  1. Difference in what? The SCOTUS isn't Trump's little henchman protector like the AG apparently is.
  2. Uh, sure 😂 https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/sep/04/youtube-videos/no-kamala-harris-didnt-say-she-wants-riots-continu/
  3. Here, this better homie? https://abcnews.go.com/US/gun-rights-advocates-spark-outrage-hanging-effigy-kentucky/story?id=70866370 https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/2020/05/27/kentucky-governor-hanged-effigy-protester-fired-huffman-auto/5265063002/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8353975/Shocking-moment-effigy-Kentucky-Governor-Andy-Beshear-hanged-tree.html 🙄
  4. Kilo, serious questions. Which party, in your opinion, best represents people who do this? https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2020/05/28/us/man-fired-effigy-kentucky-governor-andy-beshear/index.html Which candidate for President do you think he’ll vote for? Do you think that action was justified?
  5. Maybe in the military, but not in the civilian world that I've experienced.

    But they’re okay with two Dutch KDC-10s being sold to a civilian operator?
  7. I think the serious divide began when Gingrich was Speaker and trying to start some “Us vs Them” tribalism partisan showdown between the parties with Clinton e.g. the budget and subsequent shutdown, impeachment, etc.

    The KC-10 Boom Control Unit (BCU) was starting to become almost impossible to replace due to limited supply chain availability. The KC-135 doesn’t have one and also sat SAC alert for decades, which comparatively speaking kept airframe hours low compared to the KC-10. The -135 also has a strategic mission and does AEs. Two things the -10 doesn’t do. With the pressure from the National Guard Bureau to keep the -135 due to a lot of Guard -135 units and cost per flight hour with the -10, it was pretty easy to decide which tanker was going to be retired.
  9. Thank you for your service.
  10. “The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.” — Mitch McConnell, 2016.
  11. What AFSC is he in? The one the Enlisted RPA pilots are?

    What, he can't EO everything to work around Congress? Weird.
  13. Well that fucking backfired, didn't it?
  14. Israel is the mouthy girlfriend who talks shit to dudes cause her huge boyfriend will back up her shit talking, and she knows that.

    Like a Loadmaster is going to work during flight instead of gear up/feet up 😂
  16. Didn’t know we had neurologists on this forum? We already have a ton of political scientists, attorneys, and national security experts.
  17. So like the KC-135 Boom Pod? Copy.
  18. To leverage tech adequately, you have to pay for it. Which the USAF doesn’t have the ability to do well.
  19. Treaties yes, agreements/deals like the now rescinded Iran Nuclear deal, no. Obama knew he’s never get majority approval in the Senate to approve it, hence why it became an agreement/deal.

  21. Can you point out where I wrote that? Don’t worry, I’ll wait. What I actually said before you chimed in to the adult discussion. No method is 100% for certain against fraud. And I literally posted an article from MIT talking about a study that states voting fraud is “"Vote fraud in the United States is exceedingly rare, with mailed ballots and otherwise.”
  22. Wait, is someone saying you can’t vote if you’re legally entitled to vote?
  23. https://www.npr.org/2020/07/01/885074932/n-j-election-fraud-case-draws-a-trump-tweet-but-suggests-safeguards-are-working So a city councilman and cronies got caught and charged in the first time New Jersey did mail-in voting? And? Is the KC-10 an unsafe jet cause one blew up Barksdale decades ago? Or is it a safe jet because the remaining 59, at the time, went on to have a great safety record compared to the KC-135?
  24. https://shass.mit.edu/news/news-2020-pandemic-voting-mail-safe-honest-and-fair-stewart I’ll take those odds. No method is 100% for certain against fraud.
