Nixon’s Secretary of Defense, James Schlesinger, ordered the Pentagon to verify any emergency orders or nuclear attacks with Henry Kissinger or Schlesinger himself when Nixon was drinking heavily and Watergate was closing in on him. I wonder if Mattis’s “suicide pact” extends as far as safeguarding our nukes

We only have 900?

“Where’s the button?” *starts mashing keys with his stubby fingers, indiscriminately*

and contains instructions on how to carry out a strike, locations that can be targeted with the country’s 900-some nukes, a radio transmitter, and authentication codes.

When will the Library of Congress admit that Trump is useless and awful?

We still can’t letthat outrageous slop be normalized, though.

Did we really think the pig who started his campaign slandering Mexicans would look more kindly on other non-Ivanka nationalities?

Par for the course for Annoying Orange Hitler.

They did that because the US press let’s them get away with it. Some of these shit birds the day-glo dictator nominated to ambassadorships are about to find out that the international press is far less tame.
