On 26 September 1983, just three weeks after the Soviet military had shot down Korean Air Lines Flight 007, Petrov was the duty officer at the command center for the Oko nuclear early-warning system when the system reported that a missile had been launched from the United States, followed by up to five more. Petrov judged the reports to be a false alarm,[1] and his decision to disobey orders, against Soviet military protocol,[2] is credited with having prevented an erroneous retaliatory nuclear attack on the United States and its NATO allies that could have resulted in large-scale nuclear war. Investigation later confirmed that the Soviet satellite warning system had indeed malfunctioned.

Now imagine this while Cult45's in charge.

Brett Kavanaugh's support gang is not looking real supportive.

But let's talk about how eleven Shouty Old White Dudes managed to miss a great opportunity - and I'm not referring to how they failed to ask the right questions of a nominee who's "qualified" for SCOTUS, while being so totally fucking wrong for the job.

The committee had an expert witness in front of them for hours - someone who has academic credentials out the wazoo, who's a seasoned pro in a field of study that ties in perfectly with the experience of millions of sexual assault victims, and who knows a lot about the inner workings of the human brain - and sadly they missed the chance to ask her the one truly important question: "Dr Ford, please take a few minutes and explain to us why we're acting like such assholes about this whole thing."

And BTW - a coupla points about how Kavanaugh has such great regard for women that his staffers are almost exclusively female:

1 - why would a predator not surround himself with potential prey?

2 - The Charlie Wilson crap: "They can learn how to type, and do the filing - they can't learn how to grow tits."

The Logic Circle

First we make it all but impossible for American farmers to sell their goods to China. Then we borrow money from China to rescue American farmers because they can't sell their goods to China. Then Wall Street collects a percentage of the interest on the loans, paid by American farmers.
