This is one of those interviews that will likely not gain much attention; however, if you listen carefully to how Lockheed Martin CEO James Taiclet describes the need for expanded operations throughout their facilities you get a good perspective on the scale of anticipated foreign intervention by the crew behind Joe Biden.
Joe Biden recently traveled to Alabama to thank Taiclet and his company for increasing production of Javelin missiles. In this interview the weapons manufacturing CEO states the timeline to increase production is a few years and he anticipates the Ukraine conflict will be ongoing throughout.
Additionally, due to the Biden foreign policy James Taiclet happily anticipates conflicts beyond Ukraine, in Tiawan, Iran and North Korea. The CBS stenographer Margaret Brennan doesn’t even pause as she asks questions about how fast more of these wonderful bombs and missiles can be made available. Not a moment of reflection amid the gleeful war drums. Quite remarkable. WATCH:

The MIC needs funding. Always bet on war and inflation. when has government ever done anything else?
2017-2021
Even then… Trump dumped a ton of money into the military because they were so depleted. Which begs the question… Where did all of the money go previously?
Both the Federal Reserve and the Pentagon should undergo a thorough audit. A financial colonoscopy. The results made public instantly.
Absolutely. Could you imagine the kicking and screaming from these turds?
These turds need to have some dirt kicked over them.
I recall one audit made public in the 90s in which military personnel were flagrantly abusing use of government credit cards issued thst were used for everything in the way of entertainment, goods and travel completely unrelated to intended use.
Upwards of a few billion in charges only uncovered after the fact and no one really punished for the gross and intentional misuse.
I remember that. Billions were missing
In my final years before I retired, after holding a government credit card for more than 30 years, the bureaucracy over spending a penny (while thousands were wasted elsewhere) was insane.
I understand there needed to be controls, but I never once saw an instance where someone misused or abused their credit card be held accountable. If problems were found, it was always a one-size-fits-all training or change that came down.
In EVERY instance, there was the possibility of the abuser being stomped on, but it never happened.
In the last 3 years, some genius developed a form that had to be filled out prior to buying ANYTHING with the card, regardless of how much the cost was. A huge majority of what I purchased was under $100.00. I was required to research whatever I was buying, and provide 3 quotes on prices, along with vendor, address and contact information. Supposedly this would make compliance with procurement law better.
The form was filled out and sent to my supervisor. Often he could sign the form, or it might have to be sent to higher HQ for some other bean-counter to sign, and eventually sent back for the purchase to be made.
There was no thought that went into this lunatic process of how much in salaries was wasted on getting some form signed that NOBODY would ever look at. At the end of the month, several pages of paperwork had to be uploaded to Citigroup who held the contract for processing. If there was a discrepancy, incorrect code used, or some other minor problem, everything had to be corrected and re-signed and uploaded once again. If it crossed over a fiscal year, several other HR types got involved to insure the money came from the right budget allocation.
So, in the end, buying a $20 external DVD drive for a laptop would often eat up a few hundred dollars in resources before it ever arrived.
But all of this was minimal compared to the massively fraudulent scam known as GSA Advantage where politically connected, favored groups could throw up a single page web site and make thousands selling widgets to the government.
Or others could abuse their cards for several thousands per month without any consequence.
Disgusting. All of it.
Also, include a forensic audit of each member of Congress to include those who have retired in the last 10 years. It’s time to bring the extent of the corruption to light.
Or in the case of Feinstein, her entire 30+ years in office. Which has made her a multi millionaire several times over on a miserly Senate salary.
She and Pelosi, the other Queen of the Senate.
As well as our current pResident.
why? we know they’re corrupt and will never face justice from the corrupt system. once the foundation’s gone, you gotta just bulldoze it and start over.
This is actually more important.
We can dream…
These days thats all we seem to have.
Pray. Also clean, lubricate, practice, repeat. Beats dreaming every time.
Yup. Been doing just that.
An audit conducted by whom? Can you identify a single government agency or court to do this, that is not compromised?
Put the people most culpable and responsible for the malfeasance in charge of the investigation…. Gov SOP.
Trump tried to audit the Pentagon. Mattis told him to get lost. McConnell will never permit an audit, obviously.
The same place the money we spent on a nonexistent 300,000 man Afghan army went for years, mostly to PO boxes in northern VA and southern MD.
Check each the yearly Financial Disclosure statements of each member of Congress – dollar amounts should be filed under Campaign Donations received.
Over 80 billion conveniently (for the MIC) left in Afghanistan.
Heh, not OUR military.
Unless it was for diversity, social justice, CRT training, meds for STDs, flight suits for pregnant pilots, COVID jabs, and transgender surgeries.
More important then keeping our military up to date with weapons and combat training.
The same place that money went. Governments never have a shortage of problems that they can’t solve… But always have a shortage of money to solve them.
Our DoD would be perfectly capable of defending the US on 1/4 of it’s current budget. They wouldn’t however be able to get up to all of the other stupidity they manage.
Good answer
👍
Congress writes the spending bills. i didn’t see any cutbacks during Trump’s term. just different winners and losers. the actual last cutback was the sequester under and against obama and that latsed like three months and was only temporary. and btw, i dont blame trump. i think the only way to get this corrupt govt under control is if we all stop paying taxes to it.
In addition to cessation of taxes, run the banks, stop paying debt, empty retirement accounts and shun corporate employees of the MIC personally. They made their choices in the name of money and power.
Then we can get to a good solid killing war. That’s how humans are broken. Not with platitudes. History has proven it throughout time.
Former A-10, F-117, MQ-9 and MQ-1 driver….this war for profit has to stop….my eyes are wide open and I did this for 23 years

