Chauly, no I hadn't, Thanks! Too bad it's February, I'd love to go scuba diving off the S. Carolina coast. Maybe in spring after the Navy leaves. |

Feb is good diving. Less algae. The water in socal is cold even in the summer, so you’re wearing 1/4 in anyway. |

https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/19390/pakistani -taliban Good going, Joe*! Ironically I'm on record moments ago advocating turning the Pakistani government into plasma so they can't get a burial and miss Sharia Paradise. But that doesn't mean I want the Taliban to take over. ( Who I'm also in favor of turning to disassociated atoms. ) ( the Pakistani government wouldn't let Indian planes stage through to Turkey with earthquake victim aid... Lovely misogynistic fellows, eh? ) Where'd I put my orbital death ray remote? ( very cranky this morning ) |

"Mr. President, are you confident we can win the war on Fentanyl?" "I've got great confidence, my people are in constant contact with Fentanyl!" |

Joe* may have started an interstellar war. Shooting down UFOs? https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/us-shoots-down-u nknown-high-altitude-object-over-alaska-white-hous e-says/ar-AA17lFc2 I'm very curious what they shot down. I have a list of things it's probably not. "It did not appear to have maneuverability capability, he said. "It was virtually at the whim of the wind." That describes a lot of my glider flights. But never that far out over the Ocean. ( or I wouldn't be here ) But I remember when a sailplane pilot in a self launching Caproni jet sailplane, wave riding in Colorado, had the winds fade, and, already at high altitude, decided to fire up his jet engine and cruise home to Seattle. Sorta "forgot" to call anyone except his wife, to tell her to drive the car and trailer home. Over Montana, iirc, the F-16 sent up to check out the UFO, was unable to raise him on Guard radio, ( pilot was listening to music ) and while trying to fly formation, stalled out and plummeted past the nose of the powered glider. That got noticed, and the pilot contacted air traffic control to report the near collision. Oh, boy, did he get yelled at. I'm guessing it probably wasn't a sailplane they shot down.

Based on Biden* honesty ratings, we are now at war with extraterrestrials. And based on Klan Party past performance, All extraterrestrials. Discrimination isn't their best feature. |

Because when highway construction companies staff a job, they wander through the intended route looking for random residents who may know how to build a road, instead of using the skilled workforce they already employ. https://www.foxnews.com/media/buttigieg-white-cons truction-workers-taking-jobs-communities-color |

https://cnsnews.com/article/international/patrick- goodenough/austin-cites-route-taken-flying-objects -decision-shoot I disagree. Why drug up Joe* just to feed us more lies? I'm mildly curious how many White House minions are actually paid by the CCP, like Joe*, and how many support the CCP on ideological grounds. Also who doesn't, because they are smart enough to know they will lose wealth and status if the CCP switches from low level to overt War. ( I don't assume patriotism as a motive ) I'm more curious who decided to shoot down UFOs? Who decided to go public with explosive political theater? And what zir wanted for PR results? ( I'm assuming the pronoun for sarcasm ) I'm guessing the sudden expenditures of really expensive missiles and bragging about kills on UFOs is for Domestic consumption. I don't think it's impressing anyone besides Party loyalist idiots here, and just providing propaganda for the Enemy. I could be wrong. A Chinese state newspaper in an editorial Monday suggested the objects had been shot down quickly to counter any impression of hesitation or weakness on the part of the administration and Pentagon. “In periods of non-war, it is difficult for people to imagine a superpower repeatedly using advanced fighter jets to shoot down UFOs preemptively,” said Global Times, a Chinese Communist Party mouthpiece. “But against the atmosphere of high tension with China, this absurd and expensive large-scale political behavioral art just took place.” |

Assuming I'm the Evil Overlord, or President... My preference in cases where I shoot (down) scouts, surveillance assets, spies, etc. is to not mention it at all, so the Enemy doesn't get Any information on how far/deep they've penetrated my territory/area of influence/military system. That hides the weak spots and enables ambushing the next probe. In a society with a free press that can be problematic. But with the current Party Media dominance of reporting, pretty easy. However, as a Distraction Operation, the Joe* regime may be pretty smart. I'm going to thus presume a massive screw job in progress, beyond the immigration, crime, medical tyranny, censorship, etc. I already know about. Maybe the Ohio train disaster? |

I'm skeptical on the U.S. sabotage of the pipeline. Not certain it's not true, just skeptical. You'd have to be very reckless to commit an act of war against a nuclear power run by a probable psycho- ( not qualified to pick a particular disorder ) Otoh, Joe* has been wrong on every foreign policy opinion he's ever spoken about. On the gripping hand, looks like Jill is running things. The most probable cause for the Nordstream blowouts is lousy maintenance and stupid orders from Putin. ( pipelines of that kind, really need to have flow and periodic "pigs", cleaning & inspection machines. Just letting them sit & freeze and poorly done restart can blow out a pipe ) But most probable is just that. If it WAS Joe* then waking Europe to the stupidity of Net Zero wasn't his intention. |
