Lil Wayne deserved the halftime show in New Orleans. Entire performance was dry. Can’t tell me without SZA and the Drake beef that anyone would be gassing this. Deadass, beyond boring.

Half time show was ass @ kendricklamar

The Democratic Party still doesn’t realize how many Americans they have alienated with their shady, ironically UNDEMOCRATIC tactics.

Against the wishes of their electorate, they stopped Bernie from being the candidate several years ago, then trashed RFK very unfairly and then switched Kamala for Biden without even holding a primary!

Now they are relentlessly trashing @DOGE, which is just trying to stop fraud, waste and abuse of your taxpayer dollars and report back to the public with maximum transparency! It’s messed up.

Preliminary analysis of the crash of flight 5342 today suggests a possible factor might have been the helicopter pilot accidentally looking at AAL3130, a larger plane landing behind 5342, on a different approach but visually close and possibly brighter than the closer, smaller 5342.

I was a Blackhawk helicopter crew chief in the Army.

I was even a Flight Instructor. This means that I trained Crew Chiefs and ensured that they completed all training annually to maintain their flight ratings.

One massive responsibility we had was to be the eyes for the pilots. We handled airspace obstacle avoidance and communicated potential risks to the pilots.

Quite often we would train as a flight of 2 or 3 birds flying in formation.

It was my job to have my head out the window and tell the pilots that the aircraft behind us was "staggered right at 3 discs". (We measured close distances in terms of the diameter of our rotor discs).

I can tell you after doing this for hundreds of hours, even when you know EXACTLY where a Blackhawk is, and you have night vision goggles on, it is EXTREMELY hard to SEE the aircraft.

These birds are designed to be hard to see at night.

The red and green lights on the side get lost in the lights of the city below. The only "lights" on top of the aircraft are called "slime lights" because they are a very very very dim green.

Incredibly difficult to see.

If you are above the helicopter, even if it has it flood light or spot light (2 different lights) on, underneath it, it is still hard to see the bird because all of that illumination is below the airframe.

Another thing people should know is just how busy things can get on the aircraft.

Pilots are talking to each other about what they are observing on the instrument panels. This means neither are looking outside the aircraft.

The crew chief might be conducting a fuel check, where we would also be looking up into the cockpit at the fuel gages and the clock.

This CAN lead to moments where all 3 people on the aircraft are all looking inside the aircraft.

It's not supposed to happen that way. We are supposed to announce when we are "coming inside" or are "back outside" the aircraft. But that doesn't always happen.

Also, in cities like DC, the radio traffic is constant and can make it hard to filter out what is important for you to listen to.

Checking instruments, doing math, reading checklists, and listening to multiple radios all at the same time is HARD. Mistakes happen.

Anyone out there telling you that they find the aircraft collision to be suspect, have NEVER been in a flight crew and they have ZERO idea what they are talking about.

Ignore them all. Better yet, mock the hell out of them.

999 times out of 1000 aircraft incidents always come down to a series of pilot and crew errors.

Humans are involved. They aren't perfect.

Tonight, my heart and mind is with the families of those involved in this tragic event.

I won't join the chorus of idiots making speculations.

Kamala Harris and the Call Her Daddy chick attempt to come up with any governmental law that controls a man’s body. Both say there isn’t one. Then laugh. The correct answer is, yes, the draft. Which has cost over a million male lives in US history. https://t.co/Q92XeEHn3I

@Brick_Suit The difference between a real fucking leader and a guy checking his watch and falling asleep. Small subtleties that show a lot of character.

[Patrick Bet-David @patrickbetdavid]

BREAKING: Mark Zuckerberg just admitted to working with Biden/Harris admin to censor Americans.

He either admitted to this because:

1. He’s being honorable
2. He’s done with the Dem party
3. He’s getting ahead of a whistleblower

Either way this is a VERY HARD letter to write.

Farmers fighting back against drones. 👊🏼

A farmer was unhappy at a neighbouring farm using drones to fly over his property despite warnings.

This was the end result.
