I wonder if the cheat machine was in VA (Elias was there), and not in NJ which seemed safer. Then got stymied when McAwful sank faster than the Titanic.

[Jack Lillywhite]

JamesD, Perhaps!

But it was the mail-in-ballot system that engendered the stealing, cheating and nefarious fraud. Machine voting is a lot harder to rig and manipulate if your side has good poll watchers and judges.

Plus its a lot easier to do forensic analysis of the machines than paper ballots and envelopes.,

There are several on line ammo suppliers. I have used Cheaper Than Dirt in the past for a couple of things. You should be able to get boxes of 20 in most calibers.

I haven't had to buy ammunition for years, Henry. No further comment.

The Commandos are the equivalent of our Recon Marines (Special Operations Command). So depending upon the Marine units involved it could have been a mismatch. The Royal Marines are very good at their jobs.

At the National Training Center @ 75 - 100 miles north of 29 Palms the resident units haven't lost for years. The game is rigged for the visiting units to learn from their mistakes. Sweat more to bleed less.

'Pragmatic Populism' triumphs.

It's only the old, irrelevant conservative ideologues refused to accept the victory sails were filled with gusts of Trump.

[DCSCA]

Just think, if the turncoats and Lincoln Project types had put their moralizing objections to his persona aside and voted for Trump a year ago, you’d only have three more years of his highly entertaining show —

– a strong economy
– inflation would be minimal
– gas affordable, no crude begging Arab OPEC & Putin’s Russia to pump more
– the ports unclogged & TP available
– the borders secured from nearly 2 million illegals breaking into the country
– vaccines would be a matter of choice, not authoritarian mandates
– $85 billion of military equipment would not have been abandoned to the enemy
– there’d have been no January 6
– Ashli Babbitt, Capitol cops & 13 U.S. military personnel would still be alive & scores
more wounded still with their limbs

– America still would be greater than ever telling the world how to eat the cabbage– and the country-- in fact, the world, would have
been thoroughly entertained.

But no.

I do hope that Trump delivered a whole lot of anti-tank missiles and land mines to Ukraine while Joe was bragging about getting a prosecutor fired.

The only thing that will stop either Xi or Putin is pure, complete violence. A-10's and B-1B's with the F-35's shredding their air force.

Putin thinks he has Europe, and especially Germany by the throat now. China is now paying top dollar (@$27/mcf) for our NG but we might just want to redirect it to head off a fuel crisis in Europe after Putin cut the gas off.

This is a pure power play on his part and the only thing he understands is a world of hurt on him and his toadies.

The SAS had parachuted in and done what they had too.

Here's a Bond/Blofeld moment for you- back in the day in London [69/70ish] the folks sat me down on the sofa one afternoon and proceeded to tell me if any one 'grabs you' - we're going to have to consider you dead-- and anything we get back is a plus. I literally laughed out loud- thought they were kidding- what the heck were they talking about-- but they were dead serious. At the time, the old man was an oil exec in the London office and the company had hard dealings w/Libya's Kadaffi and the fear of family members getting kidnapped for ransom as retaliation was real.
