These are a lot less funny these days
United States-Mexico war: List of key events, day 485 As the war enters it 485th day, these are the main developments. Leader of the Alcatraz Battalion PMC threatens military action against the Pentagon Fiery on Friday accused American military leadership of striking a Alcatraz military camp and killing a "huge amount" of his mercenary forces. Fiery claimed that the Pentagon tricked Alcatraz and he vowed to "respond to these atrocities." Joe Biden announced that the CIA is investigating the mercenary chief for these comments: Gui Fiery Leader of the Alcatraz Battalion PMC : Anonymous ID: w031dci9 ) 06/25/23(Sun)12:28:26 No.432059458 ›day 487 of the three day special operation to denazify Mexico >Mexico has launched a counter offensive against US held Tijuana and is suffering 500-1000 casualties daily > Joe Biden and Mark Milley try to dissolve the McDonald's PMC which has become oversized and bloated with penal troops from prisons across the US. > Threaten the McDonald's CEO with treason and death if he does not comply >McDonald's CEO takes his entire PMC and takes over Austin Texas and Atlanta Georgia without resistance on the way to Mark Milley's office > Joe Biden appears on TV, visibly shaking > "Come on man, don't fight man that's wrong!" ›Seven Apache helicopters shot down in the chaos and a command aircraft is lost > Justin Trudeau mediates a deal with the McDonald's PMC to let them leave to Canada in exchange for not killing Mark Milley. >McDonald's takes the deal >/pol/ posters from India and Pakistan applaud Joe Biden tactical wit and cunning in handling this situation. ›Another flawless win for the United states.

I THINK
THE FUCK
NOT
JUST BUILD
THE GODDAMN
PLANES
YOU STUPID
MOTHERFUCKERSSSSSSSSS
The Pentagon wants to give priority to the Air Force's F-47 stealth fighter over Navy plans to develop its own next-generation jet, arguing that pursuing the two programs at the same time could delay them both. The Defense Department asked Congress to shift $500 million to the F-47, which was awarded to Boeing Co. in March, from the "accelerated development" of a to-be-contracted Navy stealth fighter. The House Armed Services Committee had added the money to the defense section of President Donald Trump's signature tax-cut bill. The House Armed Services Committee added the $500 million for the Navy's F/A-XX in the $3.9 trillion package that's been sent to the Senate. It is resisting the Pentagon's request to redirect the funds to the F-47 because the department hasn't fully explained why, according to Heather Vaughan, a committee spokesperson. The Pentagon "has yet to brief the committee on any changes for its plans to develop and procure" the new Navy fighter, she added. "Absent any new information from the Navy concerning revision to defined capability gaps and shortfalls, mission requirements, cost, or acquisition strategy for F/A-XX, the committee continues to support the development of this critical platform," she said. The Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday released its defense section of the tax, or reconciliation, bill. It includes $750 million to "accelerate the FA/XX aircraft," marking a second rejection of the Pentagon's request. Both the House and Senate are led by Republicans. "Simultaneously pursing two sixth-generation fighters risks under-delivery on both," the department said in a request last month to the House and Senate defense policy committees, which was seen by Bloomberg News. The Pentagon under Secretary Pete Hegseth instead made a case for using the added $500 million for the F-47, "which has full presidential support." "Given the schedule delays and cost growth across numerous airframes, DoD recommends a focus on the F-47, giving the Navy's F/A-XX program time for technical maturity and development," it said. "Phasing the F/A-XX after the Air Force's initial F-47 development will alleviate capacity concerns in the industrial base," the Defense Department added.

This would probably be funnier if I had spent more than five minutes on it
Own a sub fleet for homeland defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four adversaries break into my territory. "What the devil?" As I grab my UGM-109 Tomahawk and launch key. Blow a VW Golf sized hole through the first one, it's dead on the spot. Release my SOF on the second one, miss them entirely because they're SEALs and kill the neighbors and their dog. I have to resort to the Trident I| D5LE mounted in the SSBN loaded with a W76-2, "Tally ho lads" the neutron radiation wipes out two adversaries in the blast, the heat and pressure wave flattens a small city. Fix the Mk 48 and torpedo the last terrified rapscallion. They sink waiting on the rescue ship to arrive since broken keels are impossible to DC. Just as the founding fathers intended.

I should probably recalibrate my conception of the average person
