  1. Also for context - there is no fear of nuclear winter as these weapons arent hitting the ground. Nuclear was is scary enough without the lies and misinformation coming from carnies like this chick.

  2. She either is lying or a useful idiot - i know folks who supported our capabilities, what she is presenting isnt 100% accurate (maybe for good reason). For instance Aegis is in the hundreds (naval interceptors which were successfully testing in 08 on satellites not onshore ones she references, nor does she include 'allied' locations) and other next gen tech that isnt for anyone to know about. Also, she didnt get into 12th directorate their role in maintaining Russian capabilities let alone that WE FUND them. Nor does she touch on Russia's lack of TLC for many of their ICBMs as ours have insane lifecycle management. Also she diddnt discuss the math problem that is intercept by phase of ICBM - multiple of warheads in separation vs missile leaving silo as that matters when intercepting.
