  1. Not a Jessie Waters fan but this is an excellent summary of the current DNC situation: Party in shambles. Communists are taking over. Election autopsy being covered up. DNC Chair in hiding and soon to be fired. DNC broke and mega-donors (Soros), staying away. Kamala back as the favorite for 2028 and she is OPENLY calling to kill the electoral college, expand the court to 13 and to add PR and DC as states to secure DNC power forever. Other key DNC leaders calling to get rid of the Senate, end the presidency (use an appointed admin), end prisons and defund all police. Old Guard DNC (Carville/Maher), fed up with the uber lunacy of the far left. Ultimate Irony - NYC govt run grocery stores REQUIRE ID (but voting doesn't)...clown show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1pztU_TRso

  3. Indeed....even if they lose qualified immunity the govt steps in to pay. These people settled for $275K...I think the city got lucky.
  4. These clowns shoot the WRONG car...figure out they shot the wrong care and STILL keep the innocent people handcuffed and in custody. I hope they pay millions!
  5. Somewhat and it is expensive and a pain in the arse. When all the AC-130H's retired we tried to get a few places to take one including the museum at Warner Robins. All retired aircraft technically belong to the USAF museum and they are generally ok to work with but the cost is VERY high. We were very shocked when Warner Robins said no thanks. They had been our depot for years...also, ALL of our software was developed and maintained there. A rather large community of civilians, military and contractors petitioned them but they said no de to cost. Even putting the plane in an airpark requires cleaning, painting and commitment to maintain. Look no further than the AC-130H parked at the front gate at Cannon...they have NOT taken care of it. Good luck
  6. His pardon now COMPELS him to tell the truth. Next is contempt and hopefully arrest.
  7. Complete bunk! AFSOC has done a LOT of work on human performance, especially on the STS side of the house. If this was about human performance it would be all inclusive on multiple bio markers/VO2 Max/Muscle strength. This is nothing more the Pistol Pete's fantasy of an all white, all male super race of U.S. soldiers.
  8. The US Govt and DoW have such a great record of doing the right thing... never forcing vaccines or chemicals on soldiers...the government would NEVER do such a thing. Glad I wasn't a soldier at Edgewood Arsenal in the 50's or 60's, unknowingly given LSD and PCP. Or a U.S. soldier in Vietnam swimming in Agent Orange. Or one 60,000 enlisted men enrolled in a once-secret government program — formally declassified in 1993 — to test mustard gas and other chemical agents on American troops. Or one of approximately 235,000 military personnel that participated at one of 230 U. S. atmospheric nuclear weapons tests from 1945 through 1962. What problem is he actually trying to solve? Low testosterone is a legitimate medical issue. It can affect energy, mood, bone density, and overall health. Service members who have medical concerns should absolutely have access to proper evaluation and treatment. But testosterone levels are not a measure of military effectiveness. A fighter pilot does not become more capable because of a number on a blood test. A special operator does not become a better warrior because his testosterone level is higher. Leadership, courage, judgment, discipline, technical skill, and the ability to perform under extreme stress are what define combat effectiveness. This appears less like a readiness initiative and more like a symbolic "macho test" designed to reinforce an image of toughness rather than measure actual performance. Medical data is among the most personal information a service member has. A testosterone number, taken out of context, could become another metric used to unfairly judge, stigmatize, or question the commitment and capability of otherwise outstanding personnel. Will a pilot with low testosterone be viewed differently during a promotion board? Will a commander subconsciously question the fitness of a highly capable officer or enlisted member based on a medical measurement that has little correlation to combat performance? Could this create pressure for unnecessary treatments or encourage a culture where service members feel compelled to alter their bodies to meet an artificial standard of "warrior masculinity"? The armed forces already have proven standards: physical fitness tests, weapons qualifications, evaluations, training events, and operational performance. Those are the metrics that tell us whether someone is ready for combat. The battlefield does not care about testosterone levels. A drone operator, pilot, maintainer, or infantry leader is judged by results — not by a hormone panel.

    I always questioned whether or not they could kill the NFA, but they appear on the brink of doing so. What happens if the next admin is from the DNC...stack the court and re-adjudicate everything? Or do they just do an executive order to take all guns. They already want to disband the Senate...interesting times.
  10. One must ask why Dr. Fauci would invoke the Fifth Amendment if he has already received a pardon. For years, the American people were told to simply trust the experts. Yet serious questions remain about the origins of COVID-19, gain-of-function research, and what government officials knew and when they knew it. Dr. Fauci has faced sustained criticism over his public statements regarding U.S. funding of research involving coronaviruses and whether that research met the definition of gain-of-function. Those questions deserve transparency and honest answers. A pardon does not answer those questions. It does not explain decisions that affected millions of lives, businesses, schools, and families. If there is nothing more to hide, the American people deserve a full accounting of what happened. History should be based on facts, transparency, and accountability—not unanswered questions.

  11. 9 X KC-46....wow.
  12. We just finished a period with a MANDATORY EXPERIMENTAL vaccine...sorry my friend, not a moot point.
