Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Thursday warned North Korea that U.S. forces are ready to "fight tonight" after the dictatorship condemned military drills taking place in South Korea.
The U.S. and South Korean militaries have resumed springtime drills in South Korea after pausing exercises last February due to coronavirus concerns.
Austin discussed the U.S. military's commitment to "denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula" and "the importance of maintaining military readiness" during a press conference Wednesday.
"Our force remains ready to 'fight tonight,' and we continue to make progress toward the eventual transition of wartime Operational Control to a [Republic of Korea]-commanded, future Combined Forces Command," the defense secretary said.
He continued: "While meeting all the conditions for this transition will take more time, I'm confident that this process will strengthen our alliance."

So, you are saying that social engineering with trannys and AA hires isn’t good?
Whodathunkit?
Hahaha . Please send in the first Tranny battalion to invade North Korea. I could use a laugh. Maybe some pregnant women can get dropped behind enemy lines.

With that bunch “fighting for” us I might be inclined to root for the NORKS.
If these Democrat misfits start a war, any war, it won’t be supported here.
We’ve been pushed down this road to war by the globalist over and over. But now, most Americans are wise to these deceitful misfits.
LMAO! I thought they were still on “stand down” looking
for evil white supremists
Russia is more of an ally than China, and at least respect Western Culture. IMHO.
Stealing elections with Globalist help has consequences. DJT should be in office, working on the wall and pipeline and helping keep the world in check.
Democrats are complete and utter disasters.
In about two months Biden has managed to press off Russia and North Korea even as he heads to Alaska to give away the store to the Chinese.

Please tell me what earthly benefit the US has gotten from all of these gratuitous insults to important, nuclear armed foreign rulers.
Outfitting tanks with changing tables now.
Looking for a few good men!
Idiots gonna get us in a shooting war.
Exactly right. Our senile, perve president is weak but thinks himself strong and this SecDef is an idiot more interested a social justice DOD than a fighting capable DOD. The combination is a disaster waiting to happen.
Good point. It’s not like Yahoo News is reporting on it.
Utter morons. Threatening NK will result in them making more nukes. It validates their nuke program.
One well placed North Korean nuke with EMP and the US is over. Biden & Austin are okay with that.
No conflict of interest here:
“Austin joined the board of Raytheon Technologies, a military contractor, in April 2016.[40][41] As of October 2020, his Raytheon stock holdings were worth roughly $500,000 and his compensation, including stock, totaled $1.4 million.[40] On September 18, 2017, he was appointed to Nucor’s board of directors.[42] On May 29, 2018, Austin was appointed as an independent director on the board of Tenet Healthcare.[43] He also operates a consulting firm and has been a partner at Pine Island Capital, an investment company with which Antony Blinken and Michèle Flournoy are affiliated.” Wikipedia.
The only thing missing is Lockheed. Maybe he can get himself some of that by saving the mess of the F-35 before he finishes cashing in his chips.
Easy for this fat ass to boast of war. All the children and half-wits are back.
The guy has been a post turtle all his life. Doesn’t belong where he is and has no idea how he got there. That part is wrong. He got where he is by flying his colors just like so many others.
Trump was/is a stable genius. Now we have human excrement running our county, and that includes Austin who is a war profiteer.
the Defense Secretary needs to resign before the end of the day
His comment is outrageous
Agreed. They are natural allies in the fight against Islam and maintaining western civilization. Russia, Poland and Hungary are really all that’s left now.
So, Russia.
I thought the military was in a 60 shutdown to root out pervasive racism or some other woke stuff.
