NYT: Russian Cruise Missile, Deployed Secretly, Violates Treaty, Officials Say


The Russians have secretly developed and deployed a cruise missile in violation of a 1987 treaty. (Just a reminder: Reagan was president in 1987.)

Any comment from the Russian stooge in the WH? Don't believe so.

Hmmm. . . you think this has anything to do with the stooge's parroting the Putin directive to weaken NATO during the campaign. And remember what the stooge recently said. He doesn't joke. (He also doesn't laugh, which is just fucking creepy.)

The stooges' supporters have no fucking idea what any of this means. That's one thing. The WH, with all its high-ranking military officers on staff, has no fucking idea what this means. And the stooge has no fucking idea what to do. Any more than he had any fucking idea what to do, and how to do it, when notified of the North Korean missile test over the weekend. If this is the way they think stuff should be done, I'm submitting my application to become an airline pilot. No experience. Too old. Easily rattled in stressful situations. If it's okay for the country, surely it's okay for an airline pilot. Or a nuclear power plant operator. Or a long-haul trucker.
