My Congressman just told 13,000 of us on a telephone town hall that the administration is using Article 2 to kill people who are threatening us due to their involvement in the drug cartels and that the president has this authority to do so. This same Congressman said he deplores political violence (like the kind that killed Charlie Kirk). Your information (this substack) should be printed in the newspapers to set the record straight. Thank you.

1) We solved the alcohol problem by legalising and taxing. That is the way to handle drugs.

2) We do not care about Venezuela. We just want the oil!

The use of military force is a policy decision originated by the people. What will we have after engagement and completion that we don’t have now? That’s a matter for public consensus.

Thank you for the analytical point of view on the fumbling of the current administration. Back at the ranch, I would like to hear an analytical viewpoint about the current situation in the US. We could use some reliable and observant intelligence on the goings on in what is left of the Whitehouse and of course, at maralago. I think there should be an intelligence officer assigned by the opposition to each of the players in the trump and what's left of the republican party. Then the analytics and strategies that can be employed to further exploit their fissures. How do we protect our resources? How to we react in the instance of further militaristic assault? Moving toward a hopeful victory, the question of a theory of success is important. What would a post trump world look like?

No matter how poor the strategy is, American service personnel become just as dead.

I say forget the ballroom and plant the dead from Venezuela near the White House.
