re: For Those Blaming Lack of FEMA Funds on Ukraine, A Reminder of How U.S. Fiscal Law Works
Posted by RFK on 10/3/24 at 9:00 pm
I believe we should do everything we can to support those in NC and GA. We can rely on NG training funds, and probably do some creative legal wrangling to make other appropriations viable.
My point is you can't easily take the Ukraine funds and divert it to FEMA.
My understanding is FEMA i...
For Those Blaming Lack of FEMA Funds on Ukraine, A Reminder of How U.S. Fiscal Law Works
Posted by RFK on 10/3/24 at 8:50 pm
Current Ukraine aid mostly comes from drawdown authority and legislation already programmed for Ukraine (through bi-partisan legislation, remember).
You can't just "move it over to Ukraine" like your personal bank account. In other words, whether we are funding Ukraine or not, the problem is Co...

re: Just how much money do dock workers make?
Posted by RFK on 10/2/24 at 11:31 pm
When you consider this as about as unskilled labor as you can find, an average of $120K after 5 years isn’t bad.
I was barely making that 5 years after law school (it was ‘78 though). ...
Do You Recall the Reddit Ukraine Volunteers? Do We Know Where They Are Now?
Posted by RFK on 10/2/24 at 1:42 pm
When the war started there was a group of redditors who volunteered to fight. They were vocal LGBTQ allies, and I remember one photograph showed they were wearing He/Him or She/Her patches. They also wore pink camouflage and had pink weapons, if I remember correctly.
I also remember they essenti...

1. Hypersonic only allows the missile to travel at supersonic speeds in transit. It has to slow down before it hits its target.
Whether this was a hypersonic missile or not, you can’t tell from this video.

This is exactly what Iran wants.
1) not to spark a regional war while 2) also having a response so as not to lose face with their people.
They’re just going to publish that “all missiles hit the Zionists and were very punishing.”
They probably told Israel where the missiles we’re headed...
How Much of Israel’s Calculus is Based on the Pending U.S. Election?

Bibi knows if VP Harris wins, Israel is on their own for the next 4-8 years. Biden has proven the Democratic Party cannot support their self-defense.
On the other hand, Trump is the opposite - so much so that of all the countries who have been caught attempting to meddle in our elections, only I...

What exactly could the justification be?
1. To rid Ukraine of Nazis? Interesting that Ukraine has a Jewish head of state.
2. To prevent NATO’s expansion? This can’t be, since it has had the complete opposite effect.
3. To reaffirm their control of the Crimea Peninsula? Russia would still...
Putin Has a Certain Genius for Toxic Diplomacy - Agree or Disagree?
Posted by RFK on 9/27/24 at 12:53 pm
Since the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, not only has the purpose of NATO been reaffirmed post-Cold War, but it has been strengthened beyond what anyone would have thought imaginable even 5 years ago with the addition of Sweden and Finland.
