Throwing Ferraris at Frisbees is a great way to get the problem across to the average person who might not follow these things closely. Ted is 100% right.
One patriot missile costs between $4 and $4.5 million. An Iranian drone costs about $30,000 - $50,000. We cannot keep throwing Ferraris at frisbees.

A great example of why it’s essential we increase the velocity of our own organisational adaptation. We don’t want to get killed by adversaries adopting our own technology faster than us.

I’m looking at you too New Zealand.
If the US was more competently run, it would be spending a huge amount of effort figuring out how to help Russian and Chinese talent to flee with their wealth and their families to the free world.

Would it be a good idea for @bellingcat to run a crowdfunding raise for a professional health assessment using recent open source content of Putin? Neurological, Oncological, & Psychiatric Surely the US Intelligence community has one, the public should as well.

Despite reports of growing Russian-Chinese partnership, don’t forget Russian + Chinese policy on energy(price) is incompatible. High energy prices over time is friction on the Chinese economy that increases risk of China turning on Russia.
Not to sound alarmist, but at what stage do we start gaming a response to a Russian atmospheric test of a nuclear weapon? Perhaps at high altitude over or adjacent to Ukraine.

Combat in/around Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant is super bad. But the closest thing to a bright side is VVER reactor designs used there are safer than RBMK reactor designs used at Chernobyl. VVERs are easier to stop and possess containment buildings, unlike at Chernobyl ‘86.
