The Next President is...
So Biden literally says the border isn’t secure and hasn’t been for the last 10 years…which encompasses 3 years when he was VP and now 3 years as President. And yet he and his fellow progressives only want to make it easier for illegals to come in, oh, and he wants to give them all permanent residency and eventually citizenship. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2024/01/19/president-biden-says-the-southern-border-is-not-secure/72288828007/

WTF? (**NSFW**)
You’re telling me that the vast majority of people at the pro-Palestinian rallies, you know the ones at college campuses in other major cities, are actually right wing Trump fans? I’m talking about the rallies/protests since October…none of your links have anything to do with what I’m referring to.

The Next President is...
I don’t think she ever did have a shot in SC, or much of one in the entire primary period. And I wouldn’t really call it anything “strange”—Trump is basically running as an incumbent when it comes to party politics, and the majority of the GOP agree that it’s his nomination. Now can he win in November?—I’m still going with my 50/50 that I mentioned a few weeks ago. The real question before November is will Biden or Obama be the Dem nominee?

DeSantis is now out. After Haley loses in NH and SC, I imagine she’ll drop out as well.

Russian Ukraine shenanigans
Pretty sure we can have that without being the world’s policeman and massive defense spending every year. And I would argue that we have less liberty and freedom in this country this bigger our government gets (and yes, thar includes defense spending).

Russian Ukraine shenanigans
So weren’t we hearing from the WH and the media 1-2 months ago that if Ukraine didn’t get mass additional funding right away that they wouldn’t be able to defend themselves from Russia?

The new airline thread
So Hawaiian and Alaskan won’t get to merge? Honest question as I’m pretty ignorant on the subject.

Maybe a 2Lt Miss USA?
Don’t be a hot 2Lt and try to be Miss America? Copy—I’ve lived by this code my entire life and will continue to do so.

Maybe a 2Lt Miss USA?
Pretty impressive that’s she already a fighter pilot when she hasn’t even attended pilot training yet… https://www.foxnews.com/media/miss-colorado-becomes-first-u-s-fighter-pilot-compete-miss-america

The new airline thread
In actual airline hiring news, SWA is not opening up their application window this month. They also sent out emails to anyone with a scheduled interview in the future that it’s been canceled and that the applicants will need to reapply when the window opens up (vs just be given an new interview date).

Wasn’t this the no-kidding goal of the DoD?

Commanders are dropping like flies this year
That sounds like a lot of work compared to flying a legacy 13-15 days a month.

Wait until you find out that random people can get AIB reports via google.

Border crisis
And the insanity continues. Good on on Abbot and DeSantis for starting this a couple years ago. Remember when the left (even our resident leftists on here) said this would backfire on the GOP?

Retirement / Separation Considerations
I in that case would ask for a later retirement date after I return from said deployment vs sell back more leave.

So Palestinians are now bigots? Isn’t the left all about giving Palestinians more power/control? Or are all the “Free Palestine” chants only done by right-wing types? For Palestinian women, abortion can mean lies, jail or worse https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKCN0WA1V9/

The WOKE Thread (Merged from WTF?)
“Illegal” is only mentioned once in the entire article…and it’s from a Trump quote. Here is your “mainstream” media.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
Well, to be accurate, he’s an 11S, but I get your point. Slife the knife.

Negative—if I remember correctly from the lead JA from my base several years ago. Anything higher than an LOC in a UIF has to go up.

If you receive anything other than an LOC, you record is reviewed to set one your rank at retirement. I’ve personally known commanders who were fired, given paperwork, and retired with a lesser rank.
