    Just to switch gears (not that getting breech loaded over taxes isn't a fun discussion!), I just saw this and wanted to highlight another excellent pick by Trump! Trump to tap Texas “border czar” to lead U.S. Border Patrol, report says I met Mike Banks when he spoke at a Texas Leadership conference a year or so ago, and was highly impressed with the guy! He's not a politician, knows the border as well as anyone, and has reasonable expectations as to what needs to be done. He is also very unapologetic, during his speech he talked about the border buoys Texas is putting in the Rio Grande. He defended their use, and addressed numerous fallacies about them such as using saw blades in between the buoys. Not long after, I took a week-long trip along the Texas border with a stop at Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, and there was a line of these waiting to be placed in the river. I did the same thing Banks mentioned and ran my bare palm along the ridges of those "blades." I didn't get a scratch. This new administration is moving in the right direction when it comes to defending our sovereignty!

    Agreed. In fact, take this as an "official" Admin warning to KIO!

    Concur. And under the old administration, we had to treat these freaks as "normal!"

    Here's one of my favorite social media sites about flying... Pilot Debrief - YouTube Sure, it's not a podcast (I didn't realize anyone outside of commuters listened to those anymore, but I am outside the targeted demographic so what do I know?); but it's a good standard to measure yourself by (STS). If you're not as articulate and comprehensive as Hoover, I'd give making podcasts a miss and focus on more important things...

    That's how we processed aircraft maintenance information when I first enlisted, a typist (not me) would input the data from the forms onto IBM key punch cards using a machine like this... I had to program the template card which created the data fields, which sat on a spool behind the little window at the middle top of the machine. We'd then take a box stacked full of those IBM cards to be run overnight, and the reports from the data came back on stacks of continuous dot matrix printer paper like CH posted. If we wanted more than one copy, there was carbon paper in between the sheets which had to be removed making a mess! A few years later I took a computer class in college, and the instructor called this "1950s technology." Of course, the USAF was still using it in the early 1980s! Shit, I feel old now... 👴👴

    New Shots Of Ukrainian F-16s Shine Light On Combat Missions Ukrainian Air Force F-16AM Fighting Falcon returning from a combat air patrol, having expended one of its AIM-120C-series AMRAAM missiles. Appears to be the first confirmation that Ukrainian Falcons are sporting the more advanced and longer-ranged C-series AMRAAMS. A Ukrainian F-16 pilot wearing JHMCS. Plus a video of a Ukrainian F-16 sporting a full loadout of US-supplied GBU-39 SDB glide bombs...

    Another reason to love Trump! Cardi B blames Trump for ruining her shoes at the Super Bowl, demands he bring back her deported uncle How this thing actually believes anyone gives a shit what it thinks (a stretch of the term) or says is beyond me! Instead of bringing back her illegal uncle, let's send her to wherever he was sent! The quicker we rid US society of this self-entitled scum such as this, the better!

    Yeah, leave 9.6 million beneficiaries suddenly without medical coverage. How could that go wrong?!? 🫢 Yes, Tricare needs restructuring and revising; but killing it is not an option.

    Thoughts? Jensen's military duty assignments included 26th Special Tactics Squadron commander and deputy commander of the 724th Special Tactics Group, among others. Trump Nominates Air Force Veteran to Oversee Special Operations Forces President Donald Trump tapped Michael Jensen, an Air Force veteran with experience in special operations forces, to take a high-level Pentagon job as assistant secretary of defense for special operations and low-intensity conflict. His nomination was submitted to the Senate and referred to the Senate Armed Services Committee on Monday, according to a notice posted on Congress.gov. If confirmed, he would be responsible for providing civilian oversight of the U.S. military’s SOF enterprise and exercising “authority, direction, and control of all special operations peculiar issues relating to the organization, training, and equipping of special operations forces,” according to a Defense Department description of the job...
