Blaming Orange poopler for plane crashes is dumb.

Controlled or uncontrolled, it really doesn’t change much. I watch planes land here all the time, and it’s entirely up to the skill of the pilots landing the plane.

This plane is sitting in my back 40 at work haha. Was crashed like 3 times before finally scuttled. Bush pilot life is wild.

just like blaming a DEI hire.

I don't know if you'll be thanking me after you watch it

I have no problem with any content.
If I am not interested I always can pass on it.
But it is nothing to complain about.
Watched it, not surprised a bit.

Of course.

Well sending Captain America would make sense with his war expertise... But he might be too "stars and stripes" and official to do what needs to be done here.... so I'm going either Winter Soldier or The Punisher.

You don't have an issue with companies hiring people based purely on the color of their skin or their sexual orientation vs their actual qualifications?

That being said, the right wing nutjobs blaming EVERYTHING on DEI is just as dumb as people blaming plane crashes on Trump one week after his inauguration. The Toronto crash was 99% pilot error but that most likely had nothing to do with DEI and everything to do with their not being enough qualified pilots in the industry.

Nope

You want what’s best for less than 50% of Americans

The point was that the Republican agenda won’t change even if Trump is gone


JD would likely be appointed since he is VP
I have always preferred Tulsi and Vivek

Try to focus on your own corrupt French Canadian globalist feminist please

Trump got less than 50% of the vote and it’s a bit of a stretch to think that most people vote based on a careful assessment of their best interests

It could be a lot of different things that caused that crash.

It almost looks like wind shear to me. But I don’t know what the weather conditions were. Could’ve been a maintenance issue. Could’ve been pilot error. Could’ve been a bird strike.

A few days ago watched "In the Heat of the Night", 1967 production. What a great movie they made in 60s and 70s. Since I had no ability to watch these movies in time I am trying to fill the gap now. It is day and night how movies were better then and it is not even close.

Harris - 75,017,626 (48.33%)

Trump- 77,301,997 (49.8%)

I said AA wanted what’s best for less than 50% of Americans

That last comment is very insulting

90 million Americans were too lazy or disinterested to vote. IMO, none of them are allowed to female dog about the outcome.

I've said it before, the way I see the division in America is : the country is split into thirds, not halves.

One third are pro-MAGA.
One third are anti-MAGA
One third are (frank)ing apathetic phucktards who will go along with whoever wins as long as their bellies are full.

That's my two cents. Actual worth may vary.

Attacking DEI is just a way to convince people that the only reason that they’re unemployed or underemployed is because one of “them” (fill in any them you hate) was parachuted into a job you should have had. It’s not any different than going on about immigrants stealing your jobs or killing your kids or lynching blacks in the 60’s for looking the wrong way at a white woman.

DEI is much more than hiring practices and when it comes to hiring, it usually means expanding your recruitment processes to bring in candidates that might not normally apply.

Based on the multiple angles of the "arrival" the pilot didn't even attempt to flare. They flew directly into the runway at the approach descent rate causing the right main gear to understandably fail virtually instantaneously on touchdown. Likely there was some windshear, but they should have taken that into account when planning their approach and ref speeds. And if there WAS windshear, they should have at least attempted a go-around.

I'd bet my house that the findings are pilot error.

Trudeau announced a high speed train project and Trump is blaming the Ukrainians for starting the war with Russia.
It’s a mad mad world.

Are you a pilot?

The wife is cooking something new (to us).

It's a "taco casserole" which basically has the same ingredients as tacos, but baked in a glass casserole dish.

It looks like a tray full of monkey puke, but it smells delicious. 😆

Canada: Making sense and actually putting Canada first. Creating jobs and improving vital infrastructure.

USA: Let’s nuke a hurricane.

I bet it tastes fantastic and your wife will have put some shredded cheese on top and baked it to get a nice crust on there that will hide the "Monkey Puke" look.

I don’t see how a pm with a couple of weeks left on the job can make an announcement like that.
