Where are all the Trump Thumpers? I'm guessing they've realized just how much an ass the dude really is. Ds have some power, but they're too fuckin retarded to do anything useful with it. As the earth spins, the clown show keeps turning. At least Blobert can move on to her next career. Now, remember, when it comes to me, I hate em all.

Two in a row! Hoping USC beats IU here in two hours so they can still be in the race for the playoffs. Crazy that everyone in the top 25 will be in next year.

The same clown that wants to bribe households with $1500 checks depleting $17B from the state's Economic Stabilization Fund (Rainy Day Fund)! Sure, ignore the crumbling infrastructure that is Texas' highway system. I've had to spend $1600 to replace rims and tires due to road damage in the past six months alone! Hopefully the Senate will stand against this! As for our guns, that's been tried before and didn't go well...

How do you feel about your airframe and mission?
The contrast between deployed hours and home station hours in the posts above is striking. It makes the C-12 question interesting, since a smaller community like that seems harder to learn about from outside.

Oh good, another example of Dems having less financial literacy than my dogs.

Anyone have info about C-12s at Yokota? Interested in it but there doesn't seem to be much out there other than it does DV/AE.

Where did all the new account users that were whining about Trump go? Do any of them want to show their support for these really cool new policies that the side they advocated for now want to put into play?

So it's virtue signaling. They don't have 2/3. Then they get to air ads about how the mean Republicans won't fix the calamity.

Keep Austin weird and Texas stupid. A Texas Democrat just filed a bill to send $1,500 checks to households with no citizenship or legal status requirement. State Senator Roland Gutierrez (D-San Antonio) introduced Senate Bill 297. It would pull $17 billion from the state’s Rainy Day Fund (the Economic Stabilization Fund) for one-time $1,500 payments to households living in Texas as of January 1, 2027. The bill text never mentions U.S. citizenship, legal immigration status, or a Social Security number as a condition of eligibility. Residency can be shown with a lease, a utility bill, school records, or even a sworn declaration. The proposal frames high living costs as a “public calamity,” which is the constitutional workaround Democrats are using to get around the Texas Constitution’s restrictions on giving public money directly to individuals. $17 billion is roughly 60% of the fund’s projected $28.48 billion balance at the end of fiscal 2027. This fulfills a campaign promise from Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa. The bill does not require legal status, so households that include illegal aliens would be eligible under the plain language. It still has to pass the legislature, including a two-thirds vote to tap the Rainy Day Fund.

Amen This is not that hard, we just need a bold leader to stick their neck out and propose an aggressive plan to change this part of our force structure. Really it’s a two part argument, CAF needs a doctrinal change that states given the increase in threats to bases, greater set back and basing flexibility (ACE) necessitates changes in our AR capabilities to support those forces. Larger offloads at greater range, sufficient booms at conventional ranges, some capability to ingress into the furthest ranges of the A2AD bubble, some capability to base adhoc on nonstandard locations for ACE… the MAF could then propose a new AR force.- Strategic tankers
Embraer already has a plant in Melbourne Fl and was exploring plans to make the KC-390 in Jacksonville or Nashville. Believe it or not that airplane is ALREADY U.S. manufacturing compliant because many of the sub-components come from the United States. As an example the engines V2500-E5 are right off the Airbus 320 and are made in Hartford Connecticut with one of the most established logistics lines in the world.Last week

That’s CA/NY level full retard. Importing shitheads + apathy across moderate to conservative voters only leads to things like this. Another big factor is the average voter is willfully ignorant on candidates and policies - they’ll literally believe anything SM, an attack ad, etc. tells them, with zero effort put into actual verification of the information shoved down their throats. Truly heart breaking to watch this happen on a mass scale. We are repeating history like you read about.- WTF? (**NSFW**)
