Can’t get over this KFC looking like a boozer

Alan Dershowitz tells Zev Brenner that he proposed to the Trump administration that they should blockade the Strait of Hormuz to counter Iran's blockade. He wrote a column on April 9th titled, "If Iran Closes Hormuz to Some Ships, U.S. Should to All," which got "a lot of support" from within the administration, he says. "I can't mention who, but some pretty high-ranking people in the administration have seen this article and have agreed with it." Trump announced plans to blockade the Strait three days later.

The United States is on track for an unprecedented level of militarization since the Vietnam War. The signs that the US is preparing for global war are numerous and highly disturbing: 1) The Pentagon has been holding talks with executives from companies like GM, Ford, GE Aerospace, and Oshkosh about using their factory capacity and personnel to boost production of munitions, drones, and other military equipment. Defense Secretary Hegseth has framed this as putting manufacturing on a "wartime footing." 2) In December, eligible men ages 18 to 26 will be automatically registered for the Selective Service draft pool, a change included in the 2026 National Defense Authorization Act that Trump signed in December 2025. The Trump administration has refused to rule out reinstating the draft. 3) The administration is requesting $1.5 trillion for defense in fiscal year 2027. The first time base budget defense spending has hit the $1 trillion mark, representing a 28% increase. The OMB director described this as necessary for "paradigm-shifting investments" to allow the industrial base to "double and triple capabilities." 4) Trump signed an executive order renaming the Department of Defense with the secondary title "Department of War," and Hegseth personally replaced the signage at the Pentagon. 5) The Pentagon released an updated policy in March reframing veterans in the Individual Ready Reserve from a last resort to a "mobilization asset," stating that deliberate plans should account for IRR use, "especially in plans for full mobilization." Task & Purpose Congress also directed the military to conduct a 21st-century mass mobilization exercise. The first since a 1978 Cold War exercise. The Trump mania for wars, which started with Venezuela, continued through Iran and will likely target Cuba next, is now beginning the gear up for World War 3. The enemy picked out is clear. China.
