U.S.' inability to replace rare earths supply from China poses a threat to its defense, warns CSIS

The best part to all this is ....

Let's rely on a county we regularly demonize to supply critical raw materials for the weapons we rely on to threaten everyone

Oopsie, Trump's tariffs based on a fake emergency may have created a real emergency.

Ah, I see our glorious leaders are reaching the "FO" phase of "FAFO".

Oh well, I'm sure Trump can just annex China along with Greenland and Canada. Don't sweat it folks. Right after grocery prices come down, I'm sure.

Good. The US needs to be defanged and declawed, it's gone rabid.

Some European military need to get over to Greenland ASAP

You know what sad? Before all of this we were working with our allies, Canada and Australia to ramp up REE mining and researching advanced processing, know-how we didn't not currently have btw, to reduce the reliance on China.

And then Trump went and fucked all of that up and were up s shit creek without a paddle and shot America's foot and went through the inflatable raft.

Oh no! Anyway...

I suspect that's not the only CSIS reporting on the heavily-armed and unstable Republicans' dramatized worry over their mineral supply drying up.

The SHART of the deal.

What is that thumbnail?

It looks so fake
