National security Threat/Alarm?

@Nemesis

I am reading in the twittersphere that its about the Russians wanting to put a nuclear weapon into space.

The first post I saw said it was connected to space so immediately I jumped to assuming a Armageddon/Deep Impact event.

But who knows it could be anything or nothing.

MSNBC is now reporting that the situation does have something to do with Russia.

Looking like the Russians figured out how to implement Reagan’s Star Wars program.

So that’s the national security hype all about…Russian nukes in space?

Also put’s whole new meaning to Trump space force doesn’t it.

Bartlet: No, but each time, Lucy would find a way to convince Charlie Brown that this time, she wouldn’t pull the ball away, but she would. And once again, Charlie Brown would fall on his butt.
Leo: And that’s funny?
Bartlet: It’s satirical.
Leo: Who’s it satirizing?
Bartlet: The DOD bringing you to the Situation Room everytime they run a new missile test so you can come tell me how great it works so I’ll put money in the NMD system.
Leo: You should put money in the NMD

Just speaking for myself I also had a post deleted in this topic. I even got a mod message alerting me to it.

[e7alr]

I have Board Admin access. I just went through every post from the first to now and I don’t see any deleted posts.

[Nemesis]

I will PM you.

[e7alr]

Or is it this reason…to ramp up some threat to justify reauthorize Section 702 of FISA?

Two opposing factions of the House GOP are both threatening to tank the reauthorization of a critical intelligence surveillance tool as Republicans remain locked in a long-running standoff. One side of the debate views sweeping changes as vital to Americans’ privacy rights and the other warns new limits would critically undermine national security by effectively neutering the program.

I wouldn’t put it pass them to create a threat only to empower themselves with more power.

Yes, sounds like something right out of the swamp playbook. You can’t trust anything our intel agencies say. They missed 9/11 and we lost our rights. They tried to take out a sitting president.
They need to be ended. Can you think of any success they’ve had in 50 years?

They spy on US now!

So it’s fractional orbit bombardment tech?

Wow. I mean the Soviets showed that off back in 1963.

[e7alr]

I saw that and explained it in a PM to him.
