Flynn received his 3rd star, a high level position at the ODNI, and then the directorship of DIA, all under Obama. Flynn’s leadership was erratic and he lost command and control over the Agency, and ultimately relieved of duty.

No... not at all. I liked General Flynn... served on same TFs in IRQ and AFG. 1001 will get you EVERY time though.

IMO, Flynn lost respect from his superiors, peers, and subordinates long before his retirement. Respected when he helped change direction in Iraq and Afghanistan, as part of McChrystal’s staff, not so much when he returned to the flag pole. Failed at DIA, and lost the confidence of his superiors. Relieved from duty.

That fly kicked ass

Matt Gaetz probably has some great ideas

Trump on way to Walter Reed? Should have been there since last night.

OK, totally off topic, but I have a different insight to this. Early in my career, I worked for an agency called NPIC. A retired senior official routinely came back to the flag pole to educate and motivate. His name was Dino Brugioni. He was a navigator or bomb tech during WWII. He spoke of his time on bombing runs over Europe. On those runs, the flight crews would fire up cameras—used later for battle damage assessing—about 10 minutes before target acquisition. He insisted that imagery was the first evidence/detection of the nazi detention camps. I recall him showing us the images of the buildings that were occupied, and not occupied... easily discernible by snow melt and foot traffic. Of note, Dino was directly involved in the identification of the SAM batteries in Cuba in 1962. I haven’t thought of him for years. He was an incredible Patriot. God Speed.

Deep State member! And if you must know, I’m burning through use or lose leave today.

Correct. You should stick with your rants about a governor of a state of which you do not reside, and your creepy obsession for children and adolescent sports. I choose to remain neutral in these discussions, mostly because much of what’s said here is nonsensical and has pushed away those with expertise and helpful opinions, but also because of Hatch Act issues (regarding the political tug-of-war)...something Goon should be more concerned with too.

Perhaps TNT can answer that for you... or yourself, you’re purportedly a medical professional?

Some thought same about warmer weather

Although deadly in quantity, ricin isn’t too extreme. The Russians are using the good stuff, especially on Putin’s opposition. As for former President Obama, he received daily deaths threats and plenty of white powder letters.

“We”?

I don’t see it flipping... outstate will really have to vote out in record numbers. Possible, but odds are against. Will have to see what the October surprise is!

You taking wagers?

Prosecution requested one trial. Defendants requested four separate trials, all change of venue.

Comrade, in fairness, the ad doesn’t specify which troops to support.

Trump ad uses stock photo of Russian MiG-29 planes and actors... oops. Da! https://www.politico.com/news/2020/09/14/trump-ad-asks-people-to-support-the-troops-but-it-uses-a-picture-of-russian-jets-414883

That Mexico festival was a head scratcher, but seriously thought about going. My first Wilco shows were in Denver during the Being There tour. Denver had (has?) three great theaters in the Ogden, Bluebird, and Fox. I recall the Bluebird had a really tight pit area, which was insane at times. Saw them at each, but I remember one of the shows specifically because Tweedy jumped into the pit with my friends and me during the encore set, maybe during their cover of I Wanna Be Sedated or some other. Seems so strange now, considering his stage “shyness“. Geez... almost 25 years ago.

Love me the UT, and fortunate to have seen them in the early 90s before the split. But thinking I like the Soft Boys original better. Dunno. Still great though.

Is it really that amazing how drastic reduction in fossil fuel usage has a direct affect on air quality? I doubt firing up 1,000 coal burning EPPs would have similar results.

I would expand that thought to include the greater 7 county area around Minneapolis and St. Paul, plus Rochester, Duluth, and St. Cloud. Pretty much any city over 10K.

Didn’t mean to hurt your feelings. Just figured you support less guns on the street, which is a good thing, right? Same goes with Goon/Eric, as he supposedly works for a LE organization...perhaps not as an 1811, but nonetheless.

More or less guns in the hands of the public? The NRA is on hold!

Of course you two believe so... wouldn’t expect anything less.
