Court martial proceedings are set to begin Tuesday against Air Force Lieutenant Kelly Flinn, the nation's first female B-52 pilot.

Flinn is accused of conducting an adulterous affair with a married man, as well as having a brief fling with a second airman, and then lying about it.

An Air Force prosecutor called her, quote, "A sexual predator."

While her commanding officer called her a, quote, "Lying sex addict."

Meanwhile, President Clinton called her.

Regardless of anyone's feelings about Lindsey Graham, this will still be one of the funniest photos in recent history.

Insane video of Russian anti aircraft gunner losing control of a YakB-12.7 heavy machine gun usually attached to a Mi-24 gunship but repurposed to shoot down drones.

During WWII, I wonder how many soldiers were confused to discover that, unlike their buddies, taking a couple 'pep' pills made them calmer and better able to focus.

I work at a semiconductor fab that creates these

It’s genuinely like magic, we gave a rock the ability to think by inscribing into it billions of runes each on the order of a few dozen atoms using the most complicated manufacturing machines ever created

BREAKING: Graham Platner pulls out of the race, stealthily removes his condom without consent, and re-enters the race

From a pure strategy/theory of war perspective, this process of negotiation-by-airstrike is absolutely fascinating.

In a sense it's the ultimate vindication of Clausewitz, since Clausewitz emphasized the true purpose of war is to cause a change of mind in the enemy rather than achieve tactical or operational goals. Trump is making it more efficient by doing the war and the peace negotiations at the same time rather than one after the other.

I miss John Ekdahl. I feel like he would have had some real banger tweets about the World Cup.

Going forward, every reference to The Bulwark should state, "The Bulwark, who had a columnist who argued Graham Platner should be the Democratic nominee in 2028..."

I’m really uncomfortable with how everyone is posting this to dunk on JV Last. It’s JV Last. He dictates his columns by talking to himself while he wanders the streets looking for food. He yells at stray cats for being nazis. He should be treated with dignity and compassion.

What causes #poverty? Nothing. It's the original state, the default and starting point. The real question is, What causes #prosperity?

Today, on America’s 250th birthday, Susan and I are celebrating by giving $250 each to the first 25 million qualifying American children who sign up for their @InvestAmerica24 @TrumpAccounts.

This makes every child a shareholder in the greatest prosperity-creating engine the world has ever known — American capitalism. Through this public-private partnership, we’re giving the next generation a real stake in our economy and a path to the American Dream: education, a first home, starting a business, and building lasting wealth.

It unites us all in hope and optimism for every child’s future.

Happy 250th Birthday, America! 🇺🇸
