One thing I appreciate about @davetroy's work is accuracy. Pouring out πŸ«—πŸ«—πŸ«—πŸ«—πŸ«— out of 5 β˜ οΈπŸ‡πŸΉ's for not saying Kool-Aid.
Somewhere, deep inside Mar-a-Lago… the flavor-aid is being prepared.

Well... it's made with AI. Duh. It's also maybe one the most surreal political propaganda parody generations to date. I muchly approve very much.

America needs more of this kind of smackdown. And Tommy is likely a Christian In Name only.
This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

AI does allow for some dank memes. Is "dank" still a cool description of something? I dunno. I may be getting old.

Fox Nooze plays seconds long clips of the most violent but statistically rare interactions over and over and over in up to two minute video loops in the sqeeze-back window over their news readers shoulder. Meanwhile the Fox news readers spend up to two minutes building propaganda narratives about the looping clip. It's literally the reverse effect of the deprogramming scenes right out of Kubrick's film A Clockwork Orange.
This cray-cray, brainwashed MAGA dipshit thinks Trump calls his housekeeper and cook every day to thank them, and believes that watching news media other than Fox makes people want to murder others. πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

The investigations can't come fast enough!
Johnson on Fox: "If [Democrats] took over, they would turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body. They'd spend every day investigating the president, the first family, the cabinet, donors to the party, leaders of business ...

MAGA's greatest president in their lifetimes... if not the greatest leader in all of human history. MAGA. A basket full of Stupid.
Trump is 80 and just discovered dumb is spelled with a B. The B is silent. He is not.

This fuknut can't be tossed in the dustbin of faiked leaders fast enough.
Hegseth: A free press is of course important. But partisan activism that intentionally smears the troops and the historic mission that they're undertaking is fundamentally anti-American. It's treason.

If the onboard systems intelligence is like of the Anduril Dive-LD, the last autonomous mini-sub Iran captured, the sub's AI maintains very limited onboard records for a very short amount of time and, crucially, the AI and hardware is designed to detect tampering and will destroy all existing onboard data and completely scramble beyond reconstruction the AI any AI related elements or components.
Iran Captures SECOND U.S. Underwater Drone Submarine The IRGC released the first footage of what it says is a captured REMUS 600, an advanced U.S.-developed unmanned underwater vehicle. Iran could now potentially access its stored routes, sonar data, search patterns and navigation settings. The real prize is the DATA inside.

The scuttlebutt on the USS Montgomery & The Independence-Variant LCS The USS Montgomery (LCS 8) is a fast, agile, aluminum trimaran warship featuring a shallow 14-to-15-foot draft and speeds exceeding 40 knots. It is purpose-built to operate in near-shore (littoral) environments and shallow ports where larger traditional warships cannot safely navigate. ------------------------------ ## Modular Mission Design & Capabilities Unlike traditional fixed-role warships, this class uses swappable, modular mission packages that allow it to adapt to specific tactical threats. It can carry out three primary operational roles: * Surface Warfare (SUW): Defeats small-boat "swarm tactics" using dual 30mm automatic cannons, AGM-114L Longbow Hellfire missiles, and 11-meter Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats (RHIBs) for maritime security boarding teams. * Mine Countermeasures (MCM): Safely hunts and neutralizes naval mines from a distance using airborne lasers, towed sonar imaging (AN/AQS-20C), and specialized unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs). * Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW): Tracks quiet diesel-electric submarines in noisy coastal waters using a Variable Depth Sonar (VDS) and an onboard MH-60R Seahawk helicopter equipped with sonobuoys and torpedoes. * Marine Corps Integration: Acts as an expeditionary "lily pad" to refuel and rearm Marine helicopters, provides precision coastal fire support, and clears sea lanes to support island-hopping logistics (EABO). ------------------------------ ## Why They Are Necessary in Addition to Frigates While a guided-missile frigate is an heavily armed, multi-mission vessel designed for high-intensity open-ocean (blue-water) combat, it leaves operational gaps that the LCS class is uniquely equipped to fill: LCS vs. Frigate Operational Roles β”Œβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β” β”‚ LITTORAL ZONE (Near-Shore) β”‚ BLUE-WATER (Open Ocean)β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”Όβ”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€ β”‚ β–  Shallow Draft Navigation β”‚ β–  Deep Ocean Escort β”‚ β”‚ β–  Dedicated Mine Clearing β”‚ β–  Fleet Air Defense β”‚ β”‚ β–  Small-Boat Swarm Defense β”‚ β–  Heavy Anti-Ship VLS β”‚ β”‚ [LCS SPECIALTY] β”‚ [FRIGATE SPECIALTY] β”‚ β””β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”€β”˜ 1. Shallow-Water Access: A frigate's larger size and deeper draft prevent it from entering tight coastal archipelagos and shallow harbors where littoral combat ships thrive. 2. Dedicated Mine Warfare: Frigates lack specialized, organic mine-hunting suites. The LCS provides a dedicated platform to clear sea lanes so larger combat fleets and Marine landing forces can pass safely. 3. Cost-Effective Niche Deployment: Using a multi-billion-dollar frigate for low-intensity coastal patrols, anti-piracy, or counter-swarm operations is a waste of high-end vertical launching system (VLS) missiles. The LCS handles specialized shallow-water threats economically, freeing up frigates to protect carrier strike groups from long-range air and missile attacks.

Cut the greatest president in whatever some slack! 15 years of riding velociraptors shirtless firing two machine guns to save baby Jesus and George Washington from Karl Marx and BLM takes a toll on a leader!
Watch Xi in comparison. It’s not that loud, but Trump’s brain does not filter input correctly anymore due to his worsening frontotemporal dementia. The sound made his nervous system go into full overloadβ€”which registers as pain. Note the glove. It is not cold. Sad.

What does SECDRNK Kegsbreath of the DoH!, Department of Hangovers, say? "No quarter!" if I recall correctly?
This is what every MAGA who is finally done supporting Trump and wonders why we aren’t applauding them fails to grasp

Comrade Flynnski appears to continue playing for Team Evil.
It cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal bills to say it, but this motherfucker is the worst traitor in American history. In life, @GenFlynn, there are actions and reactions. You fucked with the wrong blogger. I will see you in shackles, so help me. #ArrestMikeFlynn #SlavaUkraini
