Which “he” would lose the general? Trump?
Yes. I think the accusations of him re: 1/6 will not separate him from the faithful, but will separate him from the squishy independents who may have voted for him. Plus, a strong strategic argument can be made that we need a younger Trump, and someone who could have 8 years in office. I don’t like voting for a one-and-done. I would, of course, if he was the nominee, but I hope he isn’t.

I guess the nut bag democrats have finally found an issue they are willing to take a stand against that involves one of their own.
They couldn't care less that their shit head governor ordered thousands of seniors to their deaths in nursing homes.
They are happy to have the elections turned into a banana republic asshole show.
They're fine with antifa and blm scum burning people out of homes and businesses.

BUT

Fredo's big brother squeezed an unwilling breast, that was a bridge too far.

According to reports, the NY legislature is unified on the topic of impeaching  Fredo's senior sibling but unconcerned about murder.

Makes sense. Democrats are stupid to begin with, and this level of hypocrisy is in keeping with their ignorance and corruption.

The Democratic majority in the New York Assembly is preparing to impeach Gov. Andrew Cuomo if he does not resign, a rapid deterioration of their relationship following Tuesday’s devastating allegation that he had sexually harassed 11 women.

That outcome become clear after an emergency meeting of legislators on Tuesday afternoon, hours after state Attorney General Tish James issued a damning report chronicling multiple instances of sexual harassment by the governor.

This has absolutely nothing to do with what breast he touched. He could rape a woman in the middle of Time Square and he wouldn’t be touched in ordinary times. In fact for democrats, it would be a resume enhancer.

Except that now, Cuomo probably had his eye on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and the DCP simply cannot let a straight white male be their designated candidate for 2024. He’s also probably not far enough along on the Marxist scale either.

That’s what these charges are all about. To derail any possible run for president, now or in the future.

Not just kids.
I remember that half wit, aunt peggy declaring that Freedom of Speech means whatever speech the government and courts allow you to have.
Whack job liberals really have not a clue about much of anything.
I do recall that. I also seem to recall that Steingar was of the same belief that government GRANTS rights.

When you don’t believe in God and God-given rights, then you default to lick the boot of whatever government rules over you.

Total bullshit lie.

 Why should anyone trust a government who constantly obfuscates data, makes up policy as they go and relies on quack doctors who have never practiced medicine, and even worse, allows career bureaucrats to make medical decisions.

 The dims are losing the narrative and control, they are in their death throws and desperate.   Fuck 'em.
That’s what I’m sensing too. Their next attempt at populace control is going to end very badly. Americans are done with it.

Lol, that’s different. Known crew member should have privileges.
I guess so. But I was talking to my Warbird mentor up at OSH, retired United Airlines Captain who flew the 727, 737, 757, and 767, as well as the KC-135 in Vietnam and SAC.  He said that since 9/11 TSA took about a dozen of the tiniest little Swiss Army knives that he always keeps in his pocket as a tool.

You can’t let the captain keep a tiny knife that he could use to take over his own airplane.

Madness.

What happened to "Justice or All"? Why does it have to be politically motivated? Why aren't the Dems just as outraged?
Because the jersey they wear means more than right or wrong.

I thought it was kind of weird show. The airshows were not very good, especially the Saturday night show. Kind of a weird vibe, but still good to get back at it.

Here are a few random pics.

Some people can’t seem to follow signs.

I love watching flights in progress. When I was young I never would have dreamed of being able to track a flight in real time on a computer or even a device in my pocket! It’s amazing. My 90 something mother was even more amazed. I used to pull up on the laptop the flight of my sister on her way to visit, and she would sit there and watch it the entire time.

I remember tracking Mark’s flight from Berlin. Comforting somehow to know it was still (allegedly) up in the air over the Atlantic.
I did the Warbird Island arrival today. Soooo much easier than the Fisk Arrival.

Today’s office. North side of 9/27 on B3 looking at the green dot. At one point winds we’re 320@14G21.   Nice job by today’s pilots flying into the show.

The face diaper has become a shaming device for the unvaccinated.

But they’re lying again. When 100% of us are vaccinated do you really think the masks will go away? Hell no, there are new variants that the vaccines aren’t as effective against, we will be told, and anyway, we are becoming like China where they walked around with those damn things long before covid. We will always have seasonal viruses that are mostly survivable (just like covid is mostly survivable) and the sane response is to let them happen so populations gain natural herd immunity. But China, being a fucked up overpopulated slave society, already long ago accepted mouth/nose muzzling as an appropriate response to natural human-pathogen interaction that we and our ancestors otherwise have been handling just fine for six million years.
I don’t think so.  While slightly less than half of the population lives to have Uncle Sugar to take care of them, and loves being “all-in” virtue signaling about this Covid “crisis,” the REST of us are Americans who won’t put up with it any more.

We are the types who gave the government the benefit of the doubt. We went along for a while, driven by uncertainty mostly. We followed Trump’s lead for the most part.

Then we saw how government ABUSED their deemed authority, and created powers for itself which do not exist.

I’m going to use Oshkosh as a laboratory. Except for the grocery store, I’ve seen virtually zero mask wearing, including customers or servers at restaurants. At the show right now these are mostly pilots who don’t like to be told what to do. But I’ll hold judgement to see what it looks like when the general public can come in on Monday. I’m suspecting mask usage will be virtually nil.
