Sirens: A Bombshell Production

@sirenspod.bsky.social

Sirens, a new podcast from the ladies of Bombshell, dissects the institutions of American power. With their trademark wit and charm, they sound the alarm on technology, governance, and national security issues. (And maybe lure men to their deaths.)

Nuclear weapons, so hot right now (I crack myself up). @heatherwilly.bsky.social stayed to chat on weapons testing, the health of our nuclear deterrent, how she wished the public would engage on nuclear weapons, and House of Dynamite in our new mini sites.libsyn.com/92063/more-o...

With my lukewarm takes on the proposed acquisition changes at DoD. (Mostly good, but expensive and lots of risks for interoperability. Can't wait to see how they move forward with dual-sourcing and licensed production - two things I supported at JPAC.)

In the newest episode, Sirens explores life's certainties: taxes, trade taxes, acquisition reform, and nuclear annihilation. Wait, WHAT? What's the end of direct file have to do with democracy, what's portfolio acquisition, and are we starting nuclear testing? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

Sharing this great episode with all my BlueSky friends (and maybe some enemies who haven’t revealed themselves). Very excited to learn about @vanessawilliamson.bsky.social ‘s book, “The Price of Democracy.”

The Pentagon press corps has taught me so much in my career. @sirenspod.bsky.social extended our chat with @valerieinsinna.bsky.social to explore what makes it different, what DOD owes Americans in terms of transparency and access, and where we go from here. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

Throwback: earlier episode "AI Skills, Appropriations, and Armed Conflict Law" goes into depth on why these strikes are decidedly unlike prior administration's signature strikes (though the very question highlights how poorly those were communicated). podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

Trump announces another strike "just off the Coast of Venezuela" that killed 6 people

Under my Standing Authorities as Commander-in-Chief, this morning, the Secretary of War, ordered a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization (DTO) conducting narcotrafficking in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility — just off the Coast of Venezuela. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was trafficking narcotics, was associated with illicit narcoterrorist networks, and was transiting along a known DTO route. The strike was conducted in International Waters, and six male narcoterrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike. No U.S. Forces were harmed. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!!!!