You can tell by the CEO age he was installed. He did not grow up in the company starting as some riveter, etc. He is a technocrat and probable WEF grad. A few years ago the CSX CEO for about a year had started work as a rail car oiler. Now, yes it seems he had a his ways he got to where he did, but he was a life long train guy.
Search this document for “Taiclet” and you’ll confirm your suspicion.

“He is a technocrat and probable WEF grad.”
His bio says that he’s not only attended WEF meetings, he’s a member of the CFR.
He looks like an evil doppelganger of Bill Whittle.
The War Machine.
Must be fed. Habitually.
Ben Shapiro, Sean Hannity and all the usual Phony Conservatives who are really Globalist Shills wont have any comment on this Loser either
It’s always the opposite of what they say: Trump is dangerous because he’ll start WWIII = he’s dangerous because he won’t start wars – Biden great because he’s a statesman = Bidens good because he start conflicts and keep the Industrial-Military Complex well funded and oiled.
It’s amazing how some of these same libs who are against citizens owning guns to defend themselves, are in favor of the gov’t creating heavy artillery to kill millions.
And are in favor of Ukrainian citizens being armed
If this can kill more Russians, its good.
Are you on active duty and in combat arms? If not go shove it bud
Sorry, I forgot my sarcasm tag…..bud.
or actually arming cartel goons
Only if they and their approved allies, cronies and minions are doing the killing.
plus Biden abandoned billions of dollars of hardware, into enemy hands, increasing our need for weapons
Let’s strap some of these weapons on THEIR kids, and then see what they have to say.
Historically, since WW2, they’d say “not OUR kids.”
Killing and dying in wars is strictly for the ruled class, not the ruling class.
“Nice 4th of July accouterments”
Americans need to say no. They need to stop joining the military. They don’t need our tax dollars – they just print money, but it’s hard to wage war without humans to not just fight on the ground but operate ships, planes, drones, etc.
America is responsible for so much of the conflict worldwide, and in most cases it’s being done to make politicians and other wealthy people richer.
They don’t care about our troops being maimed and killed and they don’t care about the millions of civilians who they are killing or leaving homeless or enslaved.
If the US can’t make a 180 reversal by 2024 it needs to take a dive. It is a net exporter of evil, death, destruction and deception, far worse than China. I don’t see how things improve with us as we are now, on the world stage.
Indeed. I used to think we were the good guys.
Now I wonder, with all of the conflicts the CIA/State Dept has fostered, how many millions of deaths we have caused. Not for a “good cause” but so they can install puppet governments, send aid, and get their kickbacks through their family on the boards of corrupt foreign companies. Not to mention the kickbacks from the MIC through the same scheme.
They are so corrupt, they’ll spend $100 of OUR tax money and cause needless death, just to get $1 in kickbacks. It’s sobering.
For the last 2 centuries…
I made a lot of enemies because I keep saying that it is more than time that the US government gets one over its snout for precisely the reason as stated here. Create skirmishes and outright wars all over the globe just to make money. Not a care what kind of problems it creates for countries that want to just live in peace and be left alone. I realize that there are those around the globe who also benefit from arms manufacture and sales but it still doesn’t minimize the fact that the US is the instigator. It is disgusting.
Soooo correct. The Regime has become the leading exporter of insanity.
However, no need to wait until 2024, the dive is well underway. Everyday is a continuation of the dive (is it a free fall yet?) and what we read here and elsewhere is testimonial to the new depths being reached. Day after day.
And the Biden group also wants to divert VA funds to illegals flooding across our borders.
Good point. They’ll get you injured and then screw you when you need medical care.
It’s all about the money and power. They don’t care one whit about human lives and the chaos they are creating. It’s about the money.

So the real problem with the Iraq war was that a Republican started it. Got it.
We “know” there’s going to be increased demand…..
It’s hard to ‘unsee’ once your eyes are finally open
We truly are in an abusive relationship with our government. They used to at least try to hide this stuff from us. Now, they rub our noses in it. We can not continue to tolerate this.
We need a new Declaration of Independence.
Companies should not be allowed to profit by war. The Government should require that any contract written for munitions and war consumables be restricted to 0% profit (vs. typical 8% or more). Maybe that would at least dampen the glee expressed by companies like Lockheed.
That could actually bring about world peace.

