Son, Husband, Father. Served 🇺🇸 30 years Wherever the NAVY⚓️sent me. #FLYNAVY 🛩 My views are my own.

@CENTCOM Sounds good. When you’re ready to get real about opening the strait, let us know. Until the Army and Marines get involved and secure the land on either side of the Strait, you look and sound like fools.

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@Defence_IDA Can you be more specific? Sounds like they wrote some one word excuses then threw a dart 🎯 to pick what to blame the delay on. 🤷‍♂️🙄

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@WallStreetMav That’s not what the Commanding Officer of the Blue Angles said. Nor how the pilot flying feels. He admits to making a mistake and I respect them even more for their honesty. 30year Naval Aviator speaking. IYKYK. Otw, stfu

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@SeanParnellASW @DOWResponse Actions, not words.

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@sentdefender Hasn’t CENTCOM been watching Ukraine 🇺🇦 Armed Forces for the last 4 years? 🤔😉

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@RodalysR @WSJ Agree that building trust takes time. It is also built on actions much more so than words. The US actions over the past century + shows the US has shown up repeatedly and carried the bulk of the cost 💲 for the last 80 years. Time for Europe to contribute to their own defense.

@USARPAC @USArmy @INDOPACOM @USEmbassyPH How about including what country and military command Maj Gen Pasamonte represents? You know, the basics.

@iz0yiv @wartranslated Nothing. Only light travels through them. "optical"

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@Luckyioo @bernhard_knoll @wartranslated Either way, it's a waste and unneeded. 🕊️

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@realdailythom @sentdefender 3-star/4-star... either way he's not going hungry.

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@jestebanez @visegrad24 Good point, but different topography and geography. Korea is a peninsula with seas on either side and mountainous, creating channeling and natural barriers. Maginot line didn't have these advantages.

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@ILA_NewsX @PeteHegseth @POTUS @DeptofWar Tell me you don't know geography without telling me...

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@PeteHegseth @POTUS @DeptofWar Oh, why didn't you say that before?... Based on INTELLIGENCE. 🤫 Like the Gulf of Tonkin intel, or the WMD in Iraq in 2003, or the Russiagate Intel in 2016, or Russia defeats Ukraine in 3 days? 🤔 💯reliable.

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@10FathomLine @sentdefender Technically just the Senate. But it does take Congress to Declare War or Authorize the Use of Military Force (AUMF).

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@sentdefender When u keep a "pet" viper in your house, you have to expect these things...

@leo_shane @Orion__int Roman author Vegetius Renatus, In the 5th-century wrote: "Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum" ("Therefore let him who desires peace, prepare for war"). 
His philosophy was that maintaining a strong and well-trained army during times of peace would act as a deterrent.

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@leo_shane @Orion__int There are some who think like that, but they haven’t been in uniform. We know better. 🫶

@DVKirichenko Rubicon is likely composed of "smarter people" who recognize that life expectancy in a drone unit, while still dangerous, is light-years preferred to an infantry unit conducting meat-wave attacks.

[TriggerDown @TriggerGreve]

@devastellar @InsightfulWatch Wow, so much venom in this. Must be wonderful to be perfect humans. 🫶

@HfcmoreiraHugo @vonderleyen And this thread 🧵 demonstrates why Europe will never become unified. And why Europeans wanted the United States to stay involved on the continent after WWII. Unfortunately, it took 75 years for an ugly American to make it to the White House. God Bless us all, each and everyone.
