Joe Biden stepping down because his judgment and cognitive ability are impaired, while instantly endorsing Kamala Harris for POTUS tells you everything you need to know about Harris.

Nancy Mace R-SC had the line of the inquiry so far...."Director Cheatle, you are full of SHIT!"

Biden statement overnight. Most presidential I’ve seen him in years. MOV_9019.mov

Who and where is the current president?

Definitely disagree with your refugee policy. I, myself, would like to fully enact Sir Ali G's policy:

Biden has no upcoming public events. His signature does not match any previous signatures. His meeting with Netanyahu has been cancelled while the Israeli PM's plane in the air on the way to DC. It's a little strange. To anyone, especially our enemies, it would appear that there hasn't been a time in recent memory where America has been more vulnerable. If we make it through the next few months relatively unscathed, it will be a miracle... akin to dodging a bullet.

I saw this yesterday, and I wonder why no one is reporting it? Here's the take away from Barack's lengthy message: "But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges." Many people may be assumed he wrote this before Harris was chosen, but it's not. It looks like the candidacy is wide open.

If I was Kamala, this statement isn’t giving me a warm fuzzy https://barackobama.medium.com/my-statement-on-president-bidens-announcement-1eb78b3ba3fc Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app “But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges” 🤷‍♀️

He’s more sick than they’re telling the public. Just a guess based on the previous lies. And are they really going to anoint Kamala without a primary? Voters are the ones who decide these issues in this country. As a republican, I would seriously consider voting for a center leaning democrat who displays sanity in this next election. I’m damn sure not voting for Kamala so I’d be voting again for Trump. I’d like another option but it doesn’t look like we’re going to get it.

Recently had an unexpected, significant surgery. The day I got home my girlfriend's old man (RF-4 guy) pulled out this ancient bottle of weed and said 'looks like you could use some of this.' We took a shot, I was already high as a kite, immediately went to sleep. Good times.

They are trying to erase the Irish from the historic annals of Disney. McGrowl, I think his family came from Galway.

Would love to see him resign in protest. SACEUR has made similar comments about our failure in Ukraine and deterring Russia in smaller groups. Can’t wait till this incompetent affirmative action administration gets dismantled in January.

I'll give you a hint: it starts with s and ends with earch function.

I wonder if they have just accepted defeat this cycle and don’t want to put Newsom or a different candidate that has a legitimate shot in 2028.

It's a valid point.

From dementia to the key holder of the extreme left wing...gotta love Democrats.

I already lost too much $ betting on this one. I thought for sure the Dems were going to stage a shooting at their convention, Jussie Smollet style. It’d be some guy wearing a red MAGA hat, or maybe the buffalo horns guy, but he’d actually take old Joe out.

TAC Air….I missed the call by a few days.

An update concerning MARSRADIO. An unclassified HF communications backup is reserved for active DoD and Federal Agencies. The net is still very active guarding its frequencies for calls. In the first half of this year, there were just under 2000 requests for phone patches, METAR/TAF weather, message, radio, and SELCAL checks. Additionally, there have been a few requests for updated Avian Hazard information. We were excited about the possibility of improvement in our global coverage with the peak of the solar cycle. Unfortunately, there has been a huge number of strong solar storms that reduce coverage. Some requests have been heard from the Western Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East. A REACH aircraft was 5 x 5 sitting on the tarmac in Iraq just the other day. The net can still make CONUS, international and DSN telephone calls. We are attempting to set up remote sites in the western Pacific and Alaska. This is a long and difficult process for a volunteer group with no DoD budget, but it is consistent with the volunteer’s desire to do as much as possible for communications backup. Those interested in using the phone patch service should take the opportunity to register patch information ahead of time. A “phone code” service was initiated for morale calls so personal information would not be disclosed over the air. Phone codes have also been issued for Official patches. Visit hfmars.us for the registration form. Keep your information private. Provide the operator with your phone code. They will enter the code and have their computer form populated with all the required information to make the call including alternate numbers. The net is known for using 13.927 mHz as a calling frequency. Keep 7.6335 mHz in mind for an alternate calling frequency, especially with solar conditions. Some MARSRADIO stations also maintain a guard on 4.457 mHz and 11.407 mHz. No answer on 13? Call on 7 due to the propagation being different. MARSRSADIO can be contacted through marsradioglobal.us/contact. To the active members on here, we hope that you have a safe flight and do not need us. We are there if you do.

I’ll be attending Wed-Fri…totally stoked, been on my bucket list forever!

Make friends with someone with a boat.

I just had a brilliant idea...make a bunch that say things like "FAT", "STUPID", "UGLY", "BAD@JOB", etc and hand them out as appropriate in the name of OPSEC/helping people wear the proper uniform.

@M2 I wish, but no, the OP on the Amn/NCO/SNCO FB page clearly makes a way better / more salient argument than I did. But maybe this poster is a lurker here? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Propagation has been depressing considering we are at the peak of the solar cycle. Maybe next time. There is no beacon to show when the frequency is open. Maybe listen for WWV on 10 and 15 mHz. I doubt there is any propagation into CONUS if you don't hear those. Satphones are fine. We are a backup. A number of our patches are from people who are unable to get their satphones to work. for whatever reason. It helps that we still support Morale calls and requests for scores, etc., especially during games like the Superbowl. It is a thrill for our operators when Air Force One calls in, on a fairly regular basis, to radio check. Thank you for trying and we appreciate all of your dedication and work. We understand being away from family and enjoy being able to do morale calls. Calls to young adults are the best. Hope we can assist you in the future.

Wife: sends me lake cabins "oooh look, I almost think we can afford it" Me: oh hey, a fighter pilot W: wait, what? how could you tell that? Me: amongst other nondescript military memorabilia, a bottle of JW on the shelf W: ...

I’ve heard scuttlebutt that it’ll be Pete Buttigieg which would check so many boxes that it would all but guarantee victory /s.

https://x.com/sentdefender/status/1814467462512914769 Several hours before last night’s Houthi Drone Attack on the City of Tel Aviv in Central Israel; the Commander of U.S. Central Command, General Michael E. Kurilla, who had just wrapped-up a Trip to Israel where he met with Israeli Intelligence and Military Officials, had Penned a Letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin in which he states the Campaign against the Houthis in Yemen has been a clear Failure, due to an Unwillingness by Officials to Commit to the Operation because of Escalation Fears. General Kurilla further stated in the Letter that if this is allowed to continue, American Servicemembers will Die.
