I'm undecided on whether it's better to bar him from office or let him attempt a comeback in 2024 that would potentially be divisive in the GOP. But I'm skeptical that there will be enough GOP defectors to levy any repercussions against the instigators.

Dude apparently had a super hosed up childhood, joined the military, didn't make it there, and then left and fell into the right wing conspiracy pit who took advantage of the poor bastard. You could probably pick out a handful of potential Q Shamans in here if they hadn't discovered Something Awful.

Found the hottest take on Facebook from some kid I met while in the US, that decided to come out as a full Trump supporter just before the election.

Key points he chose to advertise over the past three months:
- systemic racism doesn't exist
- BLM is for-profit
- there is definitely a history of voter fraud in the US
- news networks don't decide elections and it's always been this way
- the allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 election are valid and need to be adjudicated by the courts
*cases get thrown out*
- this wasn't about voter fraud, this was about due process and the allegations of "irregularities" are valid and need to be adjudicated by the courts
*cases get thrown out*
- the election isn't over until the states certify the votes and it's always been this way
*states certify the votes*
- the election isn't over until congress certifies the electoral votes and it's always been this way
*congress certifies votes after an attempted coup*
- BLM protesters are no different from the capitol protesters

And now, this:



I think he's on some kind of a race to the bottom or something.

These sound like the exact same talking points of a former coworker of mine who is in the full batshit crazy Libertarian camp.

Yea I had every chance to fall into the chud pipeline after getting out. Luckily I fell into a decent group of vets (and got back into old hobbies) and managed to avoid it...but it’s scary how easily I could’ve been down that path and one in the crowd in DC.

You all are the decent group of vets, then I met a few more at school in our student vet club :unsmith: I don’t post a whole lot, but I appreciate you all.

So about once a month while working at the USNO we would notice the pilots do like 20 practice landings. Probably just new pilots learning the ropes of the pretty small landing.

If they're flying for HMX-1 none of them are new pilots. They're doing landings like that because they want to ingrain the process of landing on that spot in their minds so they can do it mechanically and know every tiny nuance of landing in that spot so they could do it under any conditions. The E-6B pilots do the same thing when they land. If you watch them on ADS-B they'll do a racetrack pattern of touch-and-gos before finally landing because (to them, at least) gas is cheap, the tires are free, no pilot is ever going to turn down extra hands-on approach experience and free flight hours, and it's probably a good idea when you're flying a literal Doomsday plane to know how to get in and out of a place quickly if the need arises.

quote:

The Russian Navy says that a former commander of the now-decommissioned Sovremenny class destroyer Bespokoynyy conspired with others and stole the ship's two bronze propellers while it was in dry dock being converted into a floating museum. The alleged caper sounds like it was ripped straight from the plot of a comedic Hollywood heist movie, with the thieves reportedly swapping out the pair of screws, each weighing approximately 13 tons, for ones made out of a cheaper metal.

Russian media outlet Interfax reported on Jan. 11, 2021, that Sergei Sharshavykh, head of the military investigation department of the Russian Navy's Baltic Fleet, confirmed that the investigation into the theft was nearly complete. The names of the former commander of the Bespokoynyy, or any of their accomplices, and what kind of jail time or fines they might be facing, were not disclosed. The two propellers are valued at approximately 39 million rubles, or just over $522,513 at the rate of exchange at the time of writing.

Of course I didn’t mean new pilot like just out of flight school.
I’ve got to see them do that landing at least 40-60 times and with all the trees and flagpole so close it’s pretty impressive. Also they do a little dance spinning it around In place before touching down.
Technically anyone with a mil ID could go to the base and observe from the observatory but I wouldn’t go right now with the current climate lol.
