So tUSA is fighting Russia, in Ukraine?
Also, how does air superiority stop the type of drones used currently in that conflict.
I will hang up and listen. This should be good.

It was definitely a show of force to remind the next two military powers just how behind they are from us still

It's a strategic move and hopefully it plays out to our advantage. I am not going to pretend that Maduro was apprehended solely due to drug and weapons charges, I mean Columbia produces 5X the amount of cocaine. It's the oil reserve that sits in Venezuela and cutting that supply to China and Russia.
The thing that I worry about is if they install Maria Machado as the next Venezuelan president. She is an Israeli stooge.

Is it really though?
Is that hard dollars or relative dollars spending?
If Chinese stuff costs half as much as our stuff costs, then they will spend half as much as we do to keep up.
I’m only focusing on dollars right now not quality
Combined global expendature, in US dollars....we are 23% of that.
Does China get it cheaper? Yeah sure, but how many aircraft do they have? How many carriers? Etc., etc.
Only advantage they have over anyone is manpower. A manpower advantage they do not have the means to deploy anywhere but against immediate neighbors.
China is the epitome of paper tiger. Always has been throughout history.

What just happened?
I’m still having trouble processing what happened in Venezuela, possibly the most badass moment in history.
Think about it, the US just swoops in and takes the Venezuelan president in an hour…without any casualties.
And here’s Russia that couldn’t even do the same with Zelenskyy after 3 years. Holy shite.

I’m starting to think the U.S. military could actually whip China’s arse badly if they weren’t handcuffed as usual.
Unless both sides used nukes, then nobody wins.

Wasn’t an hour. Was like less than 10 mins.

Not only that but drones don't operate on their own and we took out their entire communication network. Some speculate the use of an e-bomb. Venezuela had a whole coast lined with drones from Iran that we just laughed at
Most vastly underestimate the logistics and speed of the U.S. military. That takes an immense amount of technology, training, and therefore money. The U.S. military can move and prepare like no one in history.
No matter what Venezuela had, they just couldn’t get it going in a couple hours especially after we reduced their abilities with the first strikes.
I also think some inside help was likely involved.

We certainly just proved to the world that we're not to be fricked with any more.
Colombia? Cuba? Batter up.

pretty much means that tUSA vs the rest of the world would be over quickly and the rest of the world would not stand much of a chance.
And nobody has a navy even close to the capability of moving an army to invade us. If someone managed to land some troops here then they have to face a civilian population that’s armed to the teeth. The best chance anyone has is to launch ICBMs at us or an EMP to knock the grid out.

The question is why you ever doubted it
why...because half the people on here think that when they see a tictok video of some liberal freak in the military that must mean everyone in the military must be like that and that our military is compromised
in other words most on here lack critical thinking skills and are dumb AF.

we dont have to use things like ebombs, we can do the same through electronic warfare.

Did Putin have legit grounds to go snatch Zelensky and bring him to trial in Russia?

He's a dictator. Whatever he says is the law.

I have another thought that Maduro was propped up from the start by our own CIA. He was entirely too happy to be in custody from the clips and pics we have seen thus far. He was an actor on the biggest stage.
Where does this notion come from?

People are trying to retrofit "globalism" and "The Deep State" where it doesn't logically fit

How does air superiority stop aerial drones? Hmmm... let me think.
