Dude is in desperation mode.
you first said war budget, but you then changed to war department budget, which are simply not the same thing. most of dept budget isnāt for war, itās to pay people, and build stuff. the entirety of NatGuard is funded by DoD. thereās too much pretending that eliminating the military or its budget somehow fixes all of the problems, but it doesnāt. the tax dollars math doesnāt work, and throwing shade on an important institution as orwellian is just another culture war.
of course, dept of defense sounds better than dept of war, itās a good thing they changed it, at least as a sign that the ideology was starting to change. zoom out post-1949 and youāll see most NATO militaries become a lot more mutual defense oriented, rather than offensive, and doing a lot more than humanitarian missions than the dept of war did. or course wars still happened, i am just comparing pre- and post- ww2. sucks to live in a timeline where changes take centuries and itās not quick enough.

i see. the guy they arrested before he could do anything was clearly FSB. the railroad attack was successful in that they did not detain any suspects yet. at least none that have become public, so the connection to russia is probably circumstantial. but it looks at least related to other acts, e.g. arson in prague, riga, and a few others.

usda is notorious for doing too many things way down in a sprawling tree of sub-departments. $1.5b is just what it spends on rental assistance. another 1b was in the form of construction and housing loans. HUD is tiny comparatively, but it manages for more people.
I think I rescind this. āWeāre not going backā does seem to work well on its own.

18-45 year olds have largely been taken for granted by Dems also. Are we really surprised that a good chunk of them are anti-Dem?
Itās the same thing we saw with hispanics over the last 20 years. Dems have offered them nothing and taken their support for granted and guess what that group has shifted towards the GOP.

Something to do with the lifecycle of the worm, like they arenāt in a larval stage in a bear or something. Usually you get brainworms from deer, apparently.

Not much difference. Before WW2 Spanish American and Mexican American wars were offensive. After WW2 Vietnam and Iraq (at least once) were unarguably offensive and others wars were partially and/or arguably offensive.
I only ever meant the War Department and yeah, changing the name was completely Orwellian.
The notion that the War Department Budget couldnāt be cut by more than, say 30x the HUD budget w/o affecting the defensive security of the US is just stupid.
Lotta countries have undergone tremendous changes along these lines in the last decades. USA just not one of them.
Maybe there wasnāt room in his freezer for the bear because there was already a deer in it.
