A reminder, given today's Ukrainian drone strikes, that it is becoming borderline-insane that we routinely allow ships *owned and operated by DoD-designated Chinese military companies* to sit in our ports with thousands of containers onboard and under their control. https://t.co/7AgDgKkE7O

You have no idea how many milX accounts lost their minds when I called this years ago. Some “serious” defense scholars still have me blocked.
Containerized drone swarms are the future. But they won’t change a thing for the U.S. Navy—we’ve only got 80 commercial ships overseas. https://t.co/qigvouQQ0M
