Probably for the best.

Or maybe Vance recognized that he was getting caught up in the same political rhetoric that so many others got caught up in? You know, the one where you compare everyone you don't like to Hitler, even though they haven't systematically eliminated millions based on their religion or ethnicity? Or maybe he made the comment in 2016, when nobody knew how Donald Trump was going to govern? And since then, Donald Trump made very clear his stance on a whole bevy of conservative issues that would appeal to someone like JD Vance. Now, if he had changed his mind in a matter of weeks because of a political appointment, I think you'd have a point. But JD Vance is far from the only person who thought Trump was going to be a catastrophe for the conservative movement, but was proven wrong (me).

Just curious, did anyone happen to find the monkey sex chick? I bet you she's learned some new tricks now that she's well into her cougar years...

Well before you do, I think it's important that you know that there is now an FRT for the Auto Ordinance Thompson... And yes, they do sell 100 round drum magazines. Kahr Firearms Group1927A-1 Deluxe Carbine SBR 10.5" BarrelMy dealer says it comes in at just over $2000

A Cut Above!

I'm happy to report that the MP5K with the forced reset trigger is every bit as fun as it sounds. With a suppressor, even supersonic rounds are hearing safe. I'm getting a new locking piece to slow it down a bit, since there were a few feed issues, but 31 rounds in less than 2 seconds sure does put a smile on your face. I also have to accept that 30 years of watching henchmen in movies missing the protagonist with a barrage of machine gun fire might have actually been remarkably accurate for Hollywood 🤣😂

That's my assumption. If you look at the video where he runs by, everybody draws their gun and just stands there pointing him in the same direction. They aren't running or moving after him. So I'm wondering if he just ran straight into a closed door or a wall, or just tripped. But I suspect if he had been running down the hall or into other rooms, they would have been in Hot pursuit. They didn't look stunned, other than the initial second or two, they looked like they were all watching him to see what the fuck he was doing.

Did I read it correctly? Everyone in the administration was a target but Kash Patel?

Did you watch the video? Full sprint with a shot to center mass. Thank God the agent had armor on because that was a hell of a shot. 31 years old. Crazy to think you can be that indoctrinated at such a normally-stable age

Oh, I read CNO instead of SECNAV. Oops. Care to address the actual point? We replace military leaders regularly during wars. Usually because existing leadership tends to fight the last war and not the present war. It makes sense that you'd uncover misaligned leadership when it actually counts, rather than when everything is calm and boring. You're just hyperventilating at this point.

It's obvious that the person is important. What's not obvious is that what you are suggesting is true. That removing or replacing that person is some sort of catastrophe to the goal at hand. I suspect replacing McClellan, Burnside, and Hooker had consequences, but I don't think anybody suggests that they should have been kept in place just because the civil war had not yet ended. And if that's what it took to get to Grant, so be it. In fact replacing military leaders in the middle of an ongoing war has happened in every major conflict that I could find. And in this case, the flag officer we are discussing is not even responsible for the current hostilities. He's in a primarily administrative role, exactly as you described.

Does the SECNAV wage the war? I thought that was the combatant commanders' role.

Are you suggesting that Iran has basically been unaffected by this war? Where do they make the drones? What about the ballistic missiles? How do they enrich uranium? Is a regime defined by the name, or by the leadership? Which leaders are "intact?" What is Iran's control of the Straits currently accomplishing for them? Would you say that Iran (the Islamo-fascist regime, not the abstract country) is going to be better off, the same, or worse off in 10-20 years as a result of this war? Will they represent more or less of a regional threat? And where is your claim about the population support coming from? I asked this before (with no answer), but why is Iran blocking the Internet still if the population is rallying behind them? You just say things, eh?
