First the Trial, Then the Evidence? Impeachment in Wonderland.
In a scene straight out of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, the GOP-controlled Senate has refused to allow timely testimony from witnesses who had front row seats to Donald Trump’s abuse of power. The senators voted 53-47, strictly along party lines, to table any possible discussion of whether to allow witnesses and documentary evidence until six days of legal arguments and two days of senator questioning had occurred. That means the parties will argue the case and... Read more »

Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah* Ah, the continuing and continuing Washington profiles in cowardice (and worse), the essence of Washington! It's not that forked tongue Susan Collins is the only $enator who cares more about her cushy job as a graft magnet than she does for the United States, but Collins is hell bent on making herself stand out when it comes to such things, no surprise there. She has a "talent" for it. She even feels entitled to your respect because she's honest enough to flaunt her contemptuous duplicity in your face. While the media whores call her a "moderate" or "centrist" Republican,... more »
America's A-10 Warthog Will Never Die For This Reason
*David Axe* *Technology, Americas* Congress. *Key point: *The Air Force acquired the subsonic, twin-engine planes in the 1970s and 1980s in order to destroy Soviet tanks. The U.S. Air Force has all but given up on retiring the A-10 Warthog close-air-support jet. Instead, the flying branch is upgrading the tough ground-attackers so they can fight and survive in high-intensity combat. The Air Force had hoped to begin retiring its 281 A-10s starting in 2015. But Congress blocked the effort. Now the A-10 is safe even as the Air Force considers retiring other plane types. “Acting Ai... more »
Iran Needs To Do More To Combat Terrorist Financing
*David Uren* *Security, Middle East* Or more sanctions are coming. Iran’s economy minister, Farhad Dejpasand, has called on the multilateral Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to discipline the US over its use of budget funds to finance the assassination of General Qassem Soleimani at Baghdad airport. ‘The FATF which claims to confront financing terrorism should notice that now the president of a country [the US] has declared that they will allocate a budget for terrorist acts and they want to use it’, Dejpasand said in Tehran earlier this month. He said the assassination of So... more »
A North Korean Nuclear Strike Could End The World As We Know It
*TNI Staff* *Security, Asia* Let's hope cooler heads prevail. *Key Point:* Once the nuclear threshold is crossed, the only possible response would be nuclear. In the event of a war on the Korean peninsula, how would the United States respond to the use of a tactical nuclear weapon on the battlefield that was not aimed at major population centers? Analysts are divided on the issue, but the majority view is that once the nuclear threshold is crossed, the only possible response would be nuclear. “Once an enemy uses a nuclear weapon—for any reason—it crosses the nuclear threshold a... more »
Could New Six Party Talks Unlock Trump's North Korea Problem?
*Ron Huisken* *Security, Asia* The essence of the Korean story—how it originated and evolved since World War II—has been utterly distorted. US President Donald Trump’s hope that the Korea question—particularly the part about North Korea’s nuclear capabilities—could be resolved by the sheer force of personality has been confirmed as a fantasy. The best that can be said of his meetings with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Singapore in June 2018, Hanoi in February 2019 and Panmunjom in June 2019 is that they broke a lot of ice—the last one, in particular, had an element of casua... more »

The BBC doesn't assent to reporting Royal Assent for Boris's withdrawal bill
BBC One's *News at Six* and *News at Ten *both failed to report that Boris Johnson's withdrawal bill passed its final stage yesterday, gaining Royal Assent, and became law - a historic moment, after the past three years of Parliamentary turmoil. The BBC's failure raised a few eyebrows: *Baroness Meyer*: Can you believe it? BBC News did it again! WAB got royal assent today, but this historic moment wasn't mentioned on the 6 o'clock news. Did the BBC not notice or is their Remain reflex so deeply ingrained? Hardly surprising the BBC is less trusted than ITV. *Helen Grieve*: You're ... more »

Most Of Our Social Problems Are Due To Ego - A Quotation by M.N. Hopkins

There has been so much pain and suffering caused in our world due to the fact that as long as each allow their individual ego tyrant to rule--yes, and ruin your lives, then a spirit of co-operation and the fulfillment one feels when one is truly loved and understood will not be possible within our world.* *© ... more »

Various Thoughts to Consider
Life is not a fairy tale, If you loose your shoe at midnight,you’re probably drunk ……. ! If women are upset at Trump’s naughtiness, who bought 80 millioncopies of “Fifty Shades of Gray”? Bill Clinton paid $850,000 to Paula Jones to get her to go away. Idon’t remember the FBI raiding his lawyer’s office. Not one feminist has defended Sarah Sanders. It seems women’s rightsonly matter if those women are liberal. They sent more troops and armament to arrest Roger Stone than theysent to defend Benghazi. Think about that.

Donald Trump Always Lies But His Behavior Doesn't
In a quote misattributed to Winston Churchill, who neither wrote nor said it, "I no longer listen to people. People lie all the time. But behavior never lies." Indeed, the only thing about Donald Trump, a man who's told over 16,000 lies since Putin put him in charge, that doesn't lie are his actions, misactions and inactions. He only lies about his intent. I've just listened to eight straight hours of the Impeachment managers. Today and tonight, we'd heard from virtually all of them. To a man and woman, they'd presented an ironclad case proving Donald Trump's guilt in... more »
Yes, the Aircraft Carrier Does Have A Future
*Salvatore Babones* *Security, * [image: https://pictures.reuters.com/archive/FLORIDA-SHOOTING--RC2RPD9F8T83.html] Just not in battle. *Key Point:* Aircraft carriers have a future as means of presidential power projection, if not in battle.

While radars on fighters have been getting more and more powerful, dedicated airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) aircraft are still a necessity for most air forces to be competitive in aerial warfare.

However, the P12 has served well and was a very good choice. If one looks at the service weapons of European countries, the Bundeswehr’s P12 is an anomaly. Chambered in .45 ACP, a normally American caliber, the P12 entered service at the turn of the millenium, far after most .45 caliber handguns were... more »
Iran's Air Force May Be Large, But Size Isn't Everything
*David Axe* *Security, Middle East* Iran needs new fighters. *Key Point:* Most of Iran’s fighters are old and outdated. The Iranian air force on paper is one of the biggest air arms in the world. Its order of battle includes around 350 fighters, more than twice as many as the Royal Air Force possesses. But most of Iran’s fighters are old and outdated. The ones that aren’t old are just new copies of old designs. The air force’s squadrons fly American-made F-14s, F-5s and F-4s dating from the 1970s, some 1980s-vintage MiG-29s and Sukhoi fighter-bombers and a few J-7s that the Isl... more »
