  1. Speaking of the polling. I note that Canada's support has felt like it exceeded 65% because of the strong Yookie diaspora in Toronto. What would you say that number is as at JC?
  2. Stable at 65% https://thehill.com/policy/international/3845265-us-support-for-ukraine-reclaiming-territory-stable-at-65-percent-one-year-into-war-gallup/
  3. Let me just say that I appreciated that Milley stood in the breech against Trump and then named names in the Jan 6 hearings. He did not allow Trump to arrest and court-martial retired military officers for criticizing Trump. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GPO-J6-TRANSCRIPT-CTRL0000034620/pdf/GPO-J6-TRANSCRIPT-CTRL0000034620.pdf
  4. You accused Milley of being the most corrupt JCS ever.
  5. I don't think you have this correct.
  6. we ain't so helpless as all that.
  7. Whats interesting is that the US has done some amazing things with parachutes -- not balloons How do you deploy hundreds of standoff ship killers at once from over the horizon against a cocky near-peer competitor who wants to expand into the country that makes the most computer chips and the most bicycles? Go to the 3min mark for the money shot.
  8. I enjoy my visits home because I see a lot of the peculiarities of Detroit. The overly-familiar but insincere coney waitress is one of my favorites. "Waaht kin I getcha, sweetie" rasped through lungs that have more soot in them than a coal miner's.
  9. 60tons per aint no joke
  10. Any more and the airplane crashes.
  11. My strong opinion is that we need to redress whatever confidence building measures (CBM) we have with China and establish non-insulting means of communicating between the powers.
  12. If only the business survived.
  13. I mean, that's totally ingrained in the consciousness. The wife and I whenever we see a piano in a house do the "He can't come out and play, he's practicing the piano" line.
  14. I am happy they are switching the order of the primaries and bumping the Iowa caucus. Always hated NH having that role and we nearly had President Trump again because Iowa Ds be cray.
  15. Good news. The Ukrainians need them.
  16. All variables that do not speak to the efficacy of ground based firearms against 60k ft spy balloon.
  17. I did some rough analysis of the distance a 9mm bullet will travel. Roughly 2000m or 6000ft A rifle bullet say 5.56mm or .223 caliber will go up about 3500m or 10000ft. They come back down of course. The MTG and Paul Goszar pictures of them preparing to shoot down the balloon are laughable.
  18. Probably. If they have elite performance in the B1G tournament they have a shot for the ncaa tournament
  19. woah, I had tuned out on MBB this year...but they might be getting up off the mat.
  20. people are killed by guns fired into the air more often that is reported.
  21. The unseriousness of the MAGAs was when they didn't actually park themselves under the balloon and shoot at it with their Glocks.
  22. That seems beyond risky for them and a bit too mustache-twirly evil even for the CCP.
  23. upon review...the Fretter ads I see on Youtube are not quite as good
