Third soldier inside Black Hawk helicopter involved in DC midair collision identified

Sadly she only 20 days worth of flight time under her belt. She should have been practicing out over the desert or over open country side. Probably rushing her thru to make DEI goals be hit, Sadly she killed a bunch of folks.

Speaking of Medical LearJet Crash In Philly. Matt, this was no accident. Same person which hacked the Black Hawk in Wash DC crash now hacked the LearJet in Philly. Other hacks include: > Cargo ship which struck Baltimore bridge > F-35 fighter plane which went missing in South Carolina > F-35 fighter plane which went out of control and pilot had to eject at air base in Alaska few days ago > Mid air collision in Wash DC few days ago

I have no plans to transition yet.

So, you’re saying there’s a chance!

She had 500 hours of flight time. Where do you get 20 days?? It very well could be 160 plus days at 3 hours per mission.
Do you know for a fact she was the main pilot?
If so ... Please cite the source.
If not.... Quit making sh** up about a dead military helicopter pilot.
It's disrespectful as hell.

It's her post military lunacy that is problematic.

I agree on a personal level. Just don't like a Big Brother government telling people what to do with their lives on issues that don't effect anyone but that person and their family.
I do think the government has some grounds for limiting permanent physical alterations prior to age 18.... But the evidence shows that puberty blockers can prolong that decision.
Seems to me that is the logical middle ground. It respects individual rights while allowing for adulthood for major decisions.
The fact that there is zero outcry for stopping breast augmentation under age 18 screams hypocrisy.
Pubs....."No permanent life altering surgery on children!!!!!..... Unless it's for bigger tits."

Horny hypocrites. 🤣

"In 2023, 21,746 breast augmentation procedures were performed on people 17 years of age or younger in the United States. This is about 1% of all breast augmentation procedures performed that year."

Breast augmentation for a minor is messed up as well.

Agree and it sets a bad precedent. The next time there's a terror attack or a mass killing incident will the shooters name be hidden so the family isn't embarrassed or whatever?

We belong to a global economy whether you isolationists like it or not.
1941 was 84 years ago and isolationism ended with WW2.

Much like "insurrection," isolationism is yet another word you bleat without having a clue what it actually means.

Breast augmentation for a minor is messed up as well.

And I agree that chopping off the weiners of minors is ill-advised too.
Never have advocated for that on here despite what the nut jobs perceive of my defense of trans rights.
My only exception is puberty blockers under the care of a doctor with parental consent and a therapist's services.
To me, that respects individual rights as well as health and safety of a suicidal minor.
It also keeps the child from needing trans related surgery on bones/face/voice later if they do decide to transition as an adult.
I also don't believe trans males should be able to compete against natural females in competitive sports. It's an unfair advantage.... especially if they have gone thru puberty before starting their transition.
My views are far from extreme imo.

There are very few breast augmentations for minor females, Period. But half of those cases are to correct deformities. A friends daughter recently is a data point on the list. Her issue was she grew like size H Cup by the time she was 16. So she had surgery to reduce them. So anyone who would question or lump all of those very small number into a false narrative of vanity boob jobs is mentally ill and a pervert. Are there a few, like a fraction of a percent? Yes. I can say that of that fraction of a percent there are exactly NONE being pushed on the 17yo by her High School councilor or her parents.

Fake News.

Trump repeats false claims that children are undergoing transgender surgery during the school day

Trump’s remarks escalated conservatives’ claims that educators are “grooming” or “indoctrinating” children to become gay or transgender.

www.nbcnews.com

If this is such a huge occurrence across America.....Cite at least 5 examples all across America over the last 5 years where a school made a kid transition to the opposite sex...paid for their hormones....arranged doctor visits and helped facilitate surgery.
Good luck. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Facts:

More Teens Get Breast Implants Than Trans Top Surgery

Despite a lack of data, anti-trans proponents often center narratives of regret to dissuade gender-affirming health care.

Where is your outrage?? Pub perverts love big boobs on the teens eh???

How am I wrong?? The Electoral College is not based on One person... One vote, which is a meritocracy based on absolute fairness and gives no one person more say or power than another.
The current Electoral College gives special advantages to voters in smaller, less populated states that are underrepresented.
Kinda like DEI gives special advantages to underrepresented minorities.
Pubs in smaller Red States are no different than minorities seeking DEI advantages in government programs.
Trump is a DEI hire.

It’s the 3/5th compromise. I’m not a historian, but was probably the only way some states would rectify the constitution. It also kept the peace between the north and south for as long as it did.

Trump won the plurality this go around. His agenda and personality resonates with half of America. It’s time for our half to understand why we got our ass handed to us and how we can help the working class without sounding like condescending arseholes.
