Pentagon says that climate crisis and and China are 'equally important' threats to US
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] The Pentagon's chief spokesman said that the climate crisis and China are 'equally important' threats to the US.

After the Biden administration warned of the serious national security China poses to the US, Department of Defense press secretary John Kirby told reporters on Wednesday that the current climate crisis is an equal priority.
Contrast this position to what led to last year's destruction of the USS Bonhomme Richard. The command investigation into the incident found the loss was in part because sailors failed to press a button that could have activated a critical fire-suppression system. The investigation found four major areas that contributed to the ultimate destruction of the ship - the material condition of the ship, the lack of training and readiness, the inadequate response of support from the shore, and oversight that would've codified what to do in response to the fire.

A case could be made that the US Pentagon itself is a national threat to the US on a level with that posed by Red China.

Why have they been so silent about Biden's recent long winded releases? ☺

#5 The Japs knew not to invade the US, only try to sink the US fleet at Pearl Harbor even though they were not afraid of China because in the US people are armed so well "there is a gun behind everyblade of grass" per one Jap General. General Milley and the Kamala/Obama/Jarret regime apparently are not as smart as the WWII Jap generals.

#6 To be fair the majority of greenhouse gases are coming out of China and India. The majority of Pacific Ocean pollution is coming out of China and India.

Maybe the Pentagon is preparing the left for some big moves to save the planet... /sarc
