I haven't the slightest idea what they're talking about, but I'm betting that it has nothing to do with stiffening up the USAF.
What I'm wondering is who if anyone bombed the gas line from Russia to Europe. I wouldn't put it past ole let's go Brandon. Not that I think he has the spherical sack to do such a thing, but he is after all a low-grade moron who likely could have been talked into it by some of the simpleton dipwads on his staff.
