The U.S. Missile Defense Shortage is Worse Than Imagined
Donald Trump made a bold and provably wrong claim yesterday about the US air-defense missile inventory: The United States Munitions Stockpiles have, at the medium and upper medium grade, never been higher or better — was stated to me today we have a virtually unlimited…

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth gave one of his signature “I don’t have a small penis” tirades at the Pentagon on Wednesday, ranting and raving about the big, powerful, masculine war machinery that’s currently raining death and destruction upon the people of Iran. “We will fly all day, all…
Why Trump is Losing the War
