I shared my concerns with a friend of mine following the failed hijack.
I’m not particularly worried about the limited number of flights bound for Israel. ISA & Mossad are now on top of it.
The same can’t be said for flights within the US & Europe.
We may have entered a new era where terrorists don’t have to figure out how to bypass TSA or breach the cockpit - they are now inside the cockpit already.
And it’s not limited to pilots. Since Oct 7, there have been reports of flight attendants wearing keffiyehs or Palestinian flag pins across every major US carriers.
FAs have access to the flight deck, and it doesn’t take much these days for one to figure out how to keep a plane airborne.
It’s not just about Muslims. There could be hundreds, if not thousands of useless idiots with suicidal sympathies in the industry who could be radicalized & manipulated.
That’s the part that concerns me.
In other words, that’s a lot of potential for copycats finding inspiration from the Flydubai incident. And neither the airline & security industries or the public are ready to take on that.
@mtgreenee Before making claims about something you clearly know nothing about maybe do some research. Oxygen masks drop when the cabin experiences a sudden change in pressure not necessarily when it drops altitude.
JD Vance is talking about me lol
I never said, "Shut up if you're pissed off about a $22 burrito." I said, "Burritos don't cost $20 if you know how to cook from home."
I love my people. I love them enough to tell them how much power they actually have, power that perhaps they didn't know they had.
The more empowered we are, the less likely we are to hand over power to an oppressive nanny government.
By the way, there is a way to fix the $20 burrito problem: CUT GOVERNMENT, CUT SPENDING, and CUT REGULATION.
How about we don’t let utilities pass on costs to consumers due to servicing hyperscalers so that the citizens have more resources to invest/save/spend as they see fit?
BREAKING: At the same time that Zohran Mamdani released his counter-antisemitism video, his wife was at a retreat in a Portuguese Castle, calling for the complete ethnic cleansing of Jews.
You literally cannot make this up.
@DainjaRuss33@HT_GunWriter@2AFDN Would the same logic apply to weed? In the sense that we shouldn’t have situations where crossing state border lines would constitute an arrest for something that was legal a few minutes earlier in a different state.
Those are betting market odds – not reality.
I actually live in Texas.
Talarico does have a real chance to beat Paxton, but it’s not 60%.
Dems got excited about Beto, too.
Republicans need to get out and vote.
Yes.
The border is fucking CLOSED
Men are out of women’s sports
The poverty rate is the lowest in history
Murder rate is at the lowest in history
Median income up
H1-bs down
Deportations in the MILLIONS
WHAT THE FUCK WOULD MAKE YOU HAPPY, YOU FUCKING CUNT?
Keep crying into your cock shaped pillow. Did you expect Trump to fix EVERYTHING?
Fuck you!
.@benshapiro makes a plea for the midterms:
Even if you don’t like everything Trump has done, compare it to what the left WILL DO.
“You don’t have to love everything that Trump has done. You don’t even have to agree with most things that Trump has done.
Just understand what’s on the other side of that door…deep and insane radicalism.”
The choice is binary.
Wait, I just learned that Abdul El-Sayed’s physician wife doesn’t accept Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance at her practice.
You genuinely cannot make this stuff up.
Actors are famous because they can act.
Singers because they can sing.
Athletes because they can play.
Comedians because they can make us laugh.
Artists because they can create.
Filmmakers because they can tell stories.
Authors because they can write.
Chefs because they can cook.
Entrepreneurs because they can build.
Doctors earn our trust through years of medical training.
Lawyers study the law.
Economists study economics.
Scientists spend their careers studying their fields.
They all may have opinions about politics.
But why should their opinions carry more weight simply because they’re famous?
You go to a doctor because they’re trained in medicine.
You don’t ask that doctor to fix your transmission just because you trust them with your health.
You trust your mechanic with your car.
You don’t ask your mechanic to diagnose your chest pain.
Being incredible at one thing doesn’t make someone an expert at everything.
A great actor can have a political opinion.
So can a singer. So can an athlete. So can anyone.
But 20 million followers don’t turn an opinion into expertise.
Fame gives someone a bigger microphone.
It doesn’t make what comes through that microphone more informed.
They’re famous for a reason.
Maybe we should remember what that reason is.
UN Secretary-General António Guterres said: “I have never seen killing and destruction like Gaza in all my years as Secretary-General.”
According to even the most critical reports, Guterres, 70,000 people were killed in the war in Gaza, a large proportion of them Hamas terrorists.
During your years as Secretary-General: more than 600,000 people were massacred or starved to death in Ethiopia.
377,000 died in Yemen — that figure appears in reports issued by your own organization.
150,000 were killed in Sudan and 12 million were displaced.
Hundreds of thousands have been buried in Ukraine.
You didn’t see it? They died before your eyes. You simply looked the other way, because the Jews couldn’t be blamed.
