Ops Brief 064: Daily Drop - 23 June 2025 (Operation MIDNIGHT HAMMER & China's Buying Our Secrets)

Send us a text Strap in, because this Daily Drop drops bombs—literally. Jared’s back from the San Diego Operator Training Summit and immediately diving into the nuclear circus known as Operation Midnight Hammer—the largest B-2 strike in U.S. history. We’re talking 125+ aircraft, deception ops worthy of Hollywood, and a casual flex on Iran’s nuclear ambitions. But don’t worry, the Pentagon swears it’s not “regime change.” Also in this episode: CENTCOM’s tanker games, shady KC-135 logistics, and a DoD recruiting task force that somehow thinks legal and public affairs are your new talent magnets (spoiler: they’re not). A Marine takes over the F-35 program, we slap “F-47” on our next-gen fighter because Trump said so, and someone in Oregon thinks they can tell the federal government what to do with the National Guard. Oh—and China’s getting military secrets from broke Army NCOs. Cool. Cool cool cool. This one's loaded with hot takes, hard truths, and the usual blend of sarcasm and side-eye from the Ones Ready crew. Buckle up, buttercup. 🔥 Key Takeaways: 🇺🇸 Operation Midnight Hammer: 125+ aircraft, including 7 B-2s dropping bunker busters on Iran. Largest B-2 op ever. 🎭 Deception Game Strong: B-2s faked a trip to the Pacific—classic rope-a-dope move. ☢️ Fordow Facility Hit: Heavy damage confirmed, but Iran probably played musical chairs with their gear ahead of time. 🛢️ Strait of Hormuz Drama: Iran threatens to shut it down—Rubio calls it “economically disastrous.” 🤡 DoD Recruiting Task Force: Featuring public affairs and lawyers. What could possibly go wrong? 🧠 Air Force Readiness Crisis: Old jets, no pilots, and China licking their chops. 🕵️‍♂️ Espionage Alert: An Army NCO tried selling secrets to China. More like “Joint Base Leakcord.” 🚫 Transgender Troop Ban: Back in the headlines. Controversy guaranteed. 🛸 Space Force’s Vibes: From honoring WWII Airmen to blocking housing developments for “mission disruption.” ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – Welcome back & OTS San Diego recap 01:00 – Operation Midnight Hammer: What really happened 02:25 – Fordow nuclear facility gets smoked 03:0 Support the show Join this channel to get access to perks: HERE Buzzsprout Subscription page: HERE Register for our Operator Training Summit: OperatorTrainingSummit.com Collabs: Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code: ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code): ATACLete Danger Close Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADY DFND Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADY Hoist - Promo Code: ONESREADY ...
