- The use of special operations forces requires coherent strategy from civilian decision makers. My latest for @fpri.bsky.social www.fpri.org/article/2026...
- Provided my quick thoughts on the Venezuela raid to @fpri.bsky.social
- People should watch Altuve when he's on base or holding someone on 2nd. Opposing players always smiling and joking with him - he's adored by everyone who actually plays the game, other than the Yankees and Dodgers, entitled franchises known to be amongst the worst of the sign stealers in the 2010s
- The major will be lecturing the generals on: - why company command is overrated - actually you don't need to try Ranger School as an infantry officer - Half a pushup is just as good as a full pushup
- GWOT rotted the brains of not only a large number of people who participated in it, but also quite a few who didn't.
- This fits.
- BRING HIM HOME, JIM CRANE
- Only one quality team in Texas and it ain’t in Arlington
- For the haters.
- Rob Manfred: not just a shitty commissioner, also a shitty human being
- These assholes are all 31:00 5K guys
- Luhnow was hung out to dry after a deal between Manfred and Jim Crane to find a scape goat.The sign stealing was being done by Cora and Beltran, and Cora has been completely forgiven for some unknown reason. It’s important to realize who was responsible for what.
- Add a 2-4 day with another HR and another 2 RBIs
- He’s been doing this for 5 seasons now since the “scandal” became news. Hears the most vile crap imaginable, and still hits on the road like the HOFer he is. One of the best to ever play the game, no matter what the QAnon “he was wearing a wire” crybabies in NY and LA say.
- Your updates on this clown are sometimes the only good news I see on here all day.
- One of the best out there, and was incredibly gracious with her time when I asked for help integrating ethics into the curriculum for our senior Army ROTC cadets.
