  1. What part of the GRU do you work for?
  2. Uh, Roger Stone?
  3. The F-22 does the same.
  4. They are in some communities.
  5. I’m a victim of your poor grammar, JFC.
  6. The fly is Pence’s one black friend.
  7. A lot of colleges are waiving GMAT/GRE scores due to the pandemic, FYI.
  8. By skirting the Constitution, you mean “racing the rule book?” Show me a politician that doesn’t do that. It’s foolish to think that a party would “never be out of power.” Hell, Lindsay Graham just stepped over his dick recently by backtracking on this 2016 statement about nominating someone to a SCOTUS vacancy right before an presidential election. But he’s also a retired Guard O-6 JAG, which probably explains his two-face leadership skills.
  9. Is it a treaty? Was he obligated to do so by the Constitution? Here, let’s have a look. ”The Constitution provides that the president "shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur" (Article II, section 2).” Ah, guess that applies to treaties, not accords or agreements. Obama taught Constitutional Law at one of the best law schools in the U.S. (U of Chicago). I bet he knew the difference, just like the reason why the Iran nuke deal was an agreement. Which the irony is since it was an agreement, it allowed Trump to revoke with without the consent of the Senate.
  10. As a former Enlisted guy who got out, went to state school for undergrad, a prestigious private school for my masters, and just applied to a state school for a doctorates program, and have been through a few job interviews post-military, I would say where you go to school does matter somewhat. Your mileage my vary based on the industry you’re trying to go in. If it’s Civil Service or defense contractor (what I’m currently), I’d say it doesn’t matter. The government treats a JD from Yale and a JD from Texas Tech as the same, just check the box. My sister’s a recruiter and has told me that recruiters usually give applicants a pass if they have a “degree mill” school on their resume as long as they have a legitimate school for their other degree e.g USAFA for undergrad, Touro for grad school. At the last two jobs I’ve worked, where I went to college was brought up in the interview due to either the interviewer being alumni at the same college, or they were impressed by me going to a prestigious school in a competitive program. Like nunya said, plenty of legitimate state and private schools offer good graduate programs that are fully online or a hybrid (have to go in-residence for a few days on campus). You’ll have some people here post that they got a great job with their box checking degrees at degree mills and that’s great. But that’s obviously not the norm and just like what we’ve seen with the recent airline industry, especially as of yesterday, life can throw you a curveball and you’re polishing up your resume for something else.
  11. Trump and FLOTUS test positive for COVID-19.
  12. Hopefully it still had the original jump seat in it too, the one that was actually stressed for ditching or crash landing.
  13. Glad everyone lived, kudos to the Herk crew. As someone that refueled aircraft in the air, it's insane to me to think C-130s refuel fighters.
  14. The USAF has one tanker that's 60+ years old, they're retiring their other tanker, and their new tanker is still technically IOT&E. They'll have customers.
  15. I worked in a SOC (Security Operations Center, think of a NOSC with cyber) for a software company but recently was hired as a contractor on a MAF program. I will say cybersecurity, with education and experience in artificial intelligence, is a great sector to be in the new few decades. I'm currently applying for a doctorates program in aviation and space at Oklahoma State and I hope to use my cybersecurity knowledge with advanced persistent threats (APTs) with modern aircraft computing systems.
  16. The VA’s Voc Rehab program paid for my Master in Cybersecurity Risk Management from Georgetown after my G.I. Bill was gone. You have to be out of the military to use that program though.
  17. So, you didn’t? Copy.
  18. Who? There’s a few of them here that do that 😂
  19. By historically democratic, you mean the Democrats of the 1960s, which are really today's GOP? He's apparently the leader of the local "Three Percenters" group, so there lies your answer. David Duke also ran as a Republican during the 1992 Presidential Election. Both parties came out about some dude tying a noose around an effigy of the governor, on the state capitol grounds? Shocking 😂 https://www.lex18.com/news/covering-kentucky/rep-maddox-responds-to-beshear-ky-democratic-party
  20. A lot of people here should probably watch this and do some self-reflection. https://www.netflix.com/title/81254224
  21. Difference in what? The SCOTUS isn't Trump's little henchman protector like the AG apparently is.
  22. Uh, sure 😂 https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/sep/04/youtube-videos/no-kamala-harris-didnt-say-she-wants-riots-continu/
