No fuckin' thank you to sending US troops to Ukraine

Biden's best buddy, Vicki Nuland, is retiring. Her send off by the political hack Tony Blinken is rich with irony. "But it’s Toria’s leadership on Ukraine that diplomats and students of foreign policy will study for years to come. Her efforts have been indispensable to confronting Putin’s full-...

Justin Bronk just did another interview where he talks about the difficulties of incorporating F-16s into Ukraine's AF. TL,dw; It will be a longish, hard process but they're needed in order for Ukraine to continue to have air power at all. Thank you. Justin Bronk, PhD, works for RUSI.org He's a pil...

No fuckin' thank you to sending US troops to Ukraine

It doesn't take that long to get a competent pilot trained on F-16. What takes time is building up the maintenance infrastructure; Crews, crew chiefs, a parts pipeline, etc.. Justin Bronk explains a lot of this on Ward Carroll's show. Constellis, the company that bought out Academi, is seeking Logi...

Republicans must be thrilled that we are letting our ally down. Be an even bigger shame if the US had a formal alliance with Ukraine. Here's the official scope of US obligations to Ukraine.

Apparently there are now F16s in Ukraine. 12 combat planes, three trainers.

It's important for the credibility of the US that we follow through on our commitments.

There are people making a very nice side income power washing, installing trailer hitches, sharpening kitchen knives, PDR, installing TV wall mounts, etc. Relatively easy stuff that people won't/can't do themselves.

How do you approach those encounters? Indifference. People who steal your passion and motivation are like boat anchors tied to your ass.

Putting your hands on a homeless dude is just not a good idea. Nutjob may bite, have a weapon, or if you hit him the risk of blood borne pathogens is no joke.
