One can only conclude that either this is the latest step in a deliberate effort to sabotage the functioning of the US (and by extension much of the west), or just another monumentally stupid idea brought to life by their limitless incompetence.

They're Russian puppets, both things are true.

I've been having this feeling for a while now, and not just with the US

I'm half-sure Trump put price tags on everything in the WH and every time you see a stupid thing in US foreign policy (local is guided by P25), you may hear Donald's OF donation bell ring.

mitre also has some prime real estate adjacent to mclean metro at tysons east. probably enough for a golf course/country club if you razed everything and took the adjacent park lands.

My money is on the second one, but who knows...

I have maintained for a long time that it's pure incompetence. If they had some sort of goal they would all be in on it together but it doesn't seem like at any time anyone in 47s cabinet actually knows what he's doing.