Now we know where that $1.2 Trillion in “infrastructure” spending is going.
Nice work republicans.
What kind of world, does the Supreme Court of America want or expect to see after the bombs and missiles fall on children. With bombs and missiles manufactured in the factories run by the Lockheed Martin CEO?
I call on this court to act with integrity and hope for all families to correct their 2020 mistake.
NOTE TO STACEY ABRAMS – FIND A GOOD LAWYER: True the Vote Announces They Are Releasing Addresses of ALL Ballot Trafficking Stash Houses
According to the evidence discussed in the movie, if you factor in just the Mule ballot traffickers: Trump won with 305 electoral votes. That does not even count all the other fraud that occurred during the election, like the mysterious ballot drops at 3 in the morning or the questionable machines.

Instead of enriching the war machine companies how about ramping up production of baby formula for American moms. Or Fertilizer plants for our farmers. Just so sickening.
Making money on people dying will be the best they can ever hope for in this life.
Hell awaits.
there is a old book out there, the arms of krupp. read that and you have your eyes open as to how much money war makes
for some people. and your right about the state dept. and the CIA making money off any war.
it has bein that way since the dulles brothers
The Ukraine’s very own Pee Wee Herman!
Tool Brennan thinks she’s hot. She’s not.
Number one he looks like a psychopath. Number two he sounds like he knows that the people know what a corrupt BS he is!
As long as people are dying we will make big money.
Waiting for the day, swords made into plow shears and this scumbag out of business. War is never the answer fools.
Typical, the Dems want war, look at the 20th century
Its been very profitable for our well connected economic and political elite.
Not so much for those poor unfortunate souls they”patriotically” send off to do the fighting and dying.
“War is a Racket.”
Because we cannot get to 40 trillion in dept without some help
What isn’t mentioned that the subs use sole source suppliers for electronic components and can’t run to brokerages to get parts. Now where are a lot of these parts made? Southeast Asia you say? 26 and 52 week lead times on critical components. You can’t just redesign to get ahead of the shortages either. I don’t know who we think we are going to war with, we globalized the supply chain for our weapons.
With special forces and other combat communications up-linking through Chinese satellites we may need to be selective in our choice of enemy anyway.
See BS and their stooges at Disgrace the Nation are all for more murder and destruction, making the Masters of War filthy stinking rich.
The fact that we don’t our own semiconductor production is all by design.
None of this needed to happen, stolen elections have deadly consequences.
Good old Margaret. One of the smarty pants girls in the front row of class in school, now in the front row seat of our handbasket.

war mongers are rejoicing. The “progressive” left is ALL IN.
The accusation that America has been traditionally militarist is leftist slander.
The colonists hated having to billet British troops in their homes – it was a huge driving force behind the Revolution.
The Founding Fathers envisioned a country with little or no standing army, but defended instead by a militia. Hence, the Second Amendment.
America had its traditional small and under-equipped standing army in the 1930s. Fortunately, Hitler moved slowly to enact his evil intentions.
Eisenhower, who grew up in the old pacific America, warned about the emerging military/industrial complex.
Leftists are very confused – they love big government but hate the military. How to find an unholy compromise? How about buying the weapons then giving them away to other countries? Bingo!
2nd Amendment was included primarily as a hedge against the tyranny of GOVERNMENT….NOT to equip a self-defense militia…the FFs were students of history and as such dispensed with pure democracy favored by the despots and KNEW even a properly constructed government would over time get out of bounds and need to be curtailed
Expecting increased conflict!?
They are promoting it!
They get the profits and we get the pain.
Here it comes…WAR!

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Ephesians 6:12
History has proven that military FORCE is the only thing tyrants respect.
Its also been proven that too many refuse to learn anything from history.
Ol’ Ike was right.
And as usual, those who have been proven right are ignored or scoffed.
When the economy falters the exporting of war always some how bubbles to the surface.
I’m sure it’s totally at random.
No connection whatsoever!

I have a dilemma. A recruiter from Lockheed has been gauging my interest in a job. No doubt it would pay well, but I’d feel like I was aiding and abetting the FJB regime.
This is why establishment Republicans ganged up on PDJT with the Bushies – too much diplomacy and peace. God help us from these monsters.
Not the only business that is booming…..
Pfizer announced they had logged $26 billion in Q1 sales, marking a quarterly profit of $7.86 billion. Revenue went up 77% while profit was up 61%. The company is on track to bring in over $100 billion in revenue and $32 billion in net income this year, and the vast majority of cash is coming from the American taxpayer and other government “customers” via their taxpayers, who have virtually no say in the matter.

Promoting and profiting from.

This shortly after Biden floated a plan to send VA employees to the southern border to help with the influx of illegal aliens.
Disgusting swine!
What!? To help distribute “Welcome” baskets, direct them to free housing and register them for voting?
There was not much detail on it other than Cruz and possibly other Senators sending a letter to Biden demanding more detail.
I got the sense his clown show floated a plan and Cruz or Grassley got wind of it and started demanding answers.
I even saw an article about shutting down some long-term veterans care facility in Montana so they could send the staff south.
Whatever the plan was, they kept it well hidden from his enablers in the media.
The elites have always warred against the little guy…always. It was obvious to close observers throughout history but now they are so blatant only idiots refuse to acknowledge it. Humans are very good at preying on the weak and innocent and that is why We the People MUST remain armed and vigilant.
They are truly sick, dumb and dangerous.
