Hey Jasmine…
Black pilot here.
I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.
I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.
Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”
That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.
Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.
And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.
They care whether the pilot is qualified.
Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.
And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.
Hi Zack, I'm a British-born Israeli who was stabbed 18 times by a Palestinian terrorist. Another chopped up my friend in front of my eyes. One got out in the hostage deal. They were paid a salary for years by the UK gov.
Could you tweet: "all of this is a horrific crime. He should be held to account."
Thanks
The same people who justify:
Luigi Mangione ass@sinating the CEO of United Healthcare- over the unfortunate drawbacks of the shareholder/profit driven healthcare system in the US.
Are outright condemning:
Inquiry into massive Medicaid fraud in the billions - money that could have went to the real healthcare system.
The latter have literal blood on their hands. The former are in many ways just doing their jobs.
Mamdani victim Thomas Diana is not a fat cat landlord.
He's a construction worker from Queens who toiled hard all his life and planned to retire on the proceeds of a run down 8-unit building that he fixed up himself at night over years.
He always took care of his tenants and now he's being taken for a ride by a 9-year squatter, NYC is treating him like the bad guy. I told his story last week:

Another Life-Saving Breakthrough from Israel.
(I beseech the people that boycott hummus and avocados to add this to their list😁)
Imagine lying on the battlefield or the sports field after a devastating blow to the head — your life slipping away not from the impact itself, but from the invisible bleeding inside your skull that no one can detect in time.
Every year, thousands die this way, waiting for a hospital CT scan that comes too late. The fear, the helplessness, the heartbreaking loss — it’s a nightmare that has haunted soldiers, athletes, and trauma victims for far too long.
Now, Israeli scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science and Sheba Medical Center have delivered a beacon of hope: the NeuroPatch.
This soft, flexible ultrasound patch sticks gently to the temple and works like a guardian angel, continuously sending low-intensity ultrasound waves through the skull. It tracks even the tiniest midline brain shift — as small as 1 millimeter — the deadly warning sign of expanding blood that’s crushing the brain.
Connected wirelessly to a smartphone, its AI instantly analyzes the signals and sounds the alarm the moment danger appears.
No hospital. No waiting. Just real-time detection in the field.
At just $40 and with 6 hours of battery life, this single-use marvel is already being deployed on soldiers and athletes, turning moments of terror into chances for survival.
In emotional validation trials with 340 trauma patients in Israeli emergency rooms, the NeuroPatch achieved an impressive 89% sensitivity and 93% specificity — spotting life-threatening bleeds before CT scans could even begin.
This isn’t just technology. It’s a revolution that brings hope to those facing the scariest injuries imaginable.
Israel continues to show the world what ingenuity and compassion can achieve when lives are on the line.
With all the billions in aid, what have the Palestinians contributed?
The IDF just released footage of Hezbollah rockets hitting the Saint Georges Orthodox Church in southern Lebanon — far away from any Israeli forces.
I look forward to ample condemnations from the Carlson clan and Carrie Prejean Boller
@tfiiiiine@FlorioGina That’s very true. I think all this complaining though is about Gen Z hitting the gym every day but only so that they can film and post it.
@tfiiiiine@FlorioGina The comments are bemoaning a cultural shift in which alcohol toxins are so evil in any dose whereas there are so many other things that came with this shift that are much worse
