Asked about the Iran War's effect on defense stocks, Lockheed Martin CEO says: "Investors need to know and understand that this demand is not fleeting — it's permanent."

Do you hate fraud? If so, I’m calling on you to join me in taking the pledge to protect Americans from fraudsters, by doing everything in your power to ensure that: 1. Vulnerable Americans, such as the elderly, indigent, and disabled, are protected from fraudsters who seek to prey on them. 2. Taxpayer-funded programs serve law-abiding Americans, not illegal aliens or fraudsters. 3. Taxpayer-funded benefits are not used by fraudsters to buy mansions or luxury cars. 4. Public agencies and officials work tirelessly and aggressively, coordinating at all levels of government, to stop fraud before payments go out the door. 5. Fraudsters face justice for their crimes in a court of law. Convicted fraudsters will be imprisoned and barred from ever receiving another penny of taxpayer dollars. 6. Illegal alien fraudsters are promptly arrested, prosecuted, imprisoned, and deported, never able to take advantage of Americans’ generosity again.

Let’s Go!! It’s time to return to a Constitutional Republic and kick the De Facto fraudsters to the curb!!! Go to: BrandenburgForGovernor.com Vote Brandenburg for Governor on the US Taxpayers Party!!

Retired Green Beret @IvanRaiklin questioned Fauci face-to-face. Now the Pentagon official who implemented the military's mRNA vaccine mandate is suing him – and he's using her lawsuit to demand answers under oath. He joins @DrKellyVictory LIVE at 5pm ET x.com/i/broadcasts/1aKbdErmY…

This is pretty amazing and I can’t look away.

“I could say the stupidest things and you’d clap.” Crowd claps. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Freaking lemmings.

Breaking: Strategy and a brief class on what it means for today’s global strategic environment. The main reason I offer this short missive below is because in government versus our military, there is a tendency not to consider strategy when it comes to the application of physical force to achieve political ends. We tend to just execute without a clearly defined set of political outcomes. This occurs regardless of which political party is in control of our government. It is well worth considering this definition as a means to an end, especially with the current global environment that America faces. Without that “finger tip feel” of the operational environment, America faces an uncertain outcome in many of our current global engagements. So what exactly is Strategy? Strategy is a system of makeshifts, improvisations, or ad hoc adjustments. It is more than a science, it is the application of science to practical affairs; it is carrying through an originally conceived plan under a constantly shifting set of circumstances. It is the ability to adjust with foresight and resource awareness given a rapidly changing environment. Strategy is also the application of common sense in the work of leading to feasible, acceptable, and suitable outcomes. Strategy’s teachings hardly go beyond the first requirement of common sense (something I personally value in leaders); in fact, its value lies entirely in the concrete application of common sense. It is a matter of understanding correctly at every moment a constantly changing situation, and then doing the simplest and most natural thing with energy and determination. This is what makes war an art, an art that is served by many sciences. Like every art, war cannot be learned rationally, but only by experience. In war, as in art, there can be no set standards nor can a code of set rules take the place of brains. When a leader or nation lacks strategy, subordinate organizations can quickly slip into reactive chaos. Without a clear long-term destination, work turns into a series of random fire drills. What Happens Without a Strategy? Without covering the details I’ll describe categories of actions that affect the application of proper strategy: 1. Constantly Shifting Priorities. 2. Appearance of a Fire-Drill Culture. 3. Burnout and Turnover (ie., Exhaustion). 4. Decision Bottlenecks (in other words, an upward flow of decision making because no one knows what the leader wants to achieve). 5. Tactical Tunnel Vision (not seeing the forest through the trees). So what? Leaders must reflect on the stated goals and objectives and intended end state (and do so constantly). A flexible and creative mind is required at the most senior levels simply due to the changing nature of warfare. This is one of the highest priorities of leaders engaged in warfare (political leaders and otherwise). Like it or not, America faces serious adversaries and many uncertainties and we must constantly adjust our nation’s security strategy based on the circumstances of the ever changing global security environment. Given the speed of information, advancements in technologies, and innovative applications of both the art and science of warfare, our leaders must be highly adaptive and creative, because adversaries now and in the future most certainly will be. And never, ever forget, the enemy has a vote and they will exercise it, constantly. God Bless America 🙏🏼🇺🇸
