North Korea fires a ballistic missile from submarine
North Korea today successfully launched a ballistic missile from a submarine, landing it within Japanese waters.
In addition, North Korea on Monday threatened to launch a nuclear attack on the U.S.
North Korea warned Monday that it would launch a preemptive nuclear attack against the U.S. and South Korea if they showed the “slightest sign of aggression” toward Pyongyang while conducting their annual military drills. The North’s Foreign Ministry said its “first-strike” units are prepared to conduct retaliatory strikes on South Korean and U.S. forces, threatening to turn the two nations into “a heap of ashes.”
Don’t worry however. The Obama administration “strongly condemned” the test launch today. That will certainly make a difference.
The support of my readers through the years has given me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Four years ago, just before the 2020 election I wrote that Joe Biden's mental health was suspect. Only in this year has the propaganda mainstream media decided to recognize that basic fact.
Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Even today NASA and Congress refuse to recognize this reality.
In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.

Not to worry, Obama has Joe Biden on it.
And, “nobody messes with Joe”.
Obama has by himself made the world a more dangerous place with his lead from behind strategy, his foreign policy mandates have allowed leaders of dictatorial regimes to act as though no will stop them, and for the most part, no one is stopping them. This will lead to a nuclear Japan as well as many other nations with in the grip of China.
Joe, this is Obama’s gift to the world, and now Hillary (if she should prevail) can further these mighty agendas in making the world a more equal place (for every depraved dictator).
Good reasons for those who can not bring themselves stomach Trump as president to swallow hard and digest a good dose of reality.
I will take the risk of on an unknown but very successful private sector leader, that I consider an American rather than a plainly known and now massively documented threat to our country’s foundation and the peoples freedoms. You do not have to literally be a rocket scientist / engineer to figure this one out.
Its that simple.
North Korea got nuclear weapons during the Obama watch, and Hillary’s neocon fan club. That very dangerous foreign policy failure deserves much more attention than it gets. Trump hasn’t even mentioned it AFAIK. One cannot trust Hillary with Kim’s and the ayatolla’s fingers on the nuclear trigger buttons.
