The Next President is...

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

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.

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.

Kirk shouldn’t have been shot. It tears at the fabric of the first amendment and the right to express whatever opinions you want. Our country was founded on spirited debate - not McCarthyism and cancel culture, and especially not assassinations. Although I suppose the 1960s would point that this is not entirely unprecedented, unfortunately.

The media is doing its best to divide and cause anger - they’re crushing it. I do wonder how the media is going to spin the fact that the shooter was a white male christian who was raised in a MAGA household and likely taught to shoot by his cop dad. This all comes after multiple false reports that have literally been deleted (see WSJ). Yesterday, many on your all’s side were calling for war. Now, it appears that luckily the civil war may have been postponed due to the shooter not meeting the antifa leftist trans immigrant profile that was originally put out.

Our society is unwell, that’s for sure.
