I prefer that the public not be privy to the specifics of a National threat . Secrecy is always a good strategy.

It was a fucking party balloon. No explanation of why they chose 10 days at all.
Is that an accurate description of the threat? Was there no reason to suspect there was no other threat related to the closed airspace?
Maybe too much caution for your liking.
@Brant_Drake I found your comment that I was âgroomingâ the young student in that other thread to be particularly silly, and frankly expected from a woke leftist in 2026. Itâs right in line with the idea that math is racist, that studying history from a variety of non-Marxist sources is an instrument of white supremacy, and that learning physics, chemistry, and biology is also a tool of the oppressive capitalist class.
Just this week there have been a number of high school students protesting policies they do not fully comprehend, nor do the public educators who encourage and incentivize participating in these emotional outbursts instead of doing their damn job of explaining academic subject matter.
All while our public schools actively cultivate the absurd idea that men can become women, which simply wasnât present at all when I was a pubic school student.
There is an awful lot of grooming going on, but it isnât coming from the increasingly few people who remain in public education who still believe in the âold-fashionedâ idea that if a student knows your political opinions, youâre doing something wrong at your job.

I donât remember the specific context, but I remember in an exchange about graduating college and entering the construction industry a shift in thinking from aggressive victimhood to moving in to another chapter and learning to let things slide for benefit of a bigger picture.
@tlgains how is construction coming along?

It was due to lack of communication between the FAA and Pentagon. Much like the helicopter/airliner crash in DC. Thatâs incompetence. The Pentagon let the CBP use a laser for the first time without telling the FAA. The FAA panicked and pulled the 10 days out of their ass.
Iâm just bitter because I spent the morning getting flights, hotels, rental cars rebooked, and figuring out other ways to get my people there. Then they just said never mind.

To be clear, I voted for Trump three times. I donât regret it at all. Unless he turns out to actually be a pedo.
Out of curiosity, why is that the moral threshold, as opposed to everything else?
I would need you to be specific about what âeverything elseâ means. But I can say without knowing what you mean that fucking kids is the absolute worst thing I can think of, so nothing else will be as bad as that.

When you say you wouldnât regret voting for him, do you mean overall, even if there were things he did you really didnât like?
You are ok with the video depicting the Obamas as apes?
Do you like everything your favorite President has ever done???

I said I DONâT regret voting for him. Not that I wouldnât. There are things that could change my mind. The Obama video was stupid, but Iâm willing to bet he doesnât have the attention span to have actually watched it to the end.
WTF is that???
If there is one thing I want in an elected official it is thatâŠ
WTF is that
This is the sort of disingenuous rhetoric that has led to so many TDS cases. For 10 years now people take stuff he says out of context, treat unsubstantiated rumors from unnamed sources as fact, and pretend that a clip like that was the same thing as burning a cross in Obamaâs yard and not bad social media editing.
They took the clip down, yet all of the easily manipulated TDS sufferers who believe every other stupid media narrative fed to the public for the last 10 years are still acting like Trump is a Democrat Klansmen from 150 years ago.
He governs like a 1990s Democrat, which is somehow transformed into literal fascism by smooth-brained leftists who donât know the first thing about German history.
All while Democrats are finding increasingly ridiculous reasons to oppose voter ID that TDS sufferers somehow still believe are well-intentioned. All while blue states are rigged to the gills and systematically plundered.

Only once it traveled from coast to to coast, mysteriously wandering to like every known nuclear missile site in the upper half of the US.
Good thing they took it doen over the fucking atlantic.
When I was at Newport News it was a no fly zone. Like, Langley- a 10 minute drive by car- was ready at all times to take down any air craft that was in that airspace.
But that wobbling dunce let a chinese reconnaissance balloon scan our entire nuclear arsenal.
And Trump is incompetent?

Biden was the first President to decide not to enforce immigration law, and most TDS sufferers refuse to acknowledge that he even did it. Some even blame Trump for somehow throttling Democrat legislation that purported to âsolveâ the nonexistent border crisis. Even today, after Trump clearly demonstrated that no legislation was needed and that controlling immigration is purely an executive branch function with existing legislation fully empowering the executive.
A current city council member and candidate for state representative actually had a conversation with me on the mayorâs social media page a year ago or so where he claimed that the âinvasionâ was right wing misinformation.
I asked him how Lewiston ended up with 42 languages spoken by nearly 2,000 students requiring translation services if no major changes in immigration policy occurred.
He accused me of having a blood purity complex.
Same guy also bragged about pissing in public to support his idea for public toilets for the street zombies to trash and get high in. He actually thought his âlived experienceâ bolstered the case.

Chinese own about 98k acres of farmland in Maine which is not accurately depicted on that map at all. That map just highlighted the entirety of Penobscot County. They donât own Penobscot County.
They also own around 300 illegal grow houses here that the Mills Administration seems entirely uninterested in doing anything about. Her brother Peter Mills has assisted with transferring some of these properties with his law firm.
