Look at a globe (yeh, I know, Google is modern but a globe will give a better perspective) from the top-down. Note Russia. Note North America. Note what is between Russia and North America. Now, consider the thought that the space of white (The Arctic) becomes part of Russia (hard to believe since Putin has zero…

Commercial shipping and fishing lanes, emergency response... ability to react to aggression. Say an armed conflict actually broke out with Russia. They would be able to leverage their icebreaker fleet to leverage substantial surface based efforts in the region that we would not. In all probability they would have…

I’m not sure about the US, but the Canadian icebreaker fleet also serves several other roles including: safety of commercial sea lanes, breaking out icebound harbours, search and rescue, maintaining aids to navigation, etc.All good things to have.

Little thing called the surface assets of the United States Navy.

Not exactly just access to oil, there’s significant national security implications as well.

because Russia having more control of the worlds gasoil supply chain is somehow better than publicly traded company? really?

Dont they know that telling the US Navy not to do something just makes them do it even harder?

All that video needed was Kim in a white disco suit, snorting cocaine.

Didn’t Jimmy Carter win a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping this?

They’re not trucks. It would take hours of prep on each one to make sure they were completely clean and free of oil/fluids or else the greenies would shit melons.

Someone is pissy today.

Did Trump sign an Executive order that mandates every comment section on GM works a way to mention him or something?

Reaction to a single flag (wrongly placed on a military vehicle)...This is Nazi Germany....

Finally, someone who can actually think for themselves and not freak out. Of course, these posts will never make it to the top of the comments due to the lack of Trump-bashing

Not really. He is all about busting heads and taking names. Simpatico. Plus he has said he will send tons of money toward their respective organizations.

Oh dear! Members of the armed forces are showing support for a president they actually like! What ever will we do!

Kind of makes you wonder if the same thing would have been news had they been flying a flag with Obama’s name on it.

You all are a bunch of cry babies that didn’t get your way.

While against protocol, and some punishment is deserved, I think some of the rhetoric in this article is uncalled for. Didn’t Trump just make a trip to pay respect to the SEAL who was killed in a recent raid? Couldn’t this possibly be a show of support for that action?
