Episode description
It's been quite some time since I have responded to "mail" so I have curated five questions to address:.
- What are your personal weapons of choice: rifle or pistol?
- How do you fix the defense acquisition system?
- Is the American military really in terminal collapse?
- Storming America; is it still coming to the US?
- Is America headed to civil war?
I'll offer some more recommendations and a path forward.
