Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Can you explain why it is acceptable for some random chucklefucks to take a 50 million dollar piece of equipment out for a joyride to give a tik tok opportunity to Kid Fucking Rock?
Or in this day and age why we want to normalize military aircraft flying wherever they want over US cities?
Do you think that enlisted personnel that are in charge of expensive equipment are micromanaged to that level? Aircraft are given a zone they should be operating in and I doubt they went "awol." The only reason this incident matters is because they flew next to a person with somewhat popular social media. Hell a friend of mine did basically the same thing when he was doing some O-rides back in the day. Though he was in a V-22 osprey instead of an Apache.
No, the only reason that it matters is that the federal government and military are letting Trump and his friends have whatever fun they want at our expense.
Why do you think the drunkard had to cancel any investigations and let them off?
I was in the impression that it was order by someone.
No, you were under the impression that you could sow doubt where none is due.
No. Fuck Kid Rock and Hegset. I really didn’t understand how two Apache could fly by Kid Rock’s house without being authorized by someone. There’s radar cover everywhere, how could the civil and military could not call them back is beyond stupid and incompetent.
Anyway
I'm sure the investigation will clear that right up
