@cdarwin@c.imIn one of his wildest moves to date, Trump is now offering companies access to plutonium from America’s arsenal of cold war nuclear missiles.
On Tuesday, the US Department of Energy (DOE) launched an application for interested parties to apply for access to a maximum of 19 metric tonnes
— a little under 42,000 pounds
— of weapons-grade plutonium, which has long been a key resource undergirding the US nuclear arsenal.
One of the companies anticipated to receive shipmen…

@cdarwin@c.imThe Air Force needs to be prepared to fight against an adversary like China

@qurlyjoe@mstdn.socialSlow Horses is a popular series on AppleTV lately. I highly recommend reading the books it’s based on, starting with the novel by that name, by Mick Herron. Think the George Smiley tales of British Cold War MI5, only seedier, and updated to the 21st century. Grimier, with more infighting and backstabbing. These spies are all fuck-ups who hope to get back in good graces with the real ones, but won’t. 7 novels, 3 novellas; all page-turners. Big recommend.
