    The gross sums going to the arms makers is obscene. Never has making machines that kill and maim been so profitable or so popular with the members of the US Congress.

    Executives at the five largest US defense companies took home a combined $226,963,847 last year. Retweet if you think we need to rein in military spending.

    Profoundly important point.

    No one should have the possibility of essentially wiping put the entire human race in a nuclear conflict or accidentally “detecting” an incoming strike. Any chance above 0 of creating a nuclear winter is far too great a risk to tolerate.

    Despite the media carping, Biden and Putin made a very significant commitment never to fight a nuclear war—acknowledging the impossibility of ever winning one.

    "The clear statement by the two presidents that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought is an important foundation for reducing nuclear risks." Read the full statement from and Sen. Sam Nunn on the :

    My take on what President Biden and President Putin can accomplish on the nuclear agenda when they get together in Geneva on Wednesday: better keep it simple.

    Planetary Realism demands that the big nations confront the profound, combined threats of Global Warming, nuclear blunder, bio dangers, AI and the militarization of space. Common threat = common vulnerability = common interest.

    "The likely hypocrisy that will envelop plans for a league of democracies is bad enough, but the notion of a democratic crusade against Russia and China is potentially very dangerous." -- Ted Galen Carpenter

    Facts don’t matter when it comes to missile defense. But the money does. Billions and billions!

    It’s possible to intercept short-range missiles. It is harder to hit medium-range, as this failed test of two Aegis interceptors shows. It’s very hard to hit long-range ICBMs. Even under ideal conditions it’s only 50/50 in tests. It’s impossible if there’s decoys, chaff, jammers.

    Time to get real with our taxpayer largess now being siphoned off—unconscionably—by privileged arms merchants💀

    "These enormous sums are justified as necessary to meet the needs of military personnel but in fact, roughly half of the Pentagon's budget is spent on corporations like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, General Dynamics, Raytheon Technologies, & Northrop Grumman."

    The with China, Russia and other major nations is a real breakthrough. The US is back and Biden is leading the way.

    Today I’m bringing together leaders from around the world to meet this moment of climate peril, and extraordinary opportunity. No nation can solve this crisis on its own, and this summit is a step on a path to a secure, prosperous, and sustainable future.
