The Next President is...
I posted elsewhere about it. I’m pretty sure he was talking out of his posterior as usual since buying votes is obviously illegal. If we posted every time one of our politicians said something stupid we’d be on here all day every day.

China & Chinese Shenanigans
Not aviation related, but an interesting interview about China transitioning (governance structure) from dynasty to socialism and ultimately to communism. A minuscule number of numbnuts, backed by Russia, “led” millions of people into full retard mode. Then proceeded to kill millions of them (war, starvation, and government purges) during the move to full authoritarian communism.

Things you should listen to drunk while on BO
I didn’t know Dolly, but got to meet her and other Grand Ole Opey stars during the Fall of 1983. I worked summers at Opryland during college and for 1 Fall I was an usher at the Opry. She was tiny (5’ if she was lucky) but had the biggest smile and personality of them all. She would take the time, when she saw us knucklehead ushers, to come over and say hello and thank us. Thoughtful and down to earth. Most of the country stars were down to earth back then (e.g. Stringbean, Grandpa Jones, Roy Clark, Roy Acuff, Barbara Mandrell, Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette, … and of course Dolly). Fun times. The best job I had (even @ $3.75 an hour) other than flying in the AF.

The WOKE Thread (Merged from WTF?)
Maybe not jail, but she should never be free again. Strangled her 3 kids one at a time. Insanity is never an excuse for murder. Tragic and absolutely abhorrent situation.

The Iran thread
Sadly this is so true. Even lame duckers refuse to make the long term correct decision and just compromise for short term approval. And, we as citizens overwhelmingly respond to the shiny and glittery (hollow) instead of the substantive and enduring. Both sides of the aisle give us what we (the masses) demand instead of what would benefit us long term.

Trump's Cabinet
I’m not defending anybody so calm down. I was asking for a specific example where he extended his executive power further than others have. You gave an example of a court action, but many administrations have sued to get thing done or undone. I didn’t like the whole $1.8 billion fund either so chill out. You spun up pretty fast for just being asked for clarification.

Trump's Cabinet
Disgrunt, Can you give examples that weren’t done by Obama or The Auto Pen? Those two used all kinds of executive power, they just had the media, social elites, and their own party backing them with/in complete compliance.

The Iran thread
Iran is a unique lone actor in the world. As outlined by a few high iq intelligence experts; they have 3 dangerous characteristics that most of the other current “bad actors” don’t have. They have 1) an ideologically extremist state leadership in place, they have 2) a decently effective war fighting machine with the ability to wreak havoc in their immediate area, and 3) they have the desire to force their ideology on other nations and people groups. A dangerous trifecta that historically (recently) included nazi Germany. In case disputes of my claim arise … I am fully aware that we could also include the communist and socialist countries of Vietnam, Cambodia, N Korea, Russia/USSR, and China (they all have or had at least portions of all 3 to varying degrees). I don’t think these nations are as dogmatic as the islamists are in their attempts to burn and/or conquer foreign lands. if the leaked agreement points are valid, I’m not too pleased and hoped for much more demand and way less (none) reward or compensation. I’ll reserve full judgement until all the details are fully known (actionable plans and oversight).

Flying Videos Thread Part 2!
holy crap, loop entry at -1500’ and exit at -900’. I would have smacked the dude’s helmet if I’d been in there (after i cleaned my drawers). That beast has pretty impressive maneuverability. ** Biff’s going to sport wood when he sees this.

German Chicks in Dirndls and Beer (NSFW)
Definitely a babe, but I’m not digging the saline/silicone enhancement. Not that babes who look like that care, but I prefer au naturale.
