About this episode
Send us a text Strap in and put your outrage pants on, because this Ones Ready Daily Drop is pure Pentagon chaos. Jared drops a firestorm of updates faster than a drone swarm over Belgorod. NATO wants 5% GDP? Greenland’s back on the menu? Pete Hegseth skips Ukraine for brunch in Brussels? And oh yeah — $38 MILLION for a child development center that could’ve bought an entire gated suburb in Vegas. We hit drone warfare’s brutal reality check, the baffling state of U.S. air defenses, and why letting China buy farmland next to our missile silos is somehow still legal . Spoiler: It shouldn’t be. This episode is fast, furious, and fired up. If you're not yelling at the sky by the end, check your pulse. 🔥 Key Takeaways: NATO wants 5% GDP defense spending. U.S. wants brunch. Greenland is now a missile defense outpost. Let that sink in. Ukraine drone strikes = genius. U.S. defenses = “yikes.” $38M for a military daycare… because gold-plated juice boxes? Operation Spiderweb flipped the script on Russia's bombers. Foreign-owned farmland near military bases — still a thing. WHY?! Space Force is broke, but missile tracking satellites? We got those. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – Daily Drop intro + Operator Training Summit hype 01:10 – NATO spending: Pete Hegseth’s D-Day tour and Ukraine sidestep 02:20 – Greenland joins the Golden Dome defense network 03:00 – Drone drama: Who's actually winning Operation Spiderweb? 04:00 – DOD civilian workforce + border security weirdness 04:30 – Michael Duffy confirmed for Pentagon acquisitions 05:00 – Transgender service member policy under review 05:30 – Gen.
