Is this because the Dem convention is later than normal?

I wonder if that, along with the early debate, lends credence to the idea that they want Biden to flame out and then have time to replace him. It would be unprecedented if a Presidential nominee was on the ballot and died or was incapacitated or stepped down between the Convention and Election Day. There is a real chance they would not be able to legally replace him, which would lead to a Constitutional crisis.

Section 3 of the 20th Amendment only applies if the president elect dies or becomes incapacitated before taking office. In that case, the vice president elect becomes president. Anything before an official election sounds like it's fair game. So if the Party decides they don't have any confidence in Joe or Kamala, they could convince them to drop out and have someone like Big Mike Obama take the nomination.

It wouldn't be hard to convince them to drop out either. All they have to do is threaten to have Hunter convicted to get his father to drop out. Kamala's a useless whore so she can get dumped on a street corner.

If you think Kamala is going to willingly leave without at least two pounds of flesh, you have another thing coming. She's given up far too much liver biomass to this adminsitration to just walk away.

Similarly, DOKTOR Jill Biden will NEVER allow Joe to retire. He'll die in office or similarly being whored out to people buying influence long before she lets him off the hook for all those years of cheating on her (by raping women) and molesting kids in front of the fucking camera (and her).

Just about everyone in corporate leadership is a Gen Xer now. It's the cohort over 44 and under 60. What makes Gen X unique is that the worst thing that happened to them was living in the shadow of Boomers. We shit on Boomers a lot, but Vietnam, the chaos of the Sixties, the malaise of the 70s (my dad is still pissed off about what they did to Nixon) and the Cold War were formative for them. For Gen X, it's boo hoo hoo Kurt Cobain was sad and my parents didn't like fags.

LOL Very true.

Nothing happened between 1970 and now. It was all free Bubble Up and Rainbow Stew.

I'm a Gen Xer and I cosign spitting on my generation. In some way we're worse than the Boomers. We knew shit was fucked and that it all was fake, but the majority of us eventually just went with it and cashed out because we could. Honestly, if I wasn't such a goddamn autist I probably would have joined them. Being poor sucks, yo.

We recruit assets from the native population all the time. It's easy to find someone disgruntled with the CCP. The USSR didn't spy on us by teaching Russians perfect English; they spied on us by finding Americans with sympathies to Communism.

If you like to read history on Cold War era or 20th century in general tradecraft its really wild. I like Wilderness of Mirrors and The Black Chamber (predecessor to the NSA and the leader was a truly fascinating psycho).

US CIA was often shocked at the sheer deviousness the KGB was willing to go to. The CIA's main way to ply assets is money which is effective. But the KGB would foster subversives under the auspices of being a faction of the asset's own government. Which takes a lot longer but creates total zealots who don't even know they're in actuality working for the Russians on whatever suicide mission they get sent on.

Now post the real numbers, faggot.

Where did it start? Oh, yeah, less than 15K 155mm HE a month CAPABILITY.

That's just HE.

Doubled? Ooooh, not 30K.

The DoD has admitted they need about about 100-200K HE shells in the 155mm range a month.

Actual question. By the end of the 1970s, field artillery units stationed in Germany were training without ammunition (source: Dad was a captain in the artillery). It sounds like by the end of the 1980s, there was plenty of ammo to go around. How did the situation under Carter and the rebuilding compare to the situation today?

Every generation is going to sell out, putting it in GenX parlance. Generation X is the very definition of “safe edgy” and now have a bad case of collective troll’s remorse. I’m a millennial and we are probably the first nonstarter generation. We let globohomo down and we’ve been cast aside in favor of the zoomers, who they prefer because they’re browner and gayer than us millennials.

No, you’ve been cast aside because the globo does not need to worl on you anymore. All of the gender fuckery and consumming is now directly coming from your gen.

Didn’t this exact thing happen in 1996 when a 747-100 explode in mid air off the coast of Long Island? Can’t say it’s impossible if it’s already happened once, and that was back when Boeing didn’t fuck up aircraft assembly (mostly).

No, that was the Navy fucking up and shooting a civilian airliner. The cope official narrative said it was that but it had very little hard proof and the investigation was a shitshow of lies and cover ups. Such a horrendous fuck up couldn't be allowed after WACO, the OKC Bombing and the massive wave of distrust for Clinton and his admin who was now running for re-election.

Useless because Taylor Swift's plane's registration number is N989TS. 1989 is her birth year and one of her album titles and TS is her initials. No registry is needed to figure out who owns that plane.

Even if she changes her registration number, all it takes is one photo from the paparazzi or a plane spotter and she can be tracked again.

Charter jets are more difficult to track than private jets, but autists can figure out who is on them by looking at flight logs and correlating them with known celebrity movements. The only way to avoid plane tracking is fly commercial, but even in first-class, they'd run the risk of a fan recognizing them, which they hate more than some autists and fans looking at a map.

On the one hand, if I ever decide to commit myself to bankruptcy and finally work up the nerve to buy an airplane to call my own, this would be, okay I guess, I mean, who gives a fuck. Let people redact addresses like they do for the airman registry, but this wasn't ever an issue.

But, on the other hand, because it is a non-issue and only hurts because of 'optics' and is nearly universally hated, it's fucking stupid. It might have been better to just own up to the fact that you prefer being flown around in your own airplane and damn the consequences than be a fucking whiny dumpster cunt about it.

Either that or rent an airplane from a friend or FBO, don't file a flight plan (which means good weather for VFR day or night), and land at one of the numerous tiny airports that are empty most of the time. A friend may not keep a written record, the FBO might, and if you pay cash for fuel, I don't see how your movements would be known at all.

Hell, you could just fly around with your transponder off and it's not absolutely necessary to talk on the radio or even have one if you're in uncontrolled airspace (but it's a good idea if you'd like to know where people are so you don't collide with them). If you stay in class E airspace, under 10,000 feet and away from any airspace that requires a transponder and ADS-B, you'll just show up as a radar target with no identifying tag attached.

I can see why shitlibs and neocons still act like the strong media gatekeeping is there to protect their flaws.

Tucker recently talked about recently how he basically sees a lot conservative media as too liberal at this point. Fox News fires a guy looking to protect Republican voters and then keeps on running puff lie es over how they care about the plight of American Christians.

That's not practical for a celebrity who wants to fly cross-continental trips from major city to major city.
