Today was a huge day. Got my orders, house confirmed on base at Columbus and had my FINI flight! Next stop CAFB!

Worked for him when I was in CYBERCOM. Good dude, mostly good ideas and really cared about the mission and the people. His bad idea(s) were trying to solve a problem he was put in, and the didn't ever take effect. I can't speak on the CSAF, CNO, VCSAF getting fired with a personal anecdote. But Haugh knew his shit, was a cyber "operator" (stop laughing), and cared about his people. This is a massive loss for warfighing in the "new" domain. And if this is because he wouldn't co-sign splitting up NSA and CYBERCOM then whoever replaces him to do that is setting back our capes at minimum a decade, if not more.

True, but when were the smartest men going to change course? They've had multiple administrations to do so (including Trump 1.0). Were they just going to keep talking about it, or actually doing something about it? A few more debt ceiling increases? After another 36T in debt? When our economy collapsed under the weight of our own debt? *Insert bench skeleton waiting meme here.* Also, if tariffs don't work, then other countries should have no problem ending them if we agree to end them as well.

Quite frankly, idk either. But doing what we have been doing clearly wasn't working. So do we just keep doing that? My guess is they hope it will bring people to the table. Big gamble, then again, maybe it pays off big. Time will tell, but I'm not going to cry wolf because the market hits the same level we were in last summer. I say that as someone who isn't all that fond of 47. Maybe just cut it off, that seems to have become popular over the last few years.

Update on your Vietnam tariff discussion: https://www.cnbctv18.com/world/vietnam-wants-to-cut-tariffs-down-to-zero-after-us-reciprocal-tariffs-trump-says-19584921.htm

And now you've got Big Blue letting fighters and heavies record and post on social media their highway ops... The circle is now complete, and there's no such thing as "authorized" morale... Last comment...The Highway Men are highly recommended for drunk music listening when surfing BO.net...

At Laughlin it was a State Trooper that ended the Highway men...he was staking out what he thought was kids drag racing and leaving the tire marks on the road when a T-38 came along and did a touch and go.

Funny how some of the coolest machines ever created by man are still somehow not quite cool enough for the egomaniacs. A few extra degrees of pitch or a few extra knots are indiscernible from the ground, yet have cost so many lives.

Not a “single” story…yet I just went to their website. But I’m sure you’ll have some excuse to somehow say you were correct:
