For the first time since the US created an international group to coordinate military aid to Ukraine three years ago, America's Pentagon chief will not be in attendance when more than 50 other defense leaders meet Wednesday, June 4. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who returned from a national security conference in Singapore on Sunday, will not arrive in Brussels until Wednesday evening, after the Ukraine Defense Contact Group's meeting is over.

It is the latest in a series of steps that the US has taken to distance itself from the Ukraine war effort. And it comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron's warning at the security conference last weekend that the US and others risk a dangerous double standard if their concentration on a potential conflict with China is done at the cost of abandoning Ukraine.

If you're a pro (which I am), you hydrate enough not to get a hangover, despite drinking like a champion.

1 glass of water and ¼ of a banana for every drink is my method.

Jug of pedialyte before passing out, if remembered. Wake up, can of monster or 2 and another jug of pedialyte.

his meaning of pedialyte= another pint of hard liquour.

Assuming a "jug" is 1 liter, and we'll assume we're drinking the 473 ml standard monsters.

Just between the monsters and pedialytes alone we're looking at:

320mg of caffeine (about 3.5 cups of coffee)

~250g sugar (500% daily recommended, roughly equivalent to 63 sugar cubes)

~3660g sodium (~160% daily recommended, roughly equivalent to the sodium in 26 strips of bacon)

Add all the booze that made you drunk in the first place and I'd say you're well on your way to punishing some serious porcelain.
