If this is what we show, it makes me wonder what we're really testing.

IMHO what they are showing is the ability of the MIC to consume every other fiat or taxpayer US $.

IKE was 'right', in more ways than one!

Ike is my favorite POSTUS yes he was right

Now we are all quite literally paying the price for blunders


We spend more that the rest of the world combined on military

And when we were cutting taxes and adding debt rates were .25 now they are 5 %

This is what happens when you cut tax and spend


Bush Tax Cuts $1.5 T
Bush War in Iraq and Afghanistan $8T
Bush 2008 Financial Crisis $2T
Trump Tax Cuts $1.5T
Trump Pandemic Spending $5.4 T

Dont blame me I did not vote for these dunces

Years ago (during Gulf War) - I lived in the Panhandle of FL (Near PNAS and Eglin). Family member was a flier out of PNAS...well, at that time Gulf Breeze supposedly had the highest rate of UFO sightings ever...turns out it was B2 flying from the US to Iraq and back (in a single mission)...the thing is, we had no idea. The fact is, if I know, THEY know (who ever they may be). Plus, idiot Biden has already sold every secret there is to China.

Our nation is FAR less safe today than in an age where we had 'secrets'.

I doubt the B2 was flying combat missions to Iraq from Florida.
Eglin AFB is where the USAF does weapons integration testing. That’s more likely.

What I -heard- was they were getting munitions at Eglin, this is of course a very old rumor. I was 17 at the time and busy with other things. At any case, we did see things all the time. If you Google "Gulf Breeze UFO" there are tons of things. At that time, I lived on the water on Pensacola Beach.

Well, I am certainly pleased to know that you have such a great inside track to all the secrets especially those sold to China. Have the trigraph gov agencies hired you to generate cover stories?

Only in America would you find a kid wearing $150 shoes, drinking at $8 coffee, typing on a $1200 cell phone, complaining on social media that he is oppressed and that capitalism has failed him.

Only in America would you find a draft dodger mishandling secrets and sharing secret Submarine info with an Australian Campaign donor then get on social media and cry that he is a victim and that his Justice Department FBI CIA and Judiciary has failed him

You are free to move about the cabin now that we have hit 45000 feet in the Magaverse where cult 45rs are still falling for the con

Isn't it actually "military industrial complex"? That's the standard uninformed whiner term....

That's actually a term coined by a retired general as he left the most powerful position on earth--Dwight Eisenhower in his farewell speech after two terms as POTUS (The first president to be term-limited). He also warned of the scientific-technological elite, using government funding to support them.

I'm not arguing that, but to believe that a lack of military strength and technological superiority would be anything but a disaster is horribly naive.

It has to be the ugliest aircraft ever built,probably flies like a brick,costs a billion dollars to build, and a must have by the american military establishment, wanting to destroy the planet ahead of the Russian's,

Drill Baby, Drill. Frack Baby Frack. Strip mine the Earth until nothing but an empty shell is left.

Not any worse than employing child laborers/slaves to mine Lithium & other rare metals just so the self righteous eco lovers can drive their EV’s that’ll have to be junked later on because it’ll cost thousands if no tens of thousands to replace the battery when finally spent
