Five Things I Think About

 1.  With this cocaine found in the White House.....I wonder if there was any PCP mixed-in, and if some idiot would have gone 'crazy-pcp', and just gone to killing Secret Service guys and the President.  How would people view all this....afterwards?

(based on having watched 'Death Drug' from 1979)

2.  Does the President even know about the 7th grand-child...the kid that Hunter had and has worked some deal with the mother?

3.  I wonder about the 3-percent of folks who say the family pet is NOT a member of the family.

4.  I wonder if the master plan at Bud-Light....was to lose a quarter of all business, and this was written up already in 2022.

5.  I wonder if artificial intelligence (AI) would be better at briefing folks at the White House press conference.

What Really Happens In 2023 If We Miss Pentagon Recruitment Goals?

 It was the middle of 2022....when the Pentagon (particularly the Army) said 'yeah, we missed the recruitment goal'.  Shortly after that, the Air Force and Navy agreed on their goals missed....not quiet by the same number.

Presently, more numbers missed for the summer of 2023.  

Here's the thing, you can also go and readily predict for the summer of 2024, and 2025....all three will miss their goals.  

The Army goal  back in 2022?  The missing number was around 15,000 folks (20-to-25 percent of the written goal).

Presently?  I would imagine that various groups are meeting and discussing the missing people.  Up the bonus program?  Let the overly out-of-shape/fat folks in?  Lessen standards?  

I read yesterday that the House was looking over legislation to allow the Defense Department to bring folks in....without the Cannabis drug test.  At the current pace?  I think Cannabis will be legalized federally and within four years....every BX/PX will have a weed-shop.

Here's the thing....you can look forward to probably 2027 and predict that manpower will be cut drastically, and overseas bases will simply be closed down because they don't have the people to support such a mission. 

Bringing back the draft?  Won't happen.  

Even to involve the National Guard and Reserve?  Yeah.

It's a bold new world approaching.
