Finally! After watching Accountant 2, a major let down...something binge worthy. There are TV shows… and then there’s MobLand—a series so viciously good, it kicks you in the teeth, takes your wallet, and leaves you grinning like a lunatic on a barstool in Belfast. I don’t say this lightly: MobLand might be the most tactically sound, emotionally savage, and flat-out badass show … [Read more...] about MobLand Is the Savage, Tactical Masterpiece Peaky Blinders Fans Have Been Begging For

Andor Season 2 Just Made Star Wars Gritty Again—Tony Gilroy and Diego Luna: The Two-Man Insurgency Against Mediocrity
You ever wake up, and ask yourself—what the hell happened to Star Wars? The franchise that once gave us the Jedi-mind-blowing saga of galactic rebellion and father issues had turned into a squeaky-clean parade of bad space soap operas with all the emotional depth of a TikTok teen influencer. My mom forced my father, under protest as he disliked sci-fi at the time, to take me … [Read more...] about Andor Season 2 Just Made Star Wars Gritty Again—Tony Gilroy and Diego Luna: The Two-Man Insurgency Against Mediocrity
The Death Spiral of Big Defense: How Anduril Is Gutting the Military-Industrial Complex Like a Breacher’s Buzzsaw
Some things are worth repeating... The Fat, the Slow, and the F***ed If you're one of the dinosaur defense contractors fattened off decades of bloated procurement, cozy government kickbacks, and PowerPoint warfare, I’ve got bad news: the end is near. And it’s wearing a black hoodie, drinking Red Bull, and answering to Palmer Luckey. Anduril Industries—the punk rock, … [Read more...] about The Death Spiral of Big Defense: How Anduril Is Gutting the Military-Industrial Complex Like a Breacher’s Buzzsaw
Putin’s Parade of Delusion: How Russia’s Strongman Danced With China on VE Day While His House Smolders
You Can Pin Medals on a Corpse, But It Still Stinks of Death Vladimir Putin just strutted through Red Square like a peacock on bath salts, flexing his crumbling empire during Russia’s annual Victory Day (VE Day) parade. The tanks were polished, the boots snapped in unison, and somewhere off-stage, Stalin's ghost probably sobbed into his vodka. But this wasn’t your … [Read more...] about Putin’s Parade of Delusion: How Russia’s Strongman Danced With China on VE Day While His House Smolders
Anduril Is the Netflix of War—and the Old Defense Giants Are About to Get Blockbuster’d
Spending four years to build a laptop that's obsolete by the time it's finished is basically what the current acquisition system delivers at scale. It's broken. The defense industry is a bloated relic wheezing in the corner, too fat on government contracts to notice it’s being outpaced by leaner, smarter predators. L3, Lockheed, Boeing, Lockheed Martin and the rest, are still … [Read more...] about Anduril Is the Netflix of War—and the Old Defense Giants Are About to Get Blockbuster’d
How the Pentagon Became America’s Junkie War Machine—and Why It’s Time for a Full-System Reboot
Let’s stop bullshitting ourselves: America’s foreign policy lumbers around the globe like a blackout town drunk—smashing windows, claiming it's a rescue mission, and wondering why no one wants the help. For the last 50+ years, we’ve worn the cape of “global leader” while setting half the world on fire—and now we’re shocked people don’t want to invite us to the barbecue. … [Read more...] about How the Pentagon Became America’s Junkie War Machine—and Why It’s Time for a Full-System Reboot
Navy SEALs vs. Special Boat Teams: How to Apply, Train, and Survive Without Crying for Your Momma
One of my favorite stories about SEAL training was from Mike Ritland. He explained that he had purchased Dick Marcinko's book, Rogue Warrior (highly recommend) and waiting hours in line on base for Dick to sign his book in the scorching Camp Pendleton summer heat. When he finally reached Marcinko, Mike enthusiastically said something like, "I've got orders to SEAL training." … [Read more...] about Navy SEALs vs. Special Boat Teams: How to Apply, Train, and Survive Without Crying for Your Momma
Zelensky’s Suicide Mission: Why Ukraine’s Losing Hand Means Trump Holds the Cards
You know it's a bad poker night when you're bluffing with an IOU scribbled on a cocktail napkin and the other guy's holding aces. That's precisely where Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky finds himself—trapped in a geopolitical dumpster fire, relying on U.S. goodwill that's as stable as a meth-fueled Diddy orgy. My first visit was in 2016 during the winter with my … [Read more...] about Zelensky’s Suicide Mission: Why Ukraine’s Losing Hand Means Trump Holds the Cards
Pete Hegseth’s Signal Shenanigans vs. Hillary’s Email Dumpster Fire: Why The Media Needs to Calm the Hell Down
Let's get real: Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is catching heat for chatting military shop on Signal—a secure app that your neighbor Todd probably uses to discuss his fantasy football picks or to dodge alimony payments. The media's reaction? You'd think he leaked launch codes to Putin himself while riding shirtless on a Russian bear. Let's rewind a second and remember when … [Read more...] about Pete Hegseth’s Signal Shenanigans vs. Hillary’s Email Dumpster Fire: Why The Media Needs to Calm the Hell Down
“Rear Admiral” Mistakes: The Night a Navy SEAL Medic Met Thailand’s Finest (Ladyboys)
Figured I'd throw out a funny (And true!) story for the weekend. Here goes...

Inside Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon: Why Chaos Is Exactly What Is Needed
Pete Hegseth just tossed a live grenade into the Pentagon's upper echelon—and God bless him for it. Predictably, the manicured mainstream media jackals have lost their collective minds, feasting ravenously on every scrap of "Dung" they can find or fabricate. Take today's WSJ hit piece on Hegseth titled: Hegseth Faces Heat After New Signal Chat Emerges and Claim of Pentagon … [Read more...] about Inside Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon: Why Chaos Is Exactly What Is Needed
Navy SEAL Dad in Defense of Katy Perry: She Went to Space—and the Internet Had a Full-Blown Meltdown
Nobody likes a bully—especially one with editorial access. I've been on the other end of the hate parade, and it's no fun. Usually,the band is led by some hack reporter, traumatized individual, or D-list celebrity trying to get a moment of fame from the cheap seats. Somebody has to stick up for Katy and tell it how it is. I have fond memories blasting Katy Perry in my Land … [Read more...] about Navy SEAL Dad in Defense of Katy Perry: She Went to Space—and the Internet Had a Full-Blown Meltdown
