The name change to Dept of War was in the junta's mind from the beginning.

Dummkopf Trumpf had a skip of the tongue when he referred to Pete Hogsbreath as Secretary of War months before the name change announcement.

The NDAA that Congress signed into law in late Dec 2025 made draft registration automatic, starting later this year.

The Trumpf Crime Family (TCF) realized there's more money to be made in the military-industrial complex than real estate.

With a plurality of the vote, Trumpf has turned Amerikkka into a punch-drunk boxer picking on easy targets to enrich his family. But Iran isn't so easy.

Nevertheless, win or lose, the TCF will make money with all the wars, battleship and drone contracts, etc while we suffer without universal healthcare.

"But, but that model won't work anywhere else! Zohran Mamdani is too far to the left! Vote center and keep the status quo alive! You have to listen to Barney Frank, James Fetterman, Andrew Cuomo, and George Santos!"

I have an old friend who historically voted Republican because he said they were "better for Israel."

"RC" had to bury his mother in the free Jewish cemetery on Staten Island.

Driving from Queens to Staten Island is no picnic.

I trust he's doing OK in his rent-controlled apartment-- a Democratic Party idea-- in a Democratic Party-controlled NYC which is looking after all poor people: Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Sikh, Atheist/Agnostic, Buddhist, Orthodox, Hindu, and Greek Pantheonists.

The Likud opposition knew if Benjamin Netanyahu won, there would be an increase in Arab land grabbing and homophobia because of Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich. He is not a good human being.

The opposition may not have expected the scale of anti-LGBTQ behavior, or even the persecution of Christians, but intolerance is intolerance.

Morning Doc Sarvis:

Glad you appreciated the KGC allusion.

The other two historic (or a-historic) trends I've noticed.

Imperialism has had East-West or North-to-South trajectories. The US attempts to seize Canada failed during the War of 1812 and the subsequent Hunter Lodge movements were unofficial and some were tied to the Fenians.

US imperialism has been for centuries oriented NORTH to SOUTH and EAST to WEST.

Now we have this complete reversal of Americans looking aggressively NORTH-- a-historical in our collective subconscious.

The other thing-- which may be a coincidence-- but Dummkopf' Trumpf's targets are countries with universal healthcare: Greenland, Iran, Venezuela, Ecuador, and now Cuba. Trumpf has also intimated threats against Colombia and Mexico (which will have universal healthcare in 2027).

Hugh Mass: I hope the VA cuts don't affect you. My friend attends a facility that is getting axed and he already drove a long distance to get there.

*** Nefarious Trumpf Junta Pushing to Expand Military Role in Greenland ***

Excerpted from the NYT :

The US has engaged in four months of confidential negotiations with Greenland and Denmark regarding the future of the Arctic island.

These discussions were initiated to resolve tensions following President Trump's threats of a military takeover of Greenland.

Greenlandic leaders express concern that the U.S. is seeking to establish a significantly larger role on the island, potentially undermining their sovereignty.

The US is pushing for a 'forever clause' in military arrangements to ensure American troops remain in Greenland regardless of the island's future independence status.

Washington is seeking effective veto power over major investment deals in Greenland to prevent competition from nations like China and Russia.

Negotiations include potential cooperation on the extraction of Greenland's vast natural resources, including oil, uranium, and rare earth minerals.

The Pentagon is actively planning military expansion, including the inspection of infrastructure in southern Greenland for potential troop housing.

Greenlandic officials fear that meeting US demands would effectively prevent the island from ever achieving true independence.

Despite official rhetoric stating that Greenland's future remains in the hands of its 57,000 residents, local leaders feel their autonomy is being compromised by these proposals.

There is ongoing anxiety among Greenlandic politicians that aggressive US attention could intensify if geopolitical conflicts elsewhere, such as in Iran, subside.

Hi Doc Sarvis

Trumpf 2.0 is the modern version of the Knights of the Golden Circle (KGC).

Note that Dummkopf Trumpf sent his least incompetent apparatchik to talk to the Cubans: Ex-ambulance chaser D/CIA John Ratcliffe.

Our useless Congress folded in June 2025 when Trumpf illegally attacked Iran the first time and the floodgates o war opened up.

In late 2025 both Pope Leo XIV and the editors of The Economist predicted all of this bellicose behavior from Trumpf and Benjamin Netanyahu.

Both the Economist and the Vatican have excellent intelligence networks: The EIU and the "Entity."

And we get stuck with the ginormous bill, inflation, and the coming effects of the BBB.

A senior US official said that the US intelligence information highlights the degree to which the sinister Trumpf junta views the island as a growing threat due to advancements in drone warfare and the presence of Iranian military advisers in Havana.

Last Thursday, D/CIA John Ratcliffe traveled to Cuba to urge Cuban leaders to dismantle their communist government to end crippling American sanctions.

"Director Ratcliffe made clear that Cuba can no longer serve as a platform for adversaries to advance hostile agendas in our hemisphere," a CIA official stated. "The Western Hemisphere cannot be our adversaries' playground."

Installing a pro-US satrapy in Cuba has been a dream of many right-wingers and nogoodniks for over a century.

"Michael... we're bigger than US Steel." - Hyman Roth in The Godfather

Perfect, just perfect.

Republicans and MAGA like Formula One auto racing:

"The 2026 F1 season starts in Melbourne on 8 March and ends with a triple header in November-December, featuring 24 races including six sprints across 21 countries."

I wonder how much that crash cost the hardworking American taxpayer?

AI spit this out when I entered the linked NBC News story:

"The F-35A costs about $110.3 million per unit.

The F-15EX costs around $117 million per aircraft."

The US isn't militarized enough that we need useless, fuel-eating air shows and NFL and MLB players wearing camouflage pattern uniforms.

Does your obvious hatred of Jews make you believe anyone would believe your obvious lie, Caius Marcius Coriolanus?
Seriously?
