Biden also believes that the economy is booming and inflation is not a problem

It’s fitting that he   believes he’s been tough on the border

Russia is producing artillery shells around three times faster than Ukraine's Western allies and for about a quarter of the cost

Russia is producing artillery shells around three times faster than Ukraine's Western allies and for about a quarter of the cost, according to an analysis shared with Sky News.

The figures, produced by the management consulting firm Bain & Company, underline a major challenge faced by the Ukrainian armed forces as they rely on supplies of ammunition from the United States and Europe to battle Russia's full-scale invasion.

The war has been described from the start as a "battle of fires" because of the volume of artillery rounds used.

It prompted the US, the UK and other European allies to seek to ramp up production in their respective factories, but their ability to manufacture artillery rounds still lags behind Russia's despite a combined economic strength that far outmatches Moscow's.

As a result, Ukrainian soldiers on the frontline say for every one round they fire against Russian positions, the invading troops can launch around five shells back.  .  .

So the Libertarian Party is running a Democrat for president

The Democrat Party  is running a Democrat for president

And the Republican Party is running a Democrat for president

50 Years of fighting the cold war, and this is the trifecta we finally get.

Not sure about that premise since the same physical constants in our universe could be applied to others.  Don't want to place limits on what G-d can do.  But there is the matter of how 'infinite number of universes" came to be in the first place.  Wouldn't there need to be a Creator for that?

There’s already a party that promotes this nonsense. We dont need another

Exactly.  The 'guy' is clearly a Democrat, not a Libertarian.

Why settle for a one-size-fits-all model when you can have the best of all situations.  If a future F-16 or F-20 prototype can dogfight better than a F-35, then build that prototype.  Just don't replace your entire air fleet with it.  Likewise, if a future F-15 prototype is better at tactical bombing at night than the F-35, then build that prototype.  Just don't replace your entire fleet with that one aircraft.

It's the one-size-fits-all concept of the F-35 that is a stupid idea.  It would be like the US building only one type fighter aircraft in WWII and using that one plane for all missions.  So which one do you choose?  The P-38?  The Grumman Hellcat?  The F-4 Corsair?

Of course Congress will choose the aircraft that dumps more money into their districts and ensures their re-elections.  Which is why the 50-year-old F-16 is still in production.

RIP Libertarian Party: Get a load of the goober they just nominated as their presidential candidate

NTB Staff  ·  May 27, 2024


Welp, it looks like the leftist decay has finally finished off whatever may have remained of the Libertarian Party. Gone are the days of Ron Paul calling for the government to end the Fed and Rand Paul's defiance of COVID mandates.

Behold, the official Libertarian Party nominee for U.S. president, Chase Oliver:




Let's quickly search his X feed and see some of his positions on hot-button issues:

COVID mandates:




Transing the kids:

The F-35 in this exercise was a prototype or pilot production plane, not fully functional, and some of its capabilities were switched off. I get that F-35 Bashing is a cottage industry, but bashers really need to move on from this non-valid test.

Doesn't seem like anything has changed though?
