JUST IN: The Navy has released video of a Russian destroyer's unsafe maneuver against the cruiser USS Chancellorsville today in the Philippine Sea. The destroyer got to within 50-100 feet and Chancellorsville had to put its engines at all back full to avoid a collision

This is happening with no other crisis in the hopper; the Russians are doing it because they *can*. Their audience for this is not Trump - whom they know they have cowering - but the rest of the U.S. defense and national security community. https://t.co/uKhwV41Bsg
