Well, her being a more public part of the administration absolutely destroyed her fashion business last time. I know Nordstrom publicly dumped it.

She's maybe trying to just lay low before her dad messes up her other business ventures.

Lots of stopped clocks last few months.

Not surprised, lived here while she ass AG, and she's a corrupt piece of work that makes early 1990s Russian or 1960s Illinois politician look clean in comparison.

Oh, is that why it got cold here literally overnight.

Wouldnt be surprised. We have to remember he was chosen by the handlers after all.

I have noticed a HUGE uptick in right wing troll farm accounts last few days here. I noticed they're drawn to big accounts like Ron Filipkowski especially, usually spamming the same gif or some pro-trump meme post hundreds of times across Bluesky. Sometimes they'll leave some rant with crap grammar.

And it's 100% hopeium here, but if it's a big enough majority too, maybe they'll trigger some kind of review or the behavior of that Rubber Stamp SCOTUS too. A Supreme Court this bad simply hasn't been seen since at least the late 19th century.

I read this yesterday. As someone who drives German cars, if they stopped making as many things out of the most brittle Play-doh and also focused on making their cars more user serviceable maybe they'd be in better shape? Like one of them it takes over 1.5 hrs just to get to the thermostat!

Yup. Florida had another Speechwriter some time ago, also another internet edgelord kid that got exposed as a goostepper.

We also had that young Republican chat recently.

Gotta love troll farms...

Unless it's Kanye West posting this, I can't see anyone else posting this unless they're truly insane or a foreign actor who only knows how to organize the Facebook Grandpas.

As said, I'm not one to call out older airframes as a cause. But knowing how these specifically were stored I could see them having issues with corrosion as well.

It isn't exactly like the B-52s which cn undergrad mantinance a lot or be stores jn a dry desert environment of Davis Mothan.
December 15, 2025 at 3:01 AM
So to get their horrific ratings extravaganza back, they helped Donny the pot call the kettle black and made sure folks forgot about 2017 to 2020.

I am saying that most of the US "news" MSM is no longer about reporting news first, but drawing in ad revenue, and to do so they generate outrage. Biden was bad for their profits in that aspect, as people were not glued to the screen because he ran a reasonably stable administration.
December 15, 2025 at 12:21 AM
Exactly what I am saying.

As I said, the whole thing about Biden being senile, that was the narrative being pushed by the MSM. Not my narrative. I was well aware he wasn't anywhere near Trump.

As I said, MSM targeted "undecided and independent" voters from what I see have worse memory than DJT.

I'm suspecting structural fatigue. That airframe likely sat too long exposed to the elements. I understand the flight was a test flight to check the airworthiness of the airframe (it was the last of the type flying btw.) There was another that crashed under similar circumstances 15 years ago.
December 14, 2025 at 10:04 PM
Or a 50 year old airframe that spent a good chunk of the last few years sitting outside in a climate in conditions not exactly kind to airframes with what I can only assume was mostly minimal maintenance.

This was one of the last built in 1975 of a run of 68 total.
December 14, 2025 at 10:04 PM
It was after maintenance too. I'm not one to call out old airframes (Canada uses 737-200s of similar vintage for fights to the far north, for example), but I do wonder how well the airframes would have been after being stored outside in Russia for years.

The An-22 with its tail seperating was last produced in 1976 (this specific one in 1975), but that was the last one in service apparently (I thought Antonov Airlines had one still, but it got damaged.) Apparently it was on a test flight Wouldn't be surprised if the airframe became too fatigued.
December 14, 2025 at 9:27 PM
Is that an An-22 losing its tail? Holy crap, that's literally a huge loss! Like those are just slightly smaller than a 747 in size.
December 14, 2025 at 9:13 PM
While nothing like up north, it's been colder in Florida this year. A lot like how it was in the 1990s where it would start getting cooler in September and October. People up north have been showing me photos outside and they have a large sheet.

Very out of balance this year.
December 14, 2025 at 9:06 PM
Horrible.

This is usually stuff that people in unstable war zones usually have to suffer through. I can't name any other developed counties (and many developing ones) where seeing this kind of violence with some semi-regularity is a thing!
