Retired in 2011 from the government.
I love the Seahawk players but not happy with what the GM has done with the team.
I enjoy going fishing every chance I get.
I have voted blue for many years, but this years outcome was very sad.

Hey John Schneider who should have got fired?

I compiled some thoughts on the strategic implications of Ukraine’s audacious “Operation Spiderweb”

A lot of folks are talking about the immediate impact, but I wanted to focus on how this strike will reverberate globally.

As always, be careful sharing rumors during fast-moving news events. People will try to hijack the momentum with disinformation.

I’m seeing rumors of Indian jets being shot down and Pakistan retaliating with ballistic missiles — so far, none of that is confirmed.

There has been a lot of coverage about a Ukrainian uncrewed vessel shooting down Russian fighter bombers. It is a significant moment in 21st century war. But military institutions have much to do to exploit such capabilities. My latest at Futura Doctrina

The Meaning of the Russian Fighter Shoot Down: Next Generation Robotic Operations Are Now Integral to War
These events represent not the replacement of humans in war, but the drastic extension of what humans can do in war. Change is needed in military concepts, organisations and leadership models.

A Reagan-appointed judge just issued a scathing rebuke of the government’s actions in the Abrego Garcia case, warning of a constitutional crisis and executive overreach. This ruling is stunning—because it had to be.

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

I find it remarkable, and remarkably indecent, that the 5-justice majority couldn't bring itself to even mention, never mind condemn, the enormous human suffering caused by Trump’s BLATANTLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL deportation of hundreds of people to a dangerous/deadly prison in El Salvador.

I don’t know whether to cry or laugh at this! It’s ridiculous how narrative set by Seahawks PR is removing any critical thinking from fans! Seahawks have been wanting to “run the ball” for a long time. News flash : they can’t run if efficiently bcos of their OL! And hasn’t changed this season too!

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance.

Goldberg said the level of detail in the targeting package that he received via Signal was down to the *names of individuals* to be killed.

That’s the good stuff that includes all kinds of sources and methods and never should have been outside a SCIF.

I’d be in prison if I fucked up that bad.

John Schneider signs Kupp and DLaw (two players at the end of their career) and suddenly he’s cooking? Here’s the reality of this FA:

-We are worser at the QB position, WR position
- OL still sucks and the options in FA aren’t gonna make a huge swing to being better

- Defense remains same
