Communist China has never been great at making friends, but this week it made a strategic blunder with its South Pacific neighbors. As reported in India’s The Print, China crossed the line when it threatened the Philippine president for expressing support for the new Taiwanese president, prompting a savage rebuke from the Philippines’ secretary of […]
For a man who wanted to keep his medical issues private, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has managed a botch job that is on par in terms of incompetence — if not perhaps in impact — with the Pentagon’s withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.

I vacuum up information. It’s how my mind works. I started reading when I started talking, not that I remember much about when I became verbal. I was a late bloomer when it came to talking but the opposite when it came to reading. As you can tell, I have spent a lifetime catching up […]
ARGH – I can’t even with these people. Yesterday I was ripping on the Army and thought I’d catch a break, but oh, no. This gem of a military bureaucrat slides into my X feed and depressed my whole day. Even worse, I find out he’s an Army veteran himself and is still mouthing this […]
