  1. Sad that the bombing continues. ZH reporting that among the first executive orders will be to "Task the Defense Secretary and joint chiefs to come up with plan to eviscerate ISIS". I''m optimistically reading this as figure out how to bring an end to the bombing. Politically he cannot say stop bombing, he has to say finish the job. If they finish the job and stop the bombing, it would mark a huge change from the past 16 years. (I''m not holding my breath, however.)

  2. Trump is officially the Warmonger in Chief. That didn't take long.
