  1. A-7 Corsair II over the USS Ranger (CVA-61), 1968;
  2. Its funny because its true;
  3. https://justthenews.com/accountability/political-ethics/actblue-bombshell-dem-money-platform-tells-congress-it-didnt-block Foreign influence in national elections? Shocked, shocked I am!
  4. https://www.twz.com/air/mysterious-drones-swarmed-langley-afb-for-weeks Now, chances are that NASA was really just looking for an excuse to get some more flight hours in their Canberra (keep in mind that NASA Langley Research Center shares fencing and a golf course with Langley AFB, or should I say Joint Base Langley-Eustis). IIRC the Canberra is kept at Dryden Research Facility.
  5. You spelled "brains" wrong.
  6. Shouldn't expect anything to fit. Multiple players, players acting out of norms, etc. Is anybody tracking the Chinese illegals crossing the border from Baja to California? The LE agency tasked with doing so has been operating under orders to NOT track illegals. And there are apparently amateur wannabees here on work visas along with actual trained operatives with cover identities. The cartels have a whole sub-industry of smuggling dope in, by the ton. And smuggling cash out, by the ton. The PRC supplies the cartels with the ingredients for meth, you think there aren't strings attached? DOD has operated clandestine aircraft over the Contiguous 48, mostly in a careful fashion but not always. The normal Army UAV folks have their TTPs, but the secret squirrels surely don't abide by regulations and standards (ask any 35T you run across). Messy situations usually don't have clean explanations.
  7. https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML1817/ML18172A159.pdf https://www.twz.com/34800/the-night-a-drone-swarm-descended-on-palo-verde-nuclear-power-plant Do y'all really think that DOD is operating large drones near a nuclear power plant?
  8. Assuming Kash Patel gets the directorship, he's gonna need truckloads of Clorox to disinfect that place.
  9. EGR in the early 1970s gasser motors was a train wreck. I can't imagine how this will turn out different. Question. We refer to gasoline-fueled IC engines as gassers. Now that diesels must use urea injection, should they be called pissers?
