"Lying bitch"
"OK, you don’t want to engage.”
How do those sound similar in any regard?

What’s with the hate towards Kayleigh McEnany?
Every time when I see her, she seems like a nice woman. Granted, she’s doing a stressful job, but the thought still counts.

It was clear from the audio she did say it. Why not own it, yass queen that shit?
She's good at what she does, very very good. She has humiliated the press over and over, just by being competent. Of course they despise her for that. Also she's a woman (rumor has it, they tell me, so they say), so they hate her even more. Can you see that nasty wench calling some dude a stupid lying bitch?
Yes, putting her photos in the news is going to make her safer, its not just to appease the stupid British audience fapping over islami girl power bs.Afghan girl kills two Taliban militants in fightback

BBC, you've killed this woman. That is if this even happened at all, she may not even exist in Afghanistan, probably not.

She's beautiful, she could do a press conference denouncing my favorite band and I wouldn't be too pissed off.

In Russia, an 18-year-old got sentenced to 5.5 years in a prison camp (no, not suspended - straight up 5.5 actual years in an actual prison camp) for "swearing fealty to ISIS" on vkontakte as a joke when he was 17. A classmate reported him, fully knowing it was a joke. Also, he didn't do anything illegal because the pledge didn't mention ISIS - he praised his nonspecific "homeland", mother, and Islam. He's not Muslim, doesn't belong to a traditionally Muslim ethnicity, and no other Islam-related material was found searching his home and devices.

Jamie Lynn Spears Responds to the #FreeBritney Drama
By Hannah Gold

On Tuesday, Jamie Lynne Spears issued a statement about mental health, apparently in response to the resurgence of the #FreeBritney movement, a campaign organized by some of her big sister Britney’s fans demanding to have the pop star released from her conservatorship.
Britney has been in the care of a court-appointed authority, a “conservator” (currently her care manager, Jodi Montgomery), for over a decade, ostensibly to help manage her mental health. The hashtag movement has persisted, despite Britney commenting on the matter directly (she says “chill”), especially these last few months as fans believe the pop queen is sending them encoded calls for help through social media.
In a recent Instagram post, Jamie Lynn did not comment on the conservatorship directly but wrote about the need for privacy in matters pertaining to mental health. “If you deal with mental illness or care for someone dealing with mental illness, then you know how important it is to respect the situation with privacy for the person,” Spears wrote. She also quoted a Halsey tweet from earlier this week urging people not to joke about Kanye West, whose recent outbursts could be a sign of deteriorating mental health. “Personal opinions about someone aside, a manic episode isn’t a joke,” tweeted Halsey. “It you can’t offer understanding or sympathy, offer your silence.”
Jame Lynn’s comments did not quite end there. One commenter replied to Jamie Lynn’s post, “How about your sisters OBVIOUS mental illness? Why don’t you speak on that?” To which Jamie Lynn responded, “you have no right to assume anything about my sister, and I have NO right to speak about HER health and personal matters. She is a strong, badass, unstoppable woman, and that’s the only thing that is OBVIOUS.”
These comments come nearly a week after Britney’s mother Lynne Spears filed papers requesting to be notified of decisions pertaining to her eldest daughter’s finances. Us Weekly reported on Tuesday that Britney and her father Jamie Spears (who was, until recently, acting as her conservator) will virtually attend a status hearing on the conservatorship this Thursday.
I honestly can't seem to make my mind up about this. On one hand, conservatorship abuse is not completely out of the question and it does happen, on the other, Britney's latest behavior (doing things like burning her own gym and posting weird selfies) doesn't exactly scream of someone who could manage their own finances.

