Maybe Trump can ban all oil and gas shipments to Hawaii.
An Island state that relies on tourism, fuel shipped in for jets and ships, and has no nuclear power plant would be a third world state after six months. Of course Trump would exclude the military from the ban.
If you are going to fight a war, those four points must be implemented when commiting brave young men to deploy and fight. The US did not implement those actions against North Vietnam. The result was tens of thousands dead and maimed young Americans.
The difference of course was that North Vietnam's ally, the USSR, had nuclear weapons. The Houthi's ally, Iran, doesn't, yet. LBJ was scared spit less that if we used our total ability to damage North Vietnam's ports, transportation infrastructure, etc, the USSR would reply with nukes, thus the "Limited War" in South East Asia. Iran simply cannot be allowed nuclear weapons, ever.
If it was financially viable, silicon valley billionaires would be all over building this as a profit making venture. Pause for chirping crickets. End this boondoggle and sell the right of way already acquired.
If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, call the National Domestic Violence hotline...
"National Domestic Violence hotline, how can I Help you?"
"Yeah. my baby's daddy broke into my home and is threatening to kill me and my children"
"Call 911 and hide in a locked room until the police arrive."
BANG, BANG, "Never mind the problem has been resolved."
"Thank you for calling the National Domestic Violence hotline. Please stay on the line and answer a brief survey about your experience with the National Domestic Violence hotline."
Just how does one prepare for a potentially earth shattering event? Warning will likely be minutes or hours, not enough time to evacuate the area that will need to be evacuated, i.e most of the Pacific Northwest and a good portion of the Midwest.
Not all Californians in Idaho are Califoricators (a term dating back at least to my college days in the ‘70s). But enough are to give the good guys a bad rep.
Californicators by the way are Californian ex pats that move to Idaho to escape the high taxes, insane government, bad air and high crime.Then they turn around and try to get our government to fund the amenities they've grown used to, thus driving up taxes for the rest of us, imposing or attempting to impose their will on things like dairy farms, too stinky, farmers working their fields, too noisy and dusty, wanting to limit hunting, “Bambi Killers” and of course evil firearms. In short trying to turn us into what they fled. If you recognize yourself in the above, you're probably a Califoricator. If you don't welcome to the Gem State.
