Ummm…I was commenting on her acting skills. Though it sounds like there was a lot of acting done during this scene.

Here’s my issue with Kinzinger: I don’t have a problem if you’re anti-Trump, even if you’re a Republican. I also don’t have a problem if you believe that 6 Jan was an “insurrection to overturn the election” (lamest insurrection ever if it actually was one lol, so I do question your philosophical bias in that case). My issue is that when Pelosi/Dem leaders set up the “bipartisan” 6 Jan committee but then wouldn’t allow the Republican leadership to choose their members, then it was obvious that this was anything but “bipartisan” and all it was ever going to be is just be a witch-hunt against Trump/his supporters in the House, etc. And when Adam then joined their committee, only because the Dems knew he was against Trump, then he joined the witch-hunt/political theater. If he would have then left the Republican Party to be an independent I would have said he followed his conscience, but he didn’t. The question now is this: Does he know he’s being used by Pelosi? If so, then what does he get out of it? Surely Adam can’t actually believe that the committee is anything but political theater?

Where’s the political benefit in that?

Disinformation…or something. ‘Heroic ‘Ghost of Kyiv’ fighter doesn’t actually exist, Ukraine admits’ https://nypost.com/2022/05/01/heroic-ghost-of-kyiv-fighter-doesnt-actually-exist-ukraine-admits/?fbclid=IwAR1WFX2yfl31FdpZW8saXGvWBNcfocMJ70e3hBCH08l5uD7rDGvM_gT2KE8

Iron Eagle wasn’t made with support of the US Air Force…one of the reasons was because the movie is about the stealing an F-16 which the AF didn’t condone. That all being said, the original definitely fell into the realm of an “awesome bad movie” that I used to watch quite a bit on VHS in the late 80s. The 2nd one was much more bad than awesome and I refused to watch other others since I knew it was downhill from there.

Unfortunately little of this is surprising. When you can’t run on your accomplishments, then you vilify the other side as racists, anti-(whatever letters are now being used), extremists, spreaders of “disinformation”, on and on. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Things need to still get much worse in this country for enough people (60-70%) to see that the trajectory we’re on is going to destroy the country financially. But in the meantime, let’s discuss “free” healthcare, “student loan forgiveness”, refusing to enforce immigration laws/border security, massive federal spending bills (yes, to include “defense” spending), reparations for slavery, banning fracking because we need “green energy”, on and on.

My money is on Pete Buttigieg being their nominee in 2024. He’s the only person who makes sense in the eyes of the left.
-
It’s bad. What’s also bad is that he said he’s not concerned about a recession following the news of negative economic growth. The midterms will be very interesting…I think it’s obvious that the GOP will have a good night, the question is how good.
-
And the Dem leader of the Senate says the only way to fight inflation is to “raise” taxes. I’ve been waiting for the start of the economic collapse (2008 style) and it looks like we just might be starting to get there.
-
The left is likewise saying that this will benefit Disney (and in turn hurt the taxpayers). But if this was good for Disney, then why the uproar against it for those who support Disney being against the latest law? Also, if this is better off for Disney, wouldn’t they have lobbied for this change a long time ago? Progressives crack me up…they say children aren’t being groomed, CRT isn’t being taught in schools, etc…and then they’re upset when laws are passed to prevent what the left says isn’t occurring anyway.
-
Government always sucks unless they’re trying to get rid of more government (rarely, but occasionally happens). But I expect a business to make decisions based on ultimately increasing profits…not picking and choosing social issues which will hurt profits. So if both Florida and Disney lose then ultimately Disney loses because the government can raise taxes, give tax breaks to different businesses, etc. Just look at California—their government sucks, they’re losing businesses and people are moving out (they even lost a congressional seat for the first time), and yet they’re still doubling down on their nonsense. But to those who say Disney will move completely out of Florida…I guess it does make for a good laugh.
-
So it looks like Disney is going to lose a lot of money after their “go woke get broke” comments. The question I have is: Did their leadership decide to go all in with leftists talking points, etc because they believe it’s just the right thing to do (regardless of the consequences) or did they really think this would improve their position financially?

What’s one more nail in the coffin?

From the article “Here we are, trapped in the sky with our 8-month-old unmasked baby (you can’t actually mask a baby that young) under the supposition that everyone who can be masked would be masked, and the flight 325 crew has taken our choices away from us,” one Twitter user said. “Very very angry about this.” So apparently, if you give people the choice to wear masks or not, you’re actually “taking away choices” from others. This only makes sense if you’re a progressive.
-
Go read some FB comments concerning the news story on the “mainstream news outlets”…the progressives are upset at the ruling and believes that this will kill people. Oh and they say that the federal judge shouldn’t even be a judge (was “unqualified”), people that won’t wear masks are selfish, blah blah blah. Same nonsense people have been spewing on here for the last 1.5-2 years.
-
Last year the dude literally said if he were a commander he would seeks out and look forward to giving out Art 15s to those members who weren’t wearing a mask but had not had the covid shot (back when that was a thing). Take this as you will…
-
Just curious, is your confusion new or has it always been there regarding a single federal judge’s ability to strike down a federal law/rule? Reason I’m asking is because this has been happening as long as I’ve been following politics and I’m kind of old. As for why did it take this long, who knows. If I had a guess it’s because of the standard bureaucracy of our government, but I’m sure it also has to do with the mood of the country, the timeline of the mandates, etc.
-
The fact that the Biden admin isn’t appealing the judge’s decision to stop the mask mandate means they know they would lose, the masks don’t work, and/or it’s not popular to do so. Sad that it’s taken so long for a majority of the American public to get to this point.
-
the FAs can always wear N95 masks if they’re really worried and believe that masks work. Or they can just refuse to fly.

Big tech doubles down on the nonsense pushed by the left… https://www.foxnews.com/us/apple-iphone-update-pregnant-man-gender-neutral-emoji?cmpid=fb_fbn&fbclid=IwAR0P3K1Hi6pTsdbDY2hNt0eGJKJ1vNhu3MHFsCNSrweyoawhv-EbrtwefD0

It will never be enough, and that’s by design. Telling a certain group of people that they’re not doing well because of racism, bigotry, etc and that one political party/philosophy will solve it equates to votes/power/money…so it can never end/be completed. Similarly, take a look at the NFL. The left is literally saying that the NFL is racist…the NFL.

Saw ‘Nightmare Alley’ on HBO Max last night. Wasn’t sure what it was/what to expect since my better half said she wanted to watch it, but had some good character development and some twists throughout. Worth watching.
-
I’m not exactly sure of their strategy? Maybe Nsplayr can give us an honest opinion? I truly think it’s just that the far left wing of their party (AOC types) are controlling the agenda and message. AOC has literally said the key their success is the party going further left.

What are the odds of us being back in masks on base before November? I give it better than 50/50.