{ This photo, taken from the Air Combat Command Accident Investigation Board report, shows the RQ-4B's recovered fuselage at Grand Forks Air Force Base, N.D.. Air Force photo. }
A leak in a cracked oil line caused an RQ-4’s engine to fail during a ferry flight to the Middle East in June 2018, and because the operations aircrews did not properly plan divert airfields en route, the Global Hawk crashed into the sea near Spain, according to an Air Force investigation.
The RQ-4B, tail number 09-2041, operated by the 348th Reconnaissance Squadron at Grand Forks Air Force Base, N.D., was deploying to U.S. Central Command on June 26, 2018. About 11 hours and 49 minutes into the flight, the aircraft began showing engine fault codes, indicating low oil quantity and low oil pressure. Twenty-six minutes later, the aircraft’s engine shut down and the pilot tried to divert to Naval Station Rota, Spain. The pilot glided on auxiliary power for almost an hour before determining the aircraft could not make it to the airfield and decided to ditch the Global Hawk off the coast, according to an Air Combat Command Accident Investigation Board report released July 7.
The RQ-4 and its sensor system was destroyed, at a cost of $98.83 million. U.S. air and naval assets, along with contracted private submarines, searched for more than a month to recover the aircraft’s engine, fuselage, and other parts, which were strewn across an 11-nautical-mile area of the sea. Once recovered, all components were shipped back to Grand Forks for the investigation.
While the incident occurred in June 2018, Air Combat Command convened the Accident Investigation Board to find the cause of the crash in August 2019. The AIB determined that an oil line in the engine cracked, causing it to quickly leak oil and cause an uncommanded engine shutdown. The pressurized oil line, which feeds the aircraft’s accessory gear box, failed under high cycle fatigue, according to the report.
Additionally, the unit’s approved mission plan did not have sufficient emergency divert airfields, according to the report. Before the crash, the pilot glided toward Rota for almost an hour. The report states that back in 2015, the commander of the 9th Reconnaissance Wing requested 100 percent command, control, and communication (C3) coverage, though that guidance was not followed by the 348th RS in this mishap and Air Combat Command determined that since 2015, similar flights occurred with known and “acceptable gaps” of C3 coverage.
Weeks before a Global Hawk sortie, waypoints that the aircraft will follow need to be coded into the aircraft’s mission plan. The RQ-4 uses these preset locations to automatically fly without direct controls from a pilot.
An RQ-4 mission plan includes “stitched” waypoints, which are preset and automatically followed by the aircraft’s software, and “unstitched” waypoints that can be manually selected by a pilot, such as a divert location. If the mission planning does not add an airfield as an “unstitched” waypoint to be selected, a manual landing would be required; however, “pilots are not taught a manual landing. This is a critical mission planning constraint,” the report states.
In the June 2018 flight, there were three airfields in Portugal that could have been used, but because of administrative issues, had not been added to a list of available airfields.
“All of these three airfields were closer than Naval Station Rota, Spain,” the AIB states. “Any of these airfields could have been utilized by the MP if waypoints had been either stitched or unstitched into the mission plan. Since only Naval Station Rota was coded with waypoints into the mission plan, the MP was limited to either crashing the (RQ-4) into the ocean or try to make the distance to the only divert airfield available.”
Lastly, the AIB states that the RQ-4 community, and specifically the 69th Reconnaissance Group at Grand Forks, had “overconfidence” because of the Global Hawk’s “near flawless performance” over its 295,000 flight hours. At the group, “the operational pressure to meet combatant command requirements overshadowed the inherent risks of repeatedly flying long endurance sorties,” the AIB states.

Well there you have it. A part's failure, and poor mission planning cost us upwards of 300 million dollars.

Good to see nothing has changed since my days in the Navy. (sarcasm)
Operational readiness is all commanders on up want to hear. Don't be telling them you had to cannabilize half the planes in your squadron just to keep the other half "mission ready."
If I read that correctly, that Hawk had 295,000 hours on it? Holy shit! No wonder something broke! That's an incredible amount of hours on any airframe.

