U.S. officials familiar with the planning said options for “reclaiming” the vital waterway include close cooperation with Panama’s military and, absent that, possible war.

More proof the “deep state” doesn’t exist like it does in the imaginations of the unhinged right.
Oh another 3 day “special” operation.
If this happens the government MUST be overthrown. If your tax dollars are being used to fund the unjustifiable murder of innocent people, you’re just as guilty as the ones doing the shooting. It would be better that we lose millions in a nuclear civil war than become the new Nazis.

Panama Canal seize, Greenland, Canada as 51 state… I guess the 750 US foreign military bases are not enough for them anymore. Viva Colonialism.
In which case now is a pretty good time for all other nations to start shutting down their US bases and deporting all personnel back to America. We don’t need a forward operating base in our country if there’s the potential it could be used in such a manner.
Or he is just a blowhard
He doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt on this and should not be allowed to say such stupid shit as if he’s just some guest on a right wing podcast. He actually controls the world’s most powerful military and can make an invasion happen tomorrow.
His threats against allies and sovereign nations should be grounds for impeachment and removal from office before he does more damage do world stability and the reputation of the US.
I don’t think people on the global political scale should be given this kind of pass.
It’s a matter of time before Trump gets us into a war on our own hemisphere, and when he does, he will impose a draft. I wish some “journalist” (there aren’t really any left any more) would ask him about his opinions on forcing a draft.
I have a 25 year old son, and there is no way I’ll allow him to be dragged off by the government to die in a Trump War whose main objective is to destroy America for Putin, so Trump, Musk and their friends can loot America. There is no way my son will be joining a Trump military for any reason.
Same, putting my kids on the first flight out of the country if I even catch a whiff of Mango Mussolini thinking about imposing a draft.
I have to ask. Isn’t this just leaving the hard part to the poor and unfortunate? Why not have them stay and help stop this thing instead? Would you rather they come back once the dirty part is over? I’m legitimately curious, I do not understand, thank you
Wait. What did I miss? Why mango? He’s orange.
Mango Mussolini gives that beautiful alliteration
A draft is political suicide, nothing would get him off the white house faster. There’s a reason the wars against China and Russia have people from other countries slated to die.
Assuming there’s an election
Please remember that all this is noise to hide the great billionaire sacking of america. Smoke screen.
Threats to other countries isn’t noise… It doesn’t seem appropriate to hand wave away threats to other people.
Yeah I’m getting really sick of that. Invading another country isn’t just “a distraction”
Feels like they’re trying to overwhelm us with a barrage of shit.
The Drake v Kendrick rap battle taught us that refuting your opponent point by point leads to failure. You need to hammer your opponent on his weakest point over and over.
If we focus our efforts on his collapsing of the economy, will we be able to force him to drop the dumb imperialism stuff and focus on defense? I don’t know.
People of the US military: look up “illegal orders” and “Nürnberg” as long as you can find those terms.
'Illegal orders”? Why do you think was the reason for Hegseth to fired JAGs?
“illegal orders” and “Nürnberg”
American and British courts, as a general rule, refused to accept as a defense the plea of obedience to a superior’s illegal orders under any circumstances.
Imagine sacrificing your youth and life to serve your country… And you are given commands by this orange turd…
There is no way my son will be serving in a Trump army, fighting in a Trump war. You know that it will be incompetently managed, with more of an emphasis on making sure lots of government war contracts go to those who have properly kissed his ass and paid bribes/kickbacks, rather than the safe and effective deployment of our troops.
So many things these days scream, “I want action, screw results!” It’s almost like as society we don’t understand mid/long term thinking anymore and are just constantly chasing instant gratification while digging deeper and deeper into the hole we’re trying to get out of.
The market demands results, all hail capitalism. It’s only burned the house down twice.
…Are we the baddies?
Have been for a very long time. (love wkuk)
Well.
There goes the element of surprise.
Scream loudly if you carry a little orange dick.

Case White. Next we will plan an attack on France through the low countries…
Clipperton and St Pierre and Miquelon are just there, up for grabs.
Can we please just invade the White House and depose Donald? Seems better for America.
Exactly. He is the root cause of all of our issues. But going this route will cause a civil war - he still has many die hard supporters who are now unemployed and have too much time on their hands, not to mention the propaganda on social media… who will defend trump until everyone is dead. I can see some of his supporters stepping away if there is a draft. The upside, if there is a civil war Russia won’t be able to help Trump since they’ve been losing at their war for a few years.
Illegal wars are a wonderfull distraction from kleptocracy.
Sheesh, if I had $1.1 trillion every time a Republican administration tried that trick…
technically it’s not a war it’s a ‘спецопера́ция’
Ah yes, the fabled ‘special operations’ thing.
What did we hear from Trumpers last year, that he was the candidate for peace or some such shit?
They meant a candidate for ‘piece.’ A piece of this country, a piece of that country.
Ah, my mistake lol.
