They're already being told to mobilize. Service members being called up all over the place. Under reported news. Might be a bluff, but I doubt it because it's so fucking stupid, which tracks with this admin.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Trump is taking Putin's approach to Ukraine for his approach to Iran. He's going to force as many soldiers into the meat grinder as possible in hopes that it jams.
Save this comment somewhere: Trump will bring back the draft and expand who falls under it as the war fails harder.
People seem to forget the talks by Republicans under Biden about bringing back the draft. They didn't forget those talks but the American people sure AF did in 2024. Now its just around the corner.
So have several democrats who took AIPAC money
Just as long as it is MAGAt sons and daughters I am sure it will be fine.
They’re all pre-diabetic living on Mt Dew and Burgers. Wearing their MAGA hats talking tough while the kids actually hoping to better themselves with a GI bill get killed.
Deployment of troops on the ground is inevitable. Air space control cannot achieve anything, at some point you need troops on the ground otherwise everything is for nothing.
Doubling the price of Russia's oil, and using up all the patriot missiles is nothing to you?
where's that guy who told me Iran doesn't stand a chance and I'm stupid for saying we lose even if we win
Then let him take the pole position, like any good leader would do!
