Danish military just declassified 26 photos of Russian ships with submarine rescue vessel SS-750 over Nordstream 1’s explosion site days prior. Forsvaret bekræfter: Rusland havde specialfartøj nær Nord Streams sprængningspunkt

Imagery obtained by CNN shows a large blimp developed by the Chinese military, spotted for the first time at a remote base in the desert of northwestern China. The images, taken in November 2022 by US satellite imaging company BlackSky, indicating DoD likely knew and was tracking the entire time but decided to allow them to fly over out territory.

Years ago I was a guest of the FSB (former KGB), on a formal senior military exchange and had several official meetings (and an epic lunch meeting which included shots of vodka and cognac), at their headquarters in Moscow. They have what was at the time a classified museum in the headquarters and I was given a private tour. I asked and was allowed to take this picture. In the case is wreckage from Francis Gary Powers U-2, his pressure suit, items he was carrying and a portion of his parachute.

I have several but surprisingly one of the cheapest is my favorite. The Sticky Holster is lightweight and has a no-slip material the allows easy carry against your skin even when gym wearing shorts.

Two! Highly suggest you fit test your hand and carry options before buying. My local indoor range allows you try test shoot a range of options as long as you buy the ammo from them. I have the Shield, the Glock 43 and the Hellcat. I carry the Hellcat mainly because I have large hands and find it fits me better.

Army aviators, ready to leave the military, are told they owe 3 more years instead

Its just as bad on the DNC side, while some dems are criticizing Biden, the rank and file and most especially the donor class is firmly behind Biden. I find it shameful the DNC has already said there will be no DNC primary debates. The Biden strategy is clear for the next 18 months...run another "Weekend at Bernies" campaign keeping Joe in the basement and and away from the microphone as much as possible. Already the fewest press conferences ever for a sitting President, no live debate with any DNC challengers and I bet they are already calculating a way to avoid a debate with Trump should he win the GOP Nom.

0.375 that of Earth - really helps when you run the fuel and return calculations. SpaceX and Musk have a very iterative process that is paying dividends as they outpace the traditional "experts". Amazing to watch their progress.

Checkmate! Send the man his bottle.

Not just a member of his team...his current Secretary of State. I know our liberal friends are "mostly happy" with Biden but the irony of what has happened (disinformation/collusion with foreign governments/crimes), is truly staggering.

We can only hope the flood of corruption is about to break through the dam of obstruction created by this administration, the justice department in particular. An investigator with the IRS is seeking Whistleblower status over claims the investigation of Hunter Biden has been illegally delayed and obstructed. It is ALWAYS the coverup that gets these clowns. Even the left-wing press is reporting the details (you really should watch the video). 1. The FBI investigation of Hunter Biden was complete a YEAR ago. 2. The IRS investigation of Hunter Biden was complete a YEAR ago. 3. There is probable cause to indict Hunter Biden on two misdemeanor counts of Tax Evasion. 4. There is probably cause to indict Hunter Biden on one felony count of Tax Evasion. 5. There is probable cause to indict Hunter Biden on one felony gun charge. The whistleblower asserts the Justice Department has interfered rather than leaving the matter to U.S. Attorney David Weiss as promised by Attorney General Merrick Garland under oath.

In today's installment of "How can Biden F@ck Americans"... Effective May 1st borrowers with a credit score greater than 680 will pay MORE on their loans to subsidize high risk loans. As an example for example, non-dirtbags who pay their monthly bills and live within their means resulting in a higher credit score will pay about $40 per month more on a home loan of $400,000. And just to make the slap to the nutsack even better, homebuyers who save and make down payments of 15% to 20% will get socked with the largest fees. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/apr/18/joe-biden-hike-payments-good-credit-homebuyers-sub/

Then it went BOOM. I think Elon predicted a 50% chance but they were happy it got off the pad. Watched it live and early on it looked like several engines failed. Flop maneuver was successful? Something went wrong at separation and she kept flopping. Overall it seems they hit several milestones and are well on their way. If anyone can do it I think SpaceX is it.

After months of dragging their feet the Treasury Department FINALLY gave the House Oversight Committee access to suspicious activity reports generated by the department on transaction within the Biden family. It has come to light that SIX additional Biden family members were paid many millions of dollars by Chinese and Russian firms.

The EFMP system can be a maddening mess. My son had chronic ear infections which resulted in a slight speech delay. The pediatrician and state of Florida prescribed a year of speech therapy just as I was finishing command. My assignment from NW Florida to National War College was TURNED OFF by the medical system, they invoked the EFMP clause saying they could not confirm my son would receive appropriate speech therapy care in WASHINGTON DC! I tried to inject some common sense into the system for 10 days before my boss who was the Air Warfare Center Commander stepped in. He was like me speechless and went VFR direct to the Surgeon General of the Air Force. The SG called me personally to say it was all worked out and yes there was speech therapy in the Nation's Capital, but also told me "the system is just trying to protect you and your family."

The pendulum swings hard left followed immediately by hard right. For a while O-6's had to volunteer to be considered for command...that resulted in a shortage of "HiPos" seeking command. A Corona discussion followed..."we aren't people volunteering for command? The reason as it turns out, people were freaking tired...I can't imagine why? As is the norm CSAF responded by making all O-6's "all in" whether they like it or not for the next command screening cycle. I don't know what it looks like now but in 2014 they had a SERB for O-6s, two years later they asked O-6's to come back from retirement to fill certain staff roles. Also, as I recall in 2020 or 2021 AFSOC lost almost 60 O-6's, that is a lot of experience walking out the door to escape some caustic leadership. Regardless of what they say your best interest is NOT in Big Blue's crosscheck. You are just another number in the system.
