Storm Clouds Gathering: Is This It?

by Bill Buppert | Sep 17, 2024 | Blog

Secret Service Director Ron Rowe [9/16/24]: "There could be another geopolitical event that could put the United States into a kinetic conflict or some other... some other issue that may result in additional responsibilities and protectees of the United States Secret Service." Could this be a hint that the USG is seeing increased chatter among potential malefactors planning a terror event in the US? I did a Storming America series on my podcast describing what a large spontaneous kinetic attack on America would look like and the aftermath. Take the 7 October 2023 terror incursion of Israel...

Fraud on Fraud: Compounding The LCS Follies

by Bill Buppert | Sep 16, 2024 | Blog

It only took the DoJ eight years to levy a fine for ripping off tax dollars. Imagine if journalists on the Pentagon beat actually went after the fraud and inefficiencies of the military industrial complex with investigative lenses and FOIA festivals that could shed light on these wacky spending sprees. This fraud occurred on the extraordinary mutli-billion dollar Little Crappy Ship program which has seen "ships" with a 25 year service life retired as early as seven years because they don't work. These are fish reef structures that haven't been sunk yet. Very expensive future fish housing...

Ep 052 “CG Excursion: Churchill: Imperial Bombast and the Death of the West”

by Bill Buppert | Sep 16, 2024 | Chasing Ghosts Podcast

This is an episode to examine what Churchill really did for the West after witnessing the emotional & ahistorical outbursts by the usual suspects after Darryl Cooper from the Martyrmade Podcast appeared on Tucker Carlson on 2 SEP 2024. I am simply addressing the claims of Churchill By Cooper as "the chief villain" which I think was hyperbolic (Cooper accedes to this) because I think Churchill was one of many villains during WWII. I am a reluctant Anglophile and I think historical revisionism is a healthy reaction to triumphalist historiography in the West that has made questioning...

Indefensible: Homeland Defense is Not Available at This Time

by Bill Buppert | Sep 14, 2024 | Blog

I have a challenge for my readers and listeners. The US DoD has spent trillions of dollars and still can't defend the homeland against the ICBM/IRBM threat. "U.S. defense officials have stated that both existing terrestrial- and space-based sensor architectures are insufficient to detect and track hypersonic weapons..." Reentry warheads from ICBMs are by definition hypersonic weapons that re-enter the Earth's atmosphere at very high velocities, on the order of 6–8 kilometers per second (22,000–29,000 km/h; 13,000–18,000 mph) at ICBM ranges. The Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD), as of...

Submarine News: Hold My Beer!

by Bill Buppert | Sep 13, 2024 | Blog

Who knows how expensive this will be and challenging for new rules and culture shifts. They new Virginia’s have “gender neutral” bathrooms. Basically, everyone gets a private stall to themself. Gaucher added, per the outlet, that all future nuclear-powered attack submarines and all new Columbia-class ballistic missile submarines are to be designed "gender-neutral from the keel up." For the New Jersey, that meant adjusting many details, from the height of overhead valves to the privacy of washrooms and berths, the outlet reported. Since admitting women onto submarines, the US Navy has faced...

Hunter Called the Ball

Thompson said this on 12 September 2001. In the 21st century, the US conducted military campaigns in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, NW Pakistan, Somalia, Uganda, Niger and the Horn of Africa. America is no safer and no more prosperous.

Trillions and Trillions! Money for Nothing at the Pentagon

by Bill Buppert | Sep 10, 2024 | Blog, Uncategorized

On this day in 2001 (the day before the 9/11 attacks), Donald Rumsfeld said this: At the 14:15 mark, Rumsfeld says, “Our financial systems are decades old. According to some estimates, we cannot track 2.3 trillion dollars in transactions. We cannot share information from floor to floor in this building. Because it's stored on dozens of different technological systems that are inaccessible or incompatible.” A DoD IG audit report was released on 25 February 2000 which said the following: “For the accounting entries, $2.3 trillion was not supported by adequate audit trails or sufficient...
