The Biden-Sullivan Administration has nine Congressional work days left to process it's remaining billions of Presidential Drawdown Authority.

I expect it to fail to do anything because the DC "De-Escalation" crowd wants Ukraine to lose.

The DC escalation manager arse-wipes are happy to backstab their own party to self-promote.

If I weren't a 33 & 1/3 year DoD quality bureaucrat, it would boggle my mind.

But I've seen careerist stuff like this far too often⬇️

2/
This extreme careerist narcissism is what motivates DC elites.

@JakeSullivan46 and his NSC faction will be a dysfunctional leadership case study for future textbooks, like Robert Strange McNamara was for Vietnam, for the same reasons.

This is the visual representation of "Meaconing" style jamming. ⬇️

Per Wikipedia:

"Meaconing is the interception and rebroadcast of navigation signals. These signals are rebroadcast on the received frequency,

1/
...typically with power higher than the original signal, to confuse enemy navigation. Consequently, aircraft or ground stations are given inaccurate bearings."

A more technical explanation of Meaconing is at the link below⬇️

The multichannel Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) technology in most US GPS guided munitions were designed to render avionics systems immune to direct electronic attack from GPS jammers or other methods of interference.

If ever there was an example of self destructive groupthink...

...it is is Biden-Sullivan Administration National Security Council effort to trash Ukraine that damages the Democrats at a multiplicity of levels.

1/
@JakeSullivan46, Kirby etc. are digging their heels in.

They are so deep into carteerist cover your assets (CYA) they are happy to burn Harris/Walz campaign buy creating Russian sanctuaries from which to launch genocidal strikes on Ukrainian civilians

Likely there is also an element of Biden and Sullivan trying to sabotage V.P. Harris for arguing more support for Ukraine to win Pennsylvania & Michigan Ukrainian-American voters.

This is spite over Kamala pushing Biden aside for the nomination.

Biden-Sullivan Administration statements like this will not help VP Harris with Ukrainian-American voters in Pennsylvania and Michigan.🤢🤮⬇️

1/
You have to wonder at this point if Pres. Biden wants Trump to win, given how the Pentagon media flack is stomping all over VP Harris's political advertising.

"We are focusing on enabling Russia to defend its sovereignty" is something JD Vance would say.😲

If there is no difference between Democrats and the GOP on Ukraine.

Ukrainian-Americans will vote on the economy, inflation, and immigration.

This is an interesting post, not just for what happened to the @LarrySchweikart account, but because for some reason you can't see the bookmark addition (N to N+1) of this post

But it showed up in my bookmarks...strange.

It is not the only thing strange here.

1/
The @LarrySchweikart account received this notice from an account on X that was phishing other accounts and taking them over for blackmail money.

2/ Image
This is how the @LarrySchweikart account X timeline looks like after it was taken over.

This still from the Russian video below is what American lawyers call "...an admission against interest."

The Russian tank shell logistics supply chain is short of fuzes for high explosive shells, lots of reasons.

RuAF logistical dysfunction with HE shells & fuzes🧵
1/
Image
Military explosive charges are built in stages.

That is, the fuze is a chain of very small/volatile explosives (primer & detonator), to a bigger less sensitive charge in the fuze (booster) to set off the main explosive charge.

A fuze is the most expensive part of a shell.

2/
Image
Image
Fuzes degrade faster than the rest of the shell and are generally stored separately in the West using water vapor proof containers like a sealed pop top can with dessicant.

Russia uses wooden boxes for that purpose, see lower left in this photo.⬇️
