I am not sure the American military establishment has fully grasped what Trump has actually done here. So let me spell it out in language even a Pentagon procurement officer can understand. Europe has been buying American weapons at a staggering rate. In 2024 alone, US foreign military sales notifications to European countries hit $76 billion. Four times the European average since 2008.  F-35s, missile systems, air defence, ammunition. All of it American. All of it coming with decades of service contracts, maintenance agreements, spare parts, software updates and training programmes worth hundreds of billions more over their operational lifetimes. Between 2020 and 2024, the United States supplied 64 percent of all European weapons imports.  That is now over. Europe has an $860 billion defence plan, and American contractors are being frozen out. The goal is 80 percent of all military purchases from European factories by 2030.  Airbus. Rheinmetall. KNDS. Saab. Leonardo. BAE Systems. They are about to receive the largest order book in the history of European defence industry. Because Trump made it politically impossible for any European government to keep writing cheques to Washington. Some European governments have discussed worries that the Pentagon could remotely disable American F-35 fighters or impose restrictions on how US weapons can be used.  When your supplier is also threatening to annex your allies, that is not paranoia. That is basic procurement logic. Trump set out to make America great again. He has succeeded magnificently. For Rheinmetall. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

Gents, we have Chinese PLA copium here. Soon, the People's Republic will have to make plays for superpower status. How will the PLAAF perform on that day, I wonder?
PLA Military Updates🇨🇳@PLA_MilitaryUpd

To rescue ONE PILOT FROM A F-15E Cost: 2 C-130 DESTROYED 2 UH-60 SHOT DOWN 1 A-10 SHOT DOWN 1 A-10 DAMAGED After the embarrassment from Indian Air Force in May 2025, I think the honorary mention for crashing should be given to USAF now 🤣🤣

This level of disgrace is too much fr. It would've been better for the IRGC that the F-15E hadn't gone down. Then this sort of disgrace wouldn't have happened to them.

Tonight’s operation in Southern Iran which resulted in the successful rescue of a Weapons System Officer (WSO) onboard an American F-15E Strike Eagle downed Friday over Iran, involved hundreds of special forces troops and other military personnel, including members of the U.S. Navy’s SEAL Team Six, dozens of fighter and strike aircraft, helicopters, and cyber, space and other intelligence capabilities, officials tell The New York Times. Senior military officials described the mission to rescue the airman as “one of the most challenging and complex in the history of U.S. Special Operations” given the mountainous terrain, the airman’s injuries and Iranian forces rushing to the location in the mountains of Southern Iran. The WSO evaded Iranian forces for more than 24 hours, at one point hiking up a 7,000ft ridgeline, a senior U.S. military official said. U.S. attack aircraft dropped bombs and opened fire on Iranian convoys to keep them away from the area where the airman was hiding. As U.S. Special Forces converged on the downed airman, they fired their weapons to keep Iranian forces away from the rescue site, but did not engage in a firefight with the Iranians. In a final twist after the officer was rescued, two transport planes that would carry the commandos and the airmen to safety got stuck at a remote base in Iran. Commanders decided to fly in three new planes to extract all the U.S. military personnel and the airman, and they blew up the two disabled planes rather than have them fall into the hands of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

@SamTheSeed I don't think Russia would've performed this badly, even with their immense territory. They knew where the plane went down more than 24hrs ago. There's no excuse, sir.

Systemic top-down failure from the IRGC on stark display. On Friday an F-15E was shot down. 2 pilots in it, both ejected. USAF CSAR was mobilized. These people couldn't surge troops to the location within the first 6hrs or so before the first pilot was rescued. Okay.

Being an Arsenal fan for more than 20 years has made me realize what Arsenal are about to do. Once the club starts playing like this in March/April, just forget about trophies. The pattern is clear.

@Arsenal Gabriel Jesus needs to leave this summer. Enough is enough. Either Kai Havertz starts as a striker or he doesn’t play at all, he’s of no use in the midfield. Norgaard has been really impressive, I hope he gets the chance to play more.

This fuel saga is BIG...V BIG... It was cooked by many cooks! The SPREAD was good and many people EAT. Two Cabinet Secretaries have many questions to answer...that is if we are serious about fighting corruption.

Yoweri Museveni was not a frail old man when he seized power, he was a fresh-faced, 41 year old revolutionary promising heaven on earth to the Ugandan people. In 1986, he famously declared that Africa's greatest problem was leaders who overstayed their welcome. Decades later, that visionary has become the very cautionary tale he once wrote. The tragedy of the African leadership crisis is this recurring cycle of happy beginnings that inevitably lead to horror endings. A man who rose to power fighting against tyranny has spent the last 40 years arresting critics, crushing opposition leaders like Bobi Wine, and dismantling constitutional safeguards to ensure he never has to leave. By 2026, the fundamental change he promised has devolved into a permanent presidency. It is a sobering reminder that a liberator is only as good as the institutions they leave behind, and Museveni chose to build a throne instead of a foundation.

@TheGuy4realll @Winter_Six The US export 90% of crude it mines because it's cannot be refined by their refineries.They later on import over 3m/bpd of crude that's suitable for their refineries.The US imports most of it crude from Canada,if the price rises to 200$ do you think Canada will be selling for 60$
