Subject: Re: Here, Vlad. Take Ukraine! On a Platter!

… Hegseth opened his remarks to the group of 32 Secretaries of Defense by ridiculously claiming that the US doesn’t have the naval firepower to deal with Russia’s fleet. He told his counterparts with NATO that it will take at least 7 years to rebuild our Navy before it can catch up to Russia. Incompetent, absurd lies, playing right in to Putin’s hands and destroying our credibility on the world stage.

This is absurd. This would embarrass me but I've already heard enough that nothing will.
