Maybe some common sense, and Houston gets a capsule (they already have some) instead of wrecking the Discovery. GizmodoNASA’s New Chief Finds Loophole for Texas Shuttle Switcheroo“One way or another, we’re going to make sure Johnson Space Center gets its historic spacecraft right where it belongs.” Apparently it’s a national security issue on which spacecraft they selected.
The interesting thing to me is that if he hadn't mentioned it publicly in an interview, we might not have known about it at all. I'm also guessing that it's about risking CIA assets and not US military personnel.
These are the kind of people who are going to make it easy to get at redacted text, because you know that they are pissed that D.C. is telling them to give up their holidays.
Congress will most likely make sure, because Johnson, for all of his faults, is going to try to shore up Republican seats anywhere and everywhere and Trump's little stunt hurts the GOP in Colorado. Trump doesn't think that far ahead - he saw a chance to fuck with Boebert and took it.
Yes So do I. Would have been great if they had more long-range stuff a year ago, but you go to war with the army you have or something, not the one you want. I feel optimistic as well though. I didn't anticipate that the amount of Russian deaths/casualties would rise as fast as it did, but Putin was desperate to take some major towns ahead of "negotiations" and Russian soldiers paid dearly (as did some Russian generals apparently). Time to dust off the parallels to Afghanistan, except Russia/Soviet Union was substantially larger manpower-wise in the 1980s, and has lost far more troops in the 2020s (crazy to think Afghanistan only cost them 15,000 - 25,000 deaths).
Trump being surrounded and advised by Scientologists would be the icing on the cake. Not sure that even @Brisketexan could have developed that plot twist.
They haven’t been able to keep pace with replacements, and that never ends well. It may even be a reason why the two major cities they claimed to have taken were not in fact taken.
So I didn’t see the original on its first run in theaters, forgot why, but didn’t. I had friends though that were obsessed with it, like seeing it after work almost every day and going early on the weekend showings. I very clearly remember CNN and other outlets talking about it being a serious mental health thing. I remember thinking it was some kind of furry thing going on, but it was grabbing “normal” people.
