What’s hosed is Tulsi is on active duty as a Civil Affairs officer down at Fort Bragg. She had an active TS SCI. On the bright side, it makes us PSYOPers having the dude who started the Temple of Set not seem so bad.

It's a shame treason requires us to be at war with an enemy. We'd sweep up so much shitheads.

Also isn't there a way to revoke her poo poo? Like hell I'll call her unit and ask them who I need to call for that. I wouldn't be shocked if they said, "oh god thank you."



Speaking of traitors the US Supreme Court apparently said undated mail in ballots can't be counted in PA.

She's yet another entry in Facey's Law of Lieutenant Colonels - something about that rank tends to turn people into complete loving nutbags, or expose what was already there, but supressed. Also makes me wonder just how much money you can make as a replacement-tier level Fox News B-lister celebrity.

She apparently was in for 14 years and only made Senior Airman (E4), but was only active from 2004-2008. Probably a similar weedout gate exists between Air Force Senior Airman and Staff Sergeant where you just get looked at harder. Then maybe domed in the Capitol.

You’re a rank late. The field grade lobotomy happens at O4. It’s amazing how many people think a year or two of command makes you some sort of military genius. Staff officers all of sudden think they know better and send good ideas to the company commanders that inevitably make their lives worse. LTC is just an extension of that.

This is just what happens when hunting for good OER bullets has good career outcomes. The current officer career track just incentivizes this kind of behavior.

https://apnews.com/article/police-lawsuits-race-and-ethnicity-77e938ed070a74947a83c89d0cf9f426

quote:

Comedians Eric André and Clayton English are challenging a police program at the Atlanta airport they say violates the constitutional rights of airline passengers, particularly Black passengers, through racial profiling and coercive searches just as they are about to board their flights....

..Police records show that from Aug. 30, 2020, to April 30, 2021, there were 402 jet bridge stops, and the passenger’s race was listed for 378 of those stops. Of those 378 passengers, 211, or 56%, were Black, and people of color accounted for 258 total stops, or 68%, the lawsuit says.

Those 402 stops resulted in three reported drug seizures: about 10 grams of drugs from one passenger, 26 grams of “suspected THC gummies” from another, and six prescription pills without a prescription from a third, the lawsuit says. Only the first and third person were charged.

Those 402 stops also yielded more than $1 million in cash and money orders from a total of 25 passengers.
