Donald Trump calls the U.S. military “depleted.” It urgently needs more planes, ships, troops and nuclear weapons, he says, to ensure American predominance in the world. Hillary Clinton has a much different view of the defense and military challenges facing the next president. Her prescriptions are largely echoes of the Obama administration. She begins with […]

Like many Americans, I was taken slightly aback when Hillary Clinton mentioned that it takes four minutes from the time the President decides to launch nuclear weapons to the time that the missiles fire from their silos and submarines in a war that is thankfully hypothetical at this time.  Information surrounding America’s nuclear warfare capabilities are […]

For Jeffrey Epstein and his famous friends, the Aughts were a simpler time, when the businessmen, academics, and celebrities who counted themselves among the playboy philanthropist’s inner circle could freely enjoy the fruits of his extreme wealth and connections. Epstein’s little black book and flight logs read like a virtual Who’s Who: Bill Clinton, Donald […]

Looking largely “over there.” Both nominees are focused on transnational terrorism, especially the threat from the Islamic State group. Clinton proposes ongoing air strikes, working with local forces in Iraq and Syria, and collaborating with allies to dismantle “the global network of terror that supplies money, arms, propaganda, and fighters.”

Trump wants to “bomb the shit out of them,” and as he said in his terrorism speech, “aggressively pursue joint and coalition military operations to crush and destroy [the Islamic State group], international cooperation to cut off their funding, expanded intelligence sharing and cyberwarfare to disrupt and disable their propaganda and recruiting.”

Even their plans for the Islamic State group are nearly identical. When it comes to counterterrorism, the Democratic and Republican nominees are presenting the same ideas, couched in language tailored to different parts of the electorate. And therein lies a much more troubling fact – it’s not just what they’re saying; it’s what they’re not saying.

How disingenuous. Morell and Clinton were both serving in the Obama administration during the rise of the Islamic State. We now know that the CIA was, in fact, training the rebels who ultimately joined ISIS or one of the other terrorist groups that plague the region.
Just when you think American foreign policy couldn’t possibly get any worse, we might get to see what Clinton, emboldened by interventionist enablers in the CIA and State Department, could do with unfettered executive power.

Blurring is usually reserved for four-letter words, nudity, and those who prefer to lurk in the shadows of anonymity.

The FBI has uncovered 15,000 more of Clinton’s “missing” emails. Bad news is, apparently releasing them to the public before the election might not happen.

Barack Obama recruited “Election Observers” across the nation in his two campaign victories, and other Democratic and Republican candidates built robust election-watching networks.

Nevertheless, everyone locally involved was destined to perform a series of events that may very well launch an extremely bloody war.

Of Blackwater’s involvement in the development and execution of such a plan, Erik Prince said that something would be “fully baked by the time the next administration comes on board.”

RIP, Extortion 17: August 6, 2016 marks five years since 30 American military servicemen and a U.S. military dog were killed when a CH-47 Chinook helicopter — call sign Extortion 17 — was shot down in Afghanistan. Extortion 17 remains the greatest single loss of life since the Afghan war started in 2001. Fifteen Navy […]
