The Next President is...
I think a snapshot in time...and disappointing in many ways. Electing a communist mayor in NYC...an Attorney General in VA that no only called for KILLING his opponent, but also putting a bullet in the head of his opponents kids...that is the new DNC. I really wonder what will happen in the mid-terms with the DNC slipping so far left they are openly supporting socialism and in some cases communism. Seriously, the new leaders are FAR left lunatics. Nancy just tapped out, Schumer is on the ropes. Who is the leader of the DNC? Is it Jefferies? Pete? Come on... Kamala is talking about another run perhaps linked with AOC ("they" think they will win all 50 states with that combo....ummm yeah). Hating Trump is one thing, but is it enough for the rest of the country to go full retard?

Both sides are cherry picking. My War College Classmate, now retired Col Andrew Milburn wrote his thesis on the subject: BreakIng Ranks Dissent and the Military Professional - The paper was later published in JFQ where Pultizer Prize winning author Tom Ricks (who is a complete douche by the way), picked up on it and wrote a scathing article bashing Milburn. It was obvious Ricks never read the paper as Andy simply laid out a line of thinking around unlawful orders. Bottomline, we all swore an oath to the Constitution, not the President and we should act accordingly. I have only heard reporting on Trump's comments which are obviously Fing stupid but I did hear one report say the left-leaning networks have edited his comment and left out the phrase "if convicted." Obviously that qualifier slightly lowers the stupidity factor, likely not enough to matter. Bottomline, we have free speech in this country (despite the wishes of some with the Ministry of Truth), and Trump should shut his big mac eating, diet coke swizzling pie hole.

Horrific, nothing they could do.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
Even the local Denver News Paper wants Fat Tony canned. A VERY scathing article documenting the downfall of USAFA under his fat thumb. The U.S. Air Force Academy is on the brink of failure, hereโs how to save it (Opinion)

Reasons to despise cops
I have no problem using the PIT in the right circumstance but sometimes you have to wonder what they are thinking. My wife and I like to watch On Patrol Live and sometimes they will PIT with on coming traffic in the way. Chasing a capital murder suspect ok I can see the urgency in that circumstance. PIT a car with oncoming traffic when the dude simply ran from a traffic stop...not so much. There is a very nasty case from Michigan when a state trooper was chasing a 15 year old kid on a four wheeler, he tazed the hit while he was driving causing him to crash into a parked truck, he died. Even more disturbing (and captured in the video attached), the conduct and comments of responding officers. Some covered their body cameras and other turned them off when they started talking about what happened. In this case the officer was eventually charged with murder.
