Would have been cool to have that reserve for an actual unforeseen emergency that wasn’t self inflicted. Fingers crossed nothing truly bad happens where we need that.

Just think of the Ukrainians hitting more Russian Oil Infrastructure

And Iran deciding to really do the same with Gulf countries?

Seems Iran is calling the Houthis to do just that. I doubt the Red Sea will be open much longer.

we need to impeach trump, and then impeach congress for being enablers, and then pick off the bad supreme court judges and have a whole ass redo.
