I've never seen anything like this. The number of rappers that are coming out saying "fuck Joe Biden" and that we (meaning black people) need to vote for Trump and how the Democrat party hasn't done anything but hurt us is amazing. If this is true then we're looking at a massive landslide. I just wonder if this "awakening" has come too late.Solomonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05980277484445749796noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098674444128189886.post-67882110334387532342024-03-17T18:00:00.003-05:002024-03-17T18:00:59.534-05:00What is going on in France to have Macron shouting so hard for French soldiers in Ukraine?<p> </p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Macron on quite a roll.

Interesting isn't it. Cutting edge tech seems to be making the "old" version obsolete faster than lingering "legacy" tech. Drones are the hotness but the days of drone operators seem to be numbered. Meanwhile some of the old mundane stuff like the drudgery of airplane maintenance seems to hang on despite the latest advancements. I know they have predictive programs to tell when something will wear out but you get my meaning. We still need people to turn wrenches.Solomonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05980277484445749796noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098674444128189886.post-62526669554989294282024-03-16T20:44:00.004-05:002024-03-16T20:45:11.425-05:00Open Comment Post.

Its one of two things or both. Either the US Army fucked up by putting this guy in charge of West Point and/or future Army leaders are fucked up. Either or both. You decide. My rationale? With all the things that the Commanding Officer of the nation's premier academy has to deal with, for him to decide that THIS is the thing that needs to be changed tells me that he's more concerned with optics than he is with developing the next gen of officers. This alone should see him sent packing.Solomonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05980277484445749796noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098674444128189886.post-48832847851979709062024-03-13T07:07:00.002-05:002024-03-13T07:07:55.385-05:00Force Design 2030 can't make up for China's shipbuilding power...The US Navy and our Pacific strategy is behind the eight ball...<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">First, let’s look at hull count.

Ok. Don't get this. Yeah I'm still harping on the ACV buy. THAT DOES NOT FIT WITH FD2030! Now they're buying a whole batch of upgunned versions? I really don't understand.

Besides the "Holy Shit" the US Army has ships, the other big thing is that they better have Force Protection nailed down for this one. Even worse? I can really see some kind of goofy incident where this thing gets the friendly fire treatment. History might not repeat but it does rhyme. Make no mistake about it. This is for one reason. To keep Hamas in power. Why the current admin would want to do that is beyond me but that's my view. 30 days to get there (kinda fast but ok). How they're gonna fly in the personnel to the actual location to do the work is beyond me...will the Bibi admin allow a corridor? If yes and they're sleeping on Israeli soil then that's a huge red flag to all kinds of terrorists. One of those barracks ships? That would be a target too. I just don't see how you do this in an active war zone.<div><br /></div><div>Of course there is the political angle too.</div><div><br /></div><div>All kinds of crisis hustlers are spoiling to get into Gaza to rebuild it so money will flood in and the Palestinian people won't get their fair share (remember that when all the appeals for money come in), so that means that pockets will be lined in a FORCED ceasefire.</div><div><br /></div><div>Could this be the fig leaf used to get one and save Hamas?</div><div><br /></div><div>Yeah. That sounds right.</div><div><br /></div><div>Build a "relief" port, use the humanitarian thing to save Hamas and line pockets all in one sitting.</div><div><br /></div><div>Diabolical but sounds spot on.</div><div><br /></div><div>But Bibi is in this for his legacy.

I thought this thing would simply roll around the battle space, put itself into position and sit there waiting to fire off its missiles. Nope. A Marine walks beside it with a game controller to direct it? Its everything except being autonomous? This is what we tore up the MAGTF to gain? Its as big as a freaking house but its supposed to be "hidden"? You can see this fucker from orbit!

How this fucker can lie with such a straight face is amazing. Truly senior service in the US govt demands that you either sell your soul or don't have one to begin with. This admin is seriously putting us all in danger. Notice the testimony about all the terror suspects having entered our country is hardly reported on? The talk of a run on our border by Haitians fleeing unrest in their own country? We have the world's most formidable military and we only defend others, not ourselves?
