What happens when Kavanaugh is confirmed? What happens when the Democrats have their ass handed to them on election day yet again? What happens when the Democrats lose their Minds???? LOL.. The Democrats gave the Deplorables a reason to go to the polls on election day now. Reap what you sow. What Happens?
The US Navy's Pacific Fleet has drawn up a classified proposal to carry out a global show of force as a warning to China and to demonstrate the US is prepared to deter and counter their military actions, according to several US defense officials.
The draft proposal from the Navy is recommending the US Pacific Fleet conduct a series of operations during a single week in November.
Major FONOP inside the Nine Dash Line may be executed next month. For those of you who were not present during the Cold War, you probably will never hear a warning before the flashes start. The Chinks have little experience in nuclear brinksmanship and may miscalculate with no off-ramps to stop a conflagration. They want to try on our boot. That's a bad combination.
Remember: Mass is Life. You will probably live, don't get ARS in the aftermath.
@LVQII - who believes anything CNN says? Even if accurate, my concern is who the hell in the Navy is leaking classified plans to CNN? THAT is the actual story.
Yeah, I know it's CNN with no specific attribution. It could be CNN bullshit, it could be a strategic DOD leak to gauge the Chinee Communist Party's reaction. We used to call this "signaling." It's all part of nuclear brinksmanship.
I've read that this will be the last election where Texans will have the opportunity to vote straight ticket with one box check. Apparently this was deemed to be an advantage for Republicans and therefore had to go. While I have simplified my voting in the past by taking this option, this year I won't. Each individual race will get my personal "Fuck you" to the Democrat running. Think they'll throw me out if they hear the ranting coming from my booth ? "Fuck you, Lupe Valdez. Fuck you, Beto O'Rourke, etc, etc."
". It could be CNN bullshit, it could be a strategic DOD leak to gauge the Chinee Communist Party's reaction"
Or it could be standard contingency planning/war gaming that was not meant to be leaked as a "message" but someone hadda brag how connected they are by talking with the wrong person.
When I was in I participated in planning (often very detailed) on a basis of "what if..." against various "competitors". No actual intentions to execute at that time, but if the time came we had something that could be trimmed and revised as a head start on actual mission planning.
IOW it _could_ be routine ops normal that some twit without a clue caught wind of. Sort of like the breathless BEARS OFF THE COAST OMG!!!! stories the last couple of years when Russian Long Range Aviation dusted off their Soviet era Recon/training route plans.
Early voting is on the agenda for sure. Beto O'Rourke can suck it !!
