Air Force is hiring for civilian T-6 IPs
I might be misunderstanding you…but are you suggesting that this program will make instruction at UPT better by making white jets more selective for AD pilots due to sending less qualified low time CFI’s through some sort of PIT (I’d be willing to bet their syllabus will not be the same as it is right now)?

The ad says they’ll be teaching in all phases of T-6 training…

Track Selects and Assignment Nights
If you stay in long enough, you’ll see what happened years ago (then ended), come back again.

Finally done in Afghanistan?
Well, the root cause for the Taliban falling and a “democratic” Afghanistan taking place was the US invasion and occupation, so it’s not that surprising…

Money and Finance
Yeah, definitely allows us to spend money that has a “tremendously positive return on investment”… “U.S. Spent $384,000 to Study Peruvian Brothels” https://www.realclearpolicy.com/articles/2022/06/02/us_spent_384000_to_study_peruvian_brothels_834482.html?fbclid=IwAR04gSHh7uGawa-weNa4SfZs6T15OoVCYa1OT_3gndNje21WmBRiAD68Vx4

Gun Talk
Never believe a progressive when they say “nobody wants to take your guns away”…because that’s exactly what they want to do.

The Congressman is back yo
Looks like Adam is working really hard to get that “token GOP” contributor job on MSNBC, CNN, etc. As he gets closer to that job, he starts changing his stance on “rights”. “Look, I have opposed a ban, you know, fairly recently. I think I’m open to a ban now. It’s going to depend on what it looks like because there’s a lot of nuances on what constitutes, you know, certain things,” Kinzinger told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union” when asked if he still opposed “a ban on the kind of assault weapons that were used in the shooting.” But he used to say… https://kinzinger.house.gov/issues/issue/?IssueID=126991 https://www.foxnews.com/media/second-amendment-red-flag-laws-mass-shootings

China & Chinese Shenanigans
So I’m confused…Biden said we’ll use our military to defend Taiwan against China, but right after he made that statement, his staff was quick to make a a “clarification”? So which is it? Biden Says U.S. Will ‘Militarily Defend’ Taiwan against Chinese Invasion https://news.yahoo.com/biden-says-u-militarily-defend-141519941.html

Monkeypox - a friendly discussion.
What was your time between the original and the booster?

Monkeypox - a friendly discussion.
Beat me to it…except I was going to make the joke about the booster, and here it turns out to be an actual argument by the “health professionals”. Isn’t the small pox vaccine a one time dose for military members?

The Next President is...
Wait…so you’re saying that Trump has formally announced that he’s running for President in 2024? Can you provide a source to share?
-
The Next President is...
I’m not aware of him saying he’s running or not? Just like Hillary…

The Next President is...
I think the same one that Trump is running for?

There’s a line…and Demonrat crossed it. His recent posts and subsequent replies have been deleted.

Russian Ukraine shenanigans
Yeah…the economy is doing great. I say we spend even more money.

Russian Ukraine shenanigans
“Whatever the number is”…that should tell you that it’s high. I’m much more concerned about our own economic problems threatening us than I am Russia or China. But again, if we’re in NATO, then why do we need a massive defense budget? And if we need a massive defense budget, then why do we need NATO when other counties (Iceland as the easy example) pays next to nothing for defense?
-
Russian Ukraine shenanigans
But they’re in NATO, are they not? I thought being in NATO is what protects these countries?
-
Russian Ukraine shenanigans
$30.5 TRILLION in debt…

Russian Ukraine shenanigans
So why do we need a massive defense budget if we have the alliance to protect us? Iceland spends next to nothing on defense and yet they’re protected by NATO. Sounds like we should go that route if alliances are all they’re cracked up to be.

Russian Ukraine shenanigans
Yeah…$30.5 TRILLION in debt but we shouldn’t put America and her taxpayer’s first. And the left will literally say it’s because the top 10-20% isn’t paying their “fair share”.
-
Russian Ukraine shenanigans
If you’re asking me if I support being in NATO specifically, the answer is a resounding no. An alliance is only worth joining if the American people benefit as much/more than the other members. And if you look at how much we spend on our defense than Iceland (for example), well, there’s your answer. Oh, but I appreciate the “eye roll” from the left lol.

Russian Ukraine shenanigans
I don’t know anything about MAGA…I just know that a government that does not put the interests of its citizens before that of other nations isn’t a government worth funding/supporting. We’ll see how much more painful things need to get here before our citizens start thinking the same thing.
-
Russian Ukraine shenanigans
As they should. Why put the interest of other nations above the interests of your own?
