I’ve never heard of the same type of scenario playing out, not to say it has never happened. That said, I’m not going to be upset about this or take it as a slight against military members, their sacrifice, etc. This tragedy is an extraordinary moment in our history, so it’s not a crazy notion to do things that treat/emphasize it as such.

Commute worthy longer read https://www.twz.com/air/u-s-needs-to-be-building-tens-of-thousands-of-shahed-136-clones-right-now The US needs this but really it’s our allies that need this as they live in the neighborhood Every aggressor should know if they decide to forcibly change borders there are 10s of thousands of these and like systems just waiting to be launched at them

Check yourself bud. I just asking a simple question, don’t make into something it isn’t. Plus your counters are not the same situation. We all know every president, from both parties, has transported their supporters, friends, ect. Thanks for stating the obvious but with through a singular lens. For the sake of non political bullshit, the correct rephrasing could be this: How many times has a civilian’s remains, a.k.a. someone with no official government position or former military service, been transported on military or state aircraft inside CONUS. I get that we’ve recovered people from overseas, it just seems very extraordinary for it to happen here at home. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Those aren't the same. From now on, I expect Vance to transport the remains of the next military member that is killed in action.

GMAFB? Funny you never asked the question the other way... George Clooney: The actor accompanied Biden on Air Force One in June 2024 for a major campaign fundraiser in Los Angeles. Julia Roberts: Roberts also flew with Biden for the star-studded Los Angeles fundraiser in June 2024. Jimmy Kimmel: The late-night host was a guest on Air Force One with Biden and other celebrities for the fundraiser event in Los Angeles. Sean McGarvey: A top union official, McGarvey was one of a group of union workers invited by Biden to tour the aircraft in September 2024

If Vance was on AF-2 the C-17 usually transports his limo’s and Secret Service Detail. Normal ops.

I hope they’re both fired with zero severance pay. Teri has always come off as an unhinged lunatic - zero surprise she’s persona non grata in this case.

Thats my only gripe with all this shit. Talks of viewing in the Capitol (state) as well.

Glad none of my dues will be going to that effort… at least until someone at my company steps on his or her dick.

Delta has 130 million plus Medallion members alone. Say only a minuscule, 10,000, don’t spend $500-1000 a ticket for one year to protest. Well I think Delta will do the math. They will be offered early retirement to move on. Otherwise Pax will, now and then, ask who’s flying….

I saw a C-17 in PHX too.
-
Nah....the union will come rushing to their rescue.

Why’d Kirk get a military honor guard and flown back on AF2? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

From a Delta bro… It’s possible that there might actually be appropriate actions for one’s consequences. What a novel concept.

Curious to know the scope of the "gender identity content" that was being taught. Are we talking about 1-2 slides out of a whole semester? Or did this prof hijack the entire content of this "Children's Literature" course to push a bunch of gender identity nonsense? Both possibilities are obviously troubling, but it seems like it's going to matter, given the fact that the prof in question is screaming "But my academic freedom," while Welsh is citing "Academic responsibility." Searching around, I couldn't find anything specific.

So how many retired guys here have their 'Rank' (Ret.) as their titles at their new job? Absolutely zero chance you would ever catch me referring to my retired military rank. He's the president of a huge university, isn't that enough? I had to go to his speech one time on active duty and walked away thinking "How does everyone not see right through this guy? That was nothing but dumb pandering and anyone that was motivated by that is probably dumb enough that we don't need him."

Trump on Fox and Friends just said they have the suspected shooter in custody. Son of a cop and a social worker....father turned him I after he confessed to him that he did it.

If this ends up being another trans shooter, then I have to disagree. We've tolerated and enabled the delusions of mentally ill people, both trans-identifying and the homeless, for years. Now we are reaping the bitter rewards of this feel-good bullshit. More people will die. You can't tell the most unhinged people in your society that anyone who doesn't participate in their fantasy is trying to "unalive" them. Just like you can't tell them that their democracy is dying, or a literal tyranny is being imposed upon the people. These tragically unstable citizens do not have the ability to detect hyperbole. They are taking the political rhetoric literally, and acting in a purely logical fashion if you accept their initial premise. If anyone on this forum believed that we truly were close to losing our democracy, we all would have a very different relationship with our personal firearms.

Copy, ridicule of cuck-sauruses in the public commons of social media was your intent. No problem with that. Viper I'd say the assassin took the nuclear option here because conservatives have been making progress against liberals the last few years, but I get your point.
-
The suspect in their killing had a list of pro-abortion figures, so yes, it was definitely political. I do not recall a single prominent conservative making excuses for or celebrating their murders.

1. charlie kirk is nationally known. some state senators not so much. 2. his assassination was captured up close in graphic detail. 3. this is clearly a political assassination. i don't even know who killed the hortmans. did they ever publish a motive or find the killer? i honestly don't know. kirk's death is a visual symbol of a direct attack on the first amendment.