George Stephanopoulos’ Wife Says She Watched Porn With Their Teenage Daughters

George Stephanopoulos’ Wife Says She Watched Porn With Their Teenage Daughters
Actress Ali Wentworth, the wife of Good Morning America host and former Bill Clinton White House Communications Director George Stephanopoulos, claims she watched pornography with her teenage daughters in order to teach them about sex.
Wentworth said during an appearance on the Dissenters podcast that the purpose was to show her 15 and 17-year-old daughters that porn stars are actresses who are performing.
“In porn, women have been conditioned to look and act a certain way,” Wentworth explained. “They are performing and it’s dangerous to have boys see this as something women want. You can’t stop them, so I would watch it with them. I would look at the porn with them that one time, like, ‘They’re performing.'”
The 55-year-old added that she also goes through social media posts with her children to offer them another perspective.
“I have an issue with how we are raising this generation of children because we grew up without social media … for us, our children and us as parents are guinea pigs, you know what I mean?” she explained. “I say, ‘Do you see this girl? There is a hole she is trying to fill.’ I use humor to try to converse with them and say things like, ‘Did you drop out of school today. Did you get married today?'”
The Nightcap star, who announced in 2016 that she would leave the country should Donald Trump be elected president, has previously opened up about her own sex life. In her 2018 memoir Go Ask Ali: Half-Baked Advice (and Free Lemonade), Wentworth admitted that she and her husband still regularly have sex.
“The lowest moment for me is when the time arrives for the fateful question: ‘How often do you and your husband have sex?'” Wentworth wrote. “I have lost friends with this question. The women gasp and scream like I’ve confessed that I shot my dog. One of them always slams her first down on the table; a woman’s wine glass once smashed in her hand. I’m sorry! We’re hot for each other. Jesus!”

*more sighing*
Watching porn with your daughters is creepy, but she did do it to banish the idea that doing porn is "feminism" "powerful" and "a sign of self love". She straight up told her girls "See this woman? This woman is trying to fill an unfillable hole in her life (not her vagina)." idk where I stand, because I love she's kicking out that fourth-wave "being degraded is powerful!" shit, and I hate onlyfans thots who say "sex work is real work!!!!!"

No, this airframe had 3,772 flight hours and 208 sorties. The fleet itself accumulated such a large number.
looks like a hardline failure to me, but you can check yourself. They are calling it a HCF, High-Cycle Failure.

Eh, I don't see the problem. The girls are quite old (15 and 17), so while awkward I don't see it as creepy or anything. She basically watched it with them as education. I'll give her a pass as she only did it once. It's not like that creepy guy that tried to claim he watched tentacle porn with his kids.

To understand what’s wrong with our public education system, you have to look at what’s arguably the most powerful force in our schools: White parents
A gaggled of stereotypically goblin-faced New York City jews create podcast series on why white people are to blame for the underachievement of non-whites. (Probably won't mention the overachievement of asians and Nepalese and whatnot.)
There are no supportive comments on their Twitter post. Nice!

kneeling on babies to show you why police brutality against blacks and black people only is real
www.breitbart.com
Clark County is reviewing potential charges against a man who allegedly knelt on a two-year-old child’s neck in an image posted to social media on Tuesday.
Isaiah Jackson was arrested on a probation violation after investigation of a photo posted online, allegedly depicting the 20-year-old Clark County resident kneeling on the neck of a crying toddler — whose hands are held behind his back by an off-screen individual. The image is an apparent mimicry of the alleged killing of George Floyd by former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin, with the caption “Blm now mf.”
Investigators immediately made contact with the mother, her son, and Jackson. “Subsequent interview with the mother revealed that she was unaware of the photo having been taken, or its contents, until she had been informed by other parties,” Clark County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Kristopher Shultz told WHIO.
According to emergency scanner records, “deputies, police, and medics were called to two different addresses Tuesday morning in Clark County as a part of the investigation.” The child was transported to a hospital for evaluation but was found to be uninjured.
Neither the charges nor any further details regarding the identities of those involved have been released, but the investigation has only just begun. “We are looking into this case; however, it is still an active investigation. At this point, we are actively looking into it and we are VERY early on into this investigation,” Major Chris Clark added in an e-mailed statement.
Lt. Shultz said the county prosecutor’s office will “provide a determination of the scope and breadth of the felony charges” Jackson is likely to face.
