also current stockpiles are not comprised entirely of 20MT city busters, they're largely ~500 kt (+/- 100-200 kt) warheads, which while nothing to sneeze at also aren't "wipe Moscow/Berlin/NYC off the map with one hit" sorts of yields

Mostly because a nonzero amount of your warheads are likely to be taken off the board by counterforce strikes from the guy with a lot more warheads

you're assuming every warhead is targeted against a countervalue target Counterforce damage limitation strikes are a very significant part of deterrent math, and if you're giving that up in favor of a small amount of pure countervalue it's a way different (negative) deterrent environment

THERE IS--NO--PEPE SILVIA (in the polycule)

who knew, hanging with a bunch of fascists doing fascist things and spending way too much time on the fascist app would end up with you being a fascist

I dunno if I'd say he's been full lonsdale from the beginning, but this has been his belief system for some years now at least

The new Midway is not good but it is at least basically historically accurate

I was about to say the Nimitz is the second worst modern naval vessel bit in it, the worst being the row of sprucans getting bombed by CGI Vals lmao the best bit is they weren't even at the naval base proper, they were decommissioned vessels at the NISMF in East Loch they set pryo off of bc why not

"Just don't talk to voters at all because that's a better alternative than getting screamed at and dunked on" does not seem like a recipe for long term political success, I have to say

he's going to win but also lol if it's even within 15 (which is very possible, I'd argue potentially likely at this point)

in fairness it's not so much the US DIB as it is "an overinflated bubble that produces little of value and is being held up mainly by investor vibes and bribes"

pete is already preloaded to be bigoted towards catholics from his whackadoo church, DoD vs the Catholic Church is a battle he should absolutely initiate lmao

oh that's the good stuff

idk if anyone included gap extension language in the 27 NDAA.......but that's not law either

incidentally I do not believe the DPA is actually valid law at the moment, because the last reauthorization I was tracking was in last year's NDAA and was through 30 Sept 26; there's a broader modernization amending act that extends it to 2031, but that hasn't passed yet
