    Glad it’s not a Chinese bio weapon virus than can mutate and mess up the economy

    This **** is brilliant.

    Putin is like that really obnoxious white trash neighbor that is jealous of your nice home and car, so he starts throwing garbage in your yard, yelling and lets his animals run all over your property.

    Its a spending issue not a revenue issue.

    $5 trillion a year in revenues should be adequate.

    Mike Turner is a ****ing moron.

    They already had a private meeting tomorrow to discuss.

    I am consistently amazed at the lack of any discipline, ability or class that our elected officials have.

    In 2024 - pretty serious.

    Addressing real issues that impact American's is about the last thing these clowns want to do.

    When a real issue is brought up, they never actually try to solve it - they instead just blame the other side or view it as a way to get 15 minutes of fame.

    Nah - we already had it covered by the Air Force, which specifically protects satellites in space.

    Now the Space Force is a subset of the Air Force.

    There have been concerns of the CCP destroying or jamming satellites for sometime.

    The nuclear element is interesting - and it is another example of Russia under Putin trying to leverage their nuclear capability to get what they want.

    He and his MAGA comrades are itching at the bit to pass word to Trump, who would love nothing more than to pass on to his puppet master Putin and his other love Kim Jong Un.

    We are going to be at risk whether it is a nuclear weapon or our x37b space plane out there.

    Nuking in space isn't a new concept. The US detonated one in the 1960s. It's definitely... well, think about stopping nearly all satellite communication in an instant. Definitely a serious threat.

    If this was a surprise to the US, I think we may want to thank some previous administration for pulling out of some non-nuke proliferation deal and some deal that allowed the US and Russia to watch each other, making sure they don't go ballistic with nukes.

    Putin needs to go. I wouldn’t be surprised if something happens to him in the next 24 months
