Has anyone from Biden's admin come out and refuted Trump's DoJ's statements? They need to be on every conservative outlet that will give them a second of time talking how the documents existed before.

The US keeps their reserve in Arizona but it isnt a quick, easy, or cheap process to reactivate a plane depending on how it is stored. We have pulled two B-52s out of storage in the last decade as replacements after a ground fire and a crash. One took 19 months and the other took 12+ months.

How does someone keep a security clearance high enough to be a CIA Deputy Director when you have a child fighting in a foreign army?

If Europe is at war with russia it's unlikely china would willingly provide the steel we need.

I feel like if China wasn't an active participant in a Europe / Russian war they would be more than happy to sell to whoever wants to buy. A prolonged war would significantly weaken both belligerent and strengthen China's global position.
