    The creators of Franklin (GWN) have challenged the dumb $hit and his staff.  I hope they prevail and totally embarrass the A$$ clown, Hegseth.

    Yup. They are Canucks, so extra incentive to push back.

    Did someone suggest that it would?  I don't remember that.

    I doubt this will amount to much of anything in the end, but I do think it's interesting that the party line from the White House evolved from "killing all these guys on the boat is America's self defense, actually!" to "whatever happened, Pete didn't order the code red!" in the span of 24 hours.

    I wish it were that simple.  There appears to be lots of evidence indicating we've mostly been blowing up fishermen, who I'd think you'd be sympathetic to.  In other cases, there were indications some of these guys might have been trafficking some folks, who, as far as I can imagine, hadn't done anything to deserve getting blown up. 

    The point is that details from our own government have been pretty scarce, and this isn't exactly the most trustworthy crew walking the Earth.  Maybe "trust us!" works for you, but I have no idea why.

    Actually it really is a hellu'va time to be alive because when you read about this $hit show (if not redacted) in history books you are not gonna believe it.
    Now we need to get past this clown show to ensure this style of governing is put on an extended duration hold.  (It will be back in some form in the ebbs and flows of government as that is the nature of the system.)

    Thought that as well a while go.  Totally unqualified.  Left at home to deal with the chatter as the adults such as they are are overseas and addressing the real issues.

    It seems if they really wanted to make it realistic they'd show them all clinging to boats that had already been destroyed, with Franklin then continuing to shoot them.

    You are pretty familiar with boats, engines, fuel burn rates etc. Given that it looks like quad Yamahas on the back of the boat, tell me how the boat makes a 1000 mile passage to reach the US mainland.  You are looking at close to 100 gallons per hour of fuel consumption.
