are for profit. Bankers fund both sides. That's historically the pattern. That should stop because ONE MAN ?
Trump laid groundwork so subsequent presidents could regale knowing that Donnie did a good job preparing for new wars.
Wanna bet the new bumper crop of warhawks won't spoil for wars?
Odd all these idiots are claiming genocide while Israel stupidly tells the enemy where and when they are going to attack.
