Health and Inhumane Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr complained that dying patients who are in hospice care for more than three months must be scamming the system. POTUS Jimmy Carter was in hospice care for nearly two years. RFK Jr himself has been brain dead since 1995. And where in the wide world of sports is US Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY)?
The muscular RFK Jr should test himself to see whether he can survive jumping off Trumpf Tower
At a BBQ this past weekend someone couldn't make it, so the three of us didn't play cards after the delicious repast. No sweat: Plenty of "wine, women, and song" to go around. Fitutzing around at the TV set to find "song," my friend came accoss Copland on the screen. "I never saw that," he remarked. "Me too," chimed my second companion. "Really?" asked I. Breaking a personal rule, I suggested that the three of us watch this star-studded gritty tale of redemption, vengeance, racism, philandering, the mafia, and corruption within the NYPD. Needless to say, my friends were thoroughly entertained. The slightly long Copland contains subtle and not-so subtle homages to other films and works, to include Stalag 13, Hamlet, It's a Wonderful Life, High Noon, The Bonfire of the Vanities, and The Gauntlet. read more
More than 113,000 Russians have reportedly fled to Georgia amid rumors of a military draft and growing fears of mobilization. Meanwhile, Russia received 8,500 North Korean troops, including hundreds of drone operators, and Ukrainian intelligence is warning that the Kremlin may be preparing for a possible new ground offensive from Belarusian territory toward Kiev. After D/CIA John Ratcliffe's secret mission to Moscow last week, Russia test-fired a nuclear-capable ICBM on 28 Aug.

A host of US military leaders have warned US Secretary of War Crimes Pete Kegsbreath that prolonging the illegal war being fought against Iran on Israel's behalf is unsustainable and risks weakening America's ability to confront threats elsewhere, including the US homeland. The dire warnings were detailed for the alcoholic head of the DOD in the 14 Aug edition of the SECDEF Orders Book (SDOB) by the US Army, USN, and USAF leadership, as well as the four-star commanders of EUCOM, PACOM, and SOUTHCOM.
OPERATION AIPAC FURY has weakened the US military and bankrupted the treasury. Universal healthcare for all Americans one day? Hah! Thanks very much Bibi and Miriam!

"US Domestic Change vs. International Naming: US federal documents may reflect "Lake America" on the American side, but international, Canadian, and UN-recognized maps continue to use Lake Ontario. Google Maps and similar services may display a split label depending on user location, but this does not alter the internationally accepted name."

Something similar occured at the Pentagon during "Dubya's" first term. To gin up support for attacking Iraq which had nothing to do with 9/11 or al-Qaida, in 2002 the DOD put on to active duty a cell of military reserve officers who were known neo-cons or Islamophobes. A five-man propaganda cell at the Pentagon massaged the information and intelligence to sell the illegal invasion of Iraq to the American public and newspapers.
There might have been more such agit-prop cells throughout DOD, but I can only account for the one I stumbled across at the Pentagon during my "fantasy military career."
USSECSTATE Colin Powell would later profoundly regret delivering their hype to UNGA and the UN Security Coincil.

FTA: "This is especially true for musicals produced during the 1950s and 1960s, a time when widespread social upheaval -- from the trauma of the Second World War to the polarization of the civil rights movement, the Cold War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. gave rise to fears and frustrations so profound, their traces can be found in even that most escapist of artforms."

All at once, the imbecilic Trumpf junta deported farm, fishing, and slaughterhouse migrant workers from the US, gutted food safety and screw-worm inspectors, and caused a bottleneck of petroleum, chemicals, and fertilizers in the Strait of Hormuz.
And the incompetent Trumpf cabal dangerosly weakened US national security defenses.
All at once.
Breathtakingly remarkable.

"The SECDEF Orders Book (SDOB), typically produced twice monthly, outlines the worldwide availability of US warships, aircraft, personnel, and weapons systems. The SDOB reflects the POTIS priorities for the force, which are carried out by the SECDEF, and includes insights from the military's top generals and admirals that inform the directives the Pentagon issues."

"Laurel and Hardy" better stick to playing ice hockey and not invading Ukraine from Belarusian territory. Minsk's population is against the war in Ukraine and such an unpopular move may loosen Alexander Lukashenko's strangle-hold on power. Moreover, Kiev's hearty and experienced military -- who are exhausted from years of war, but not nearly as demoralized as Russia's -- will punish the on-coming waves of Russian (and Belarusian) cannon-fodder.

*** Trumpf Junta Apparatchik Sean Parnell Angry About Leak -- Witchhunt Coming? ***
From the internet:
"Publishing highly classified assessments from the Secretary's orders book is a crime. It's a betrayal of the force. And much of what they're publishing is inaccurate. Of course, we demand candid military advice. Non-concurs are standard. The Secretary of War Crimes sees them constantly. That's how you run a real military. We are in great shape around the world. This story isn't about readiness. It's TDS and PDS -- they hate Dummkopf Trumpf and alcoholic Secretary Kegsbreath more than they love Amerikkka."
TDS = Trumpf Diarrhea Syndrome accompanied by an acute shortage of toilet paper.
The profoundly underqualified Sean Parnell may be the next Secretary of the US Army.
