Nuclear means cheap power and skilled jobs. DCs mean a draw on power and just take up everything that makes a community worth having. Stop them from coming in and eliminate the ones they got past us.

Institutional evil vs. personal evil. Neither one is a good guy, but at least we can avoid Catholics.

That can be rewritten to say, “Iran mulls starting a hot world war 3.”

If there’s one thing that man will go to his grave knowing, it’s how to work a scam. He may not be able to execute it, but he’ll recognize it long after he stops being able to recognize animals or draw a clock…

Sure. Leo thinks it’s a guide for morals and good living. Trump understands it’s a grift to let old warmongering men stay in charge.

Fat, drunk, and stupid used to be no way to go through life. Now it’s the bare minimum for government employment.

Did the CP/M or PC-DOS guys agree to this?

Finally doing what they should have done day one.

When we had leaders who understood and valued soft power, sure. But that isn’t the way the USA is operating at this moment. Those other nations aren’t in the condition they’re in because of their nukes, it’s because it’s more profitable to keep things as they are.

And the moment they have a nuke and show it off, all hell will break loose. So unless they pull back from Hormuz and cede it either to a US-led coalition or somehow draw the USA into a land war, it will happen again and it will happen again soon.

So it’ll be a soft takeover.

Well, they want a permanent end to the war. Can’t have a war with no one alive on one side of it.

Oh good. Are we going to go back in? Or are we just going to choke them economically?
