@brianbeutler In all seriousness, my greatest fear is how much damage Trump could do in the event of a pandemic.

We already knew the Kremlin was sending men to die in Ukraine. But a new @dossier_center investigation based on leaked military records shows it's far worse than anyone imagined. For soldiers in front-line assault units, the odds of surviving the war are approaching zero.

A fascinating answer from Gen Stan McChrystal to the NY Times on what he thinks about War Secretary Pete Hegseth's bravado culture. Worth remembering he commanded a green beret platoon, an airborne battalion and a Ranger regiment, before running Joint Special Operations Command.

@GernotKramper @RadioFreeTom The Marine Corps could seize Kharg Island, although at a serious cost, and once there they become a very attractive target. I think of Khe Sanh in 1968, where over 700 Marines and others died and 2500 were wounded defending a base of marginal strategic value.

Pres Trump's threat to hit Iran power stations should not happen. In addition to likely being a war crime & leading to Iranian retaliation across the region, it would hurt the Iranian people, who have suffered enough. Incomparably better to back off & start a serious dialogue.
