Battleship

I now understand the concept of the Trump Class Battleships. The point of the railgun over a turret of three 16-inch guns is to eliminate the powder bags and the bulky explosive shells. In addition, having a gun turret means several decks of complex machinery to support the turret and load it. The shells weigh approximately 2,000 pounds. In contrast, the railgun has no major moving parts. The railgun gun projectiles are not bulky, nor do they have explosive charges. Explosive charges have a shelf life.As for targets that are masked by terrain, the Battleships will have…

We almost have our Battleships.

We are so close to having the firepower of yore. I have been writing to President Trump about building Trump Thunderclap-Class Battleships.The Navy's Top-Brass who are corrupt, likely agents of an enemy power, are trying to sell President Trump a substandard ship class that is not a Battleship.  A Battleship has to have big guns! I hang the possibility of enemy agents because they have spent more than $50 billion on small, failed ship classes that few were built. Then there was the railgun debacle, which wasted billions. The Japanese were successful with their railgun development, and…

Israeli Heavy Bombers?

I wrote to President Trump about selling three B-1B Lancers to Israel from our boneyard. Israel would update the airframes. I thought it was a good idea because it would allow Israel to act as necessary to destroy offensive nuclear enrichment sites.Then, from a bolt out of the blue, the image of a B-29 Superfortress illuminated in my mind with its statistics. This bomber was the most technologically advanced aircraft in 1945. The R&D for this aircraft was more costly than the Manhattan Project—the A bomb. I thought, What if we build new B-29s for Israel with…

Mark’s Tent cities searches

Over the course of five weeks, I searched for tent cities in U.S. territories, including Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, as well as in Caracas (Venezuela), Taiwan, and Cuba. I found no large-scale tent cities or homeless encampments comparable to those in parts of California in any of these locations.I reported my findings to President Trump. I remain concerned about potential links between cartels and foreign powers like Iran, Russia, or China—or possibly all three. Even more troubling is the idea that some elected officials might be aligned with foreign interests in ways that…

Democrats> Hoax Factory

The Democrats are Hatpin worthy for trying at every turn to undermine Trump's presidency. Let's hearken back to Trump's first term. The Russia collusion hoax was largely disproven. In the Steele dossier, it is alleged that Michael Cohen traveled to Prague to meet with Russians. However, Cohen was in California on the date cited, visiting USC with his son. Additionally, Cohen's passport showed no stamps or travel to Europe around that time.Then there's the rumored recording of President Trump using the n-word in the White House. Claims surfaced from figures like Omarosa Manigault Newman and a former…

Returning to the 2015 Debt-to-GDP Ratio: A Path for President Trump

Current Context (as of November 15, 2025):The U.S. federal debt held by the public stood at 99.8% of GDP at the end of FY 2025 (September 30, 2025), with gross federal debt at approximately 123%. Two weeks ago (October 31, 2025), the gross debt-to-GDP ratio was 123%, based on $38.019 trillion in total debt. In 2015, the public debt-to-GDP ratio was 73.6% — a level last seen before the post-2008 surge in deficits, the 2017 tax cuts, and pandemic-era spending. Returning to 73.6% requires reducing the ratio by ~26 percentage points — a historic fiscal pivot. Below is a…

The Case for Iowa 2.0

I. The Hole in the Fleet Every U.S. Carrier Strike Group (CSG) today is a masterpiece of airpower projection—100,000 tons of diplomacy, 90 aircraft, and a 600-mile reach. Yet when the Marines hit the beach, the gunfire dies. Since the last Iowa-class battleship was decommissioned in 1992, the Navy has had zero ships capable of sustained, high-volume, low-cost coastal bombardment. Tomahawks cost $2 million each. 5-inch guns reach 13 miles and carry 400 rounds. Zumwalt’s advanced guns sit idle—the $800,000 shells were canceled.In a Taiwan Strait scenario, the PLA could dig 100 miles of fortified coastline. Air wings…

If I were the Secretary of War.

I recently learned about Iran’s ghost fleet of oil tankers that Iran uses to circumvent the international sanctions on its oil exports. As much as 5 million barrels of crude are being transferred Ship to Ship [STS] to Chinese tankers daily in the Malacca Strait. Our Virginia 774 class submarines haven’t had the MQ-9B SeaGuardians integrated into the weapon control system. I would make that integration a priority for the Navy.The SeaGuardian drones have an on-station endurance of up to 40 hours in loitering configuration. Our SSN 774s could destroy targets without revealing their presence. Iran is…

Aye, There Be Ghost Ships: Iran’s Shadow Fleet.

Indeed, the seas teem with spectral vessels these days—ghost ships that glide unseen, ferrying forbidden cargo under cloaks of deception. In the South China Sea and beyond, Iran's notorious "shadow fleet" (or "ghost fleet") operates as a clandestine armada, enabling Tehran to smuggle oil despite international sanctions. This network, comprising hundreds of aging tankers, shell companies, and illicit logistics, primarily funnels Iranian crude to China via high-risk ship-to-ship (STS) transfers. These shadowy handoffs often unfold in the Strait of Malacca, off Malaysia's coast—particularly in the Riau Archipelago and Eastern Outer Port Limits—posing grave risks to the environment,…

Protected: Operation: Blue Guardian

President Trump:Good evening. We’re here with the biggest, most tremendous news—nobody does it better than the United States of America, believe me. I’m announcing Operation Blue Guardian, the greatest operation ever. This is about protecting our oceans, the world’s whales—magnificent, intelligent creatures, the best—and sending a powerful message to Japan. They’ve been killing whales, can you believe it? Three hundred, three hundred fifty whales a year, using those brutal harpoon cannons, and they call it fishing or something ridiculous. Not on my watch, not with me as your President!Look, I love Japan, great people, great allies, but…

President Trump’s plan—Winning!

I’m in awe of President Trump’s resilience. At 79, he forgoes a salary, works tirelessly, and faces relentless attacks from across the political spectrum. In June, for the first time in decades, the U.S. government achieved a budget surplus, driven by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)’s aggressive cuts to wasteful spending and strategic tariffs. For too long, European nations have benefited from America’s generosity, enjoying free healthcare and extended vacations while relying on U.S. taxpayers to subsidize their defense through NATO. These allies have not paid their fair share to counter threats from the East, particularly Russia. This…

Observations of Trump’s presidency.

I will share what I saw just minutes after Donald Trump took the oath of the presidency. But first, some house cleaning. The Left labeled Trump as a Nazi dictator. President Trump never implemented a directive that a court ruled was unconstitutional. Whereas, Biden has defied the Supreme Court's ruling twice in implementing two unconstitutional directives. The Supreme Court never ruled any of Trump's directives were racist. However, the Supreme Court did rule Biden's intention to give federal aid solely based on the color of people's skin was racist. Ergo, Biden was making a conscious decision to…

Secret communications with President Trump.

This mysterious being from the Milky Way galaxy doesn't speak any of the languages that the natives to this planet speak. It is a testament to President Trump's intelligence that every word communicated by this being was understood by President Trump. This being is housed in a secure area behind a wall. Only one government official has continuing contact with this being from the Milky Way galaxy. President Trump has had this being from the Milky Way galaxy communicate with him no less than seventy times in the last year alone. This Milky Way galaxy inhabitant has…
