Two of the historic SR-71 Blackbird hangars that once lined Beale Air Force's Base's main apron are still standing today.
Through the Abraham Accords & expanding normalization, Israel, the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco & Sudan made the courageous decision to pursue long lasting peace in the region. Now they can establish embassies, exchange ambassadors, & cooperate on tourism, trade, healthcare & security.
This is really mis-guided. "Objecting" is a political act. It's provided for by statute. It leads to debate over the bases for the objection. It's not a courtroom -- it's on the floor of a legislative body performing Constitutional duty. //
To rule that procedure out of bounds in advance is itself undemocratic.
Can you name a better way to demonstrate who has the superior delivery service to passerbyers than to have your semi truck towing the competition? We thought not. That is precisely what Fed Ex illustrated with their custom semi truck wrap. In the picture, you see Fe Ex’s trailer carrying two UPS (United Parcel Service) trucks. Perhaps the graphic suggests Fed Ex is bigger and better at delivery? We’ll let you decide. But we’ll tell you this when we want our packages transported we prefer the moving vehicle. So, Fed Ex well played.
Under Georgia law, if the losing party prevails as the plaintiff in an election contest, the remedy is to conduct a new election. Georgia law does not allow for changing the outcome of an election — it only invalidates the results of the prior election.
Today is the 30th day since the Trump campaign followed all the provisions of Georgia law which set forth a clear procedure for Pres. Trump to prove with evidence in a court the claims that invalid votes were cast and counted in Georgia for Joe Biden in sufficient numbers to have determined the outcome of the election. If the Campaign can’t prove with competent evidence that was the case, then he will lose the election contest. But, as of now, that hasn’t happened. In fact, nothing has happened.
The bill A416, obviously meant to deal with the Wuhan virus, allows for the detention of any carrier of a disease (or contacts that person has had) to be detained in a medical facility or “other apporpriate facility or premises designated by the governor.” The governor or his designee can simply have anyone locked up under this if he puts out the order. Talk about troubling and dangerous.
“Well-meaning people say Republicans and Democrats have the same fundamental goals but different ideas and strategies for achieving them. I’ve always regarded this as wishful thinking, but if it were ever true, it no longer is today.
“The two parties, as presently constituted, have distinctly different visions for America based on conflicting worldviews.
“Some will object that all Americans want everyone to be prosperous, safe, free, and to live in harmony, but I’m not sure that’s even true anymore, given the left’s anti-Americanism, its intolerance and authoritarianism, its romance with socialism…
“… its hysterical environmentalism, its preoccupation with identity politics, its radicalism on race and gender, its attempts to erase our borders, its culture of death, its devaluation of the Constitution, its hostility to Second Amendment rights, and much more.”
For those reasons and others, Limbaugh argues that despite feelings of dejection and pessimism, now is not the time for conservatives to give up hope. On the contrary, he suggests there are reasons for optimism among America’s conservatives — principal among them that Donald Trump broke the mold and proved it could be done.
President Trump showed that an outsider actually can win the presidency and advance a constructive agenda against nearly overwhelming resistance. He single-handedly transformed the Republican Party into a far more efficient and effective policy vehicle. His very presence smoked out the radicalism, authoritarianism, corruption, destructiveness, and utter meanness of the left. […]
Trump presented a template for how the Republican Party should and can expand its base, and how it should push its own agenda every bit as aggressively as the Democrats do theirs, without the cheating and lawlessness.
He inspired tens of millions of Americans with his unflagging patriotism, with his defense and promotion of this country and its interests. The enthusiasm at his rallies was no accident, and it will not diminish but rather surely increase.
What will become of ‘Trumpism’?
Limbaugh believes strongly that “Trumpism” will be alive and well in the Republican Party, long after Trump is gone.
“Our side is fired up like never before, and the Republican Party will likely remain the party of Trumpism, even when Trump ceases to lead it. There will not be another Trump — but there doesn’t need to be, as long as the next GOP president largely follows his policy agenda (apart from spending, which we desperately need to rein in), adopts his template for fiercely fighting for that agenda, and continues to expose and proactively fight against the tyranny of leftist media and social media.”
There’s just something about a monstrous machine sitting vacant that excites and enamors us. The following aircraft have been left to rot, unfortunately. But for whatever reason, that makes them even more cool to us. The abandoned aircraft you’re about to see are one-of-a-kind; and totally untouched for decades. Enjoy them all, and wait for the surprise aircraft towards the end. It’s a doozy…
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo wrote on Twitter that in the upcoming days, he would give the complete account of their foreign policy as his New Year Resolution, adding that it could not be found anywhere else.
“America is a force for good—an exceptional nation like none other in history. First country ever to recognize that every human being has God-given rights. Truly a shining city on a hill,” Pompeo wrote.
Pompeo started the series of tweets by stating that now the country is a lot safer than before the current administration took office.
He also criticized the 1619 project—a New York Times narrative that claims that the basis of the United States’ founding was slavery, rather than the Declaration of Independence—as false and an attempt to smear the vision of a noble founding of America.
Starship/Super Heavy is SpaceX’s next-generation super heavy-lift reusable launch vehicle. The first stage, known as Super Heavy, will produce 71.2 MN of thrust, compared to the Saturn V’s 34 MN of thrust. This will make it the most powerful rocket ever made. When it’s operational, Starship will liftoff from either Boca Chica, Texas; Cape Canaveral, Florida; or an offshore launch platform.
Starship is SpaceX’s plan to colonize Mars and dramatically bring down the cost of space travel. With an estimated eventual cost of $2 million per flight, Starship will be one of the cheapest orbital rockets ever, especially on a cost-per-kilogram basis. Starship will be able to carry 100 tonnes to just about anywhere, due to orbital refuelling.
