The trouble will be on days 4-9 when he's tired, cranky, news keeps happening, and he's not surrounded by Saudi gold.

Big in normal times: 18-20 Chinese sources for the CIA have been killed from 2010-2012. https://twitter.com/nytmike/status/865964775137849344 FBI thinks the Chinese have/had a mole in the CIA, the CIA isn't sure. Yikes. quote:But there was no disagreement about the damage. From the final weeks of 2010 through the end of 2012, according to former American officials, the Chinese killed at least a dozen of the C.I.A.’s sources. According to three of the officials, one was shot in front of his colleagues in the courtyard of a government building — a message to others who might have been working for the C.I.A. Wow this is sloppy quote:Those who rejected the mole theory attributed the losses to sloppy American tradecraft at a time when the Chinese were becoming better at monitoring American espionage activities in the country. Some F.B.I. agents became convinced that C.I.A. handlers in Beijing too often traveled the same routes to the same meeting points, which would have helped China’s vast surveillance network identify the spies in its midst. facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 18:10 on May 20, 2017 |

Trump is such a fuckup he's taking Fox News down with him. Their ratings are in a dive because only the craziest of the crazies that are choosing to be willfully ignorant of reality are watching. Their ideological dedication to not portraying anything as negative means everyone else is tuning in to other networks to watch the dumpster fire.

mlmp08 posted:E: Actually, I'm kind of peeved. Didn't change anything != fielding literally every helo with Mode 4 and determining that it required a GO waiver to fly without Mode 4 in combat zones is a pretty big change. It just took literally a decade or more (more like 2+ decades) to field all the upgrades. Maybe big Army learned, but the crews didn't. Or, more likely, the lessons faded over the intervening years. Mode 4 is one of the smallest pieces of the puzzle, frankly. In another venue we can discuss why.

Sure, but bottom line is that the pilots made a supposed VID. Sucks for the AWACS community, but IMO, if pilots want to keep their special "shooter" status, they should've owned those 2 loving missiles they plowed into the blackhawks. But you shoot down one little RAF jet without its IFF, diving at your radar....

I would have guessed higher ratings despite (or because of?) the sexual harassment issue and trumps dumbass, that even the average conservative would be retreating further into the echo chamber because big bad liberal media being bullies.

That's the thing that gets me. Mode 4 shouldn't have even been a factor since those dudes "visually identified" the aircraft. It is impossible to confuse two Blackhawks for two Mi-17s.

Weather Underground's app feed pulls from the NWS in the best layout for an app. That and they provide the easiest access to credible tropical model data if you live on the east or gulf coast. At least until they gently caress it up in 6 months. TWC is the Fox News of weather. Get your weather from the NWS, skip the sensationalism.
