Irreverent commentary on international relations, trade, defense, and policymaking. All opinions are frequently victimized by the political winds of change.

@MNoonanishere @catturd2 An armed society is a polite society.

@sky_and_sunshin @Lupilla1961 @trackingdonald @DerrickEvans4WV They most definitely are.

However, if your child knows the lyrics and Tik-Tok dance moves to more than one pop song before knowing their multiplication tables up to 12? Your family is likely exempt from that hiring.

@theurb @ChrisO_wiki Today's DNC sees no difference between the two.

@mikeassad77 @Channel4News Free-riding on American protection while passive-aggressively spending well below the NATO-agreed percentage of GDP on defense.

Nice work if you can get it...

@keno_ako @nicksortor @FFAFamily Trump did. On Day 1, the Biden administration rolled back the energy directives and decided that dependence on foreign nations was the right move.

@AinsworthKeith @nicksortor Read the original BLM mission statement (before the DNC had them "pretty it up"). They were crystal clear about what they wanted to destroy.

@BaltiNoMore2016 You think the trade war started with Trump?

The Canadian tariffs on softwoods, poultry, dairy, and grain products date back to the NAFTA days and Chrétien.

No one has discussed those eye-watering tariffs, nor has anyone explained how they would counter such unfair agreements.

@BullionEx @wholemars Gold and Bitcoin seem to be today's de-facto global standard for backing fiat. I like silver, but the gold-silver ratio decoupled a while ago. Plus, silver takes up too much space in comparison.

(But oh, aren't those old-timey J&M and Englehard silver loaf bars gorgeous??)

@thursaiz @sumit45678901 If you were American leadership, how would you specifically address the high tariffs that Canada previously placed on dairy and Canadian softwoods?
