  1. Fine, fine example of that grad school polish you so cherish...
  2. Those "professed values" got kicked in their teeth repeatedly for quite a while. "Conspiracy theory," "trust the science," "Russia, Russia, Russia," etc, etc, etc. I want perp walks, I want court-martials, I want massive deportations. I want consequences so that maybe, just maybe, we can walk this back some. But it won't be rewound. Next time the pendulum swings, the revenge will be against the Right, again.
  3. Nope, no fun. Sadness. But the journey has begun and that train has sailed. I railed here about the left doing these things during Bush's two terms, against the Tea Party in 2010, and all the other things that Chicago Way Obama brought to the modern arena (although our history is replete with similar behavior all the way back to Jefferson, et al). I said that the Left would regret their actions because the eventual reaction would be coming. And it has arrived...
  4. Indeed. Weaponizing the IRS against the Tea Party; the FBI against Trump and his associates - to include lying to a judge to obtain a bogus warrant (and getting a admin wrist slap, not disbarment for the individual), turning the NSC against a sitting President to impeach him over a pretty benign conversation, literally lying about the provenance of Hunter's laptop to skew the election, turning DoD against service members over an experimental COVID vaccine, having the Chairman, JCS, go outside the chain of command, to include potential adversaries, never mind non-chain politicians, etc, etc, et-bloody-cetera does tend to have follow-on effects. Them's the rules now...fight's on.
  5. Maybe, but not today...
  6. Hmmm, a nation acting in its own best interests. Other, smaller nations deciding where to hitch their wagons in their own best interests. Whatever is the world becoming?
  7. Pallets of dollars on the ramp in Iran.
  8. How about AWOL for three days?
  9. From Jan 20, 2021 - Jan 20-2025, 189 pages in this thread while Biden was President, but we still don't know (cough, Obama, cough) who was making decisions. From Jan 20, 2025 - present, 96 pages in this thread. Just shy of 50% of the pages for an entire presidency in 2+ months. Interesting on what some find acceptable.

    Tsunoda up to main Red Bull, Lawson down to the junior team. Really hope Yuki gets it done.
  11. Lost in all the signal noise is the reason for the group chat. Trump directed a whoopin' on Houthis, not just a whack-a-mole on the launchers. Would be really interesting to know the actual BDA. Then there's: https://www.msn.com/en-us/crime/general/top-ms-13-gang-suspect-arrested-in-northern-virginia-doj/ar-AA1BLYCG?ocid=BingNewsSerp https://www.thecentersquare.com/texas/article_625f4088-93b5-4850-a36d-32940244c113.html among just many others wins. So a big kerfuffle over a classified fcuk up (own it, admit it, move on) vs. doing things that the country wanted. LFG!!
  12. Dafuq? I admit I was not looking for the bridge, so that's on me...
  13. Covid lab leak Russia collusion Hunter laptop etc, etc, etc Perhaps there's reason to be skeptical
  14. A. If true, a massive fcuk up. B. Goldberg is a massive never Trumper who has written false stories before (suckers and losers fame) C. Given that, odd that he'd be on such an e-mail chain (never mind that classified being on such a unclass system) D. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-administration-revoking-legal-status-002259448.html So, a potential, but not confirmed, mistaken leak of a classified plan, which can be redone. Which we do all the time, or, 500,000 more illegals getting their 'get outta here' notification. LFG!!

    That's a very cool thing to be able to say without being a Bond villain...

    Last year of the Fat Amy-like cars. The rumors of the eventual return of V10s is most likely too good to be true, but a boy can dream... Could not imagine being barely 18 and driving one of these beasts.
  17. I see the deportation numbers, I see the number of border encounters, then I see posts like those above and I think:
  18. More winning! Along with lowest border encounters in 40 plus years, another self-deportation: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/courtney-love-applies-for-uk-citizenship-says-trump-administration-is-frightening/ar-AA1BeAYo?ocid=BingNewsSerp LFG!
  19. https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/celebrity/rosie-odonnell-moves-to-ireland-amid-trump-presidency-the-personal-is-political/ar-AA1AJm0v?ocid=BingNewsSerp To paraphrase ol' Robbie Frost, "And that's made all the difference..." LFG!
  20. USAF Dr/Col, "You guys suck now, you have sucked, and you will continue to suck!" Big Blue, "BUUURRRRPPPP!" also, good thing our very own AF congresscritter is investigating important, meaningful things...
