So the Houthis spooked a US carrier into dropping a fighter jet in the drink.

The wheels have come off. GOP step up and do your damn job.

@murray.senate.gov another great idea, just yours for the taking

ericblyler.bsky.social•58 days ago

Also that's a friggin hard turn for a carrier if it can push a 15-ton fighter jet off the deck.

ericblyler.bsky.social•58 days ago

@reed.senate.gov you and Senator Wicker should get the SecDef in to explain this.

virginiafrog.bsky.social•57 days ago

Article says the jet was under tow in the hangar bay…so that’s definitely a hard turn, and the carrier must have already been doing 20-25+ knots…

At this point I wouldn’t even bother asking. I’d simply call a press conference and state that the Houthis were able to use the tactical details blasted out by the careless and reckless Secretary of Defense to endanger U.S. service personnel and cause the loss of a very expensive carrier aircraft.

ericblyler.bsky.social•57 days ago

well thankfully we didn’t lose a carrier, just an F-18 that fell off the deck when the carrier had to take evasive maneuvers due to incoming fire.

digitmusic.bsky.social•57 days ago

Maybe its simpler than all that. My guess is that Putin just wanted one of our best jets to study the technology.

dianesf.bsky.social•57 days ago

That is a perfect example of this administration/regime.

I can promise you if the roles were reversed, that is exactly what the wall to wall coverage and chryons would read on Fox News. Democrats…we are just so bad at this shit!!

willpunctuate.bsky.social•57 days ago

Shit is already falling apart.
Gonna be an interesting summer

meatieocre.bsky.social•57 days ago

Goddammit, we carry the big stick so we don't have to actually use it. What are you fucking people missing here?

Congress needs to investigate this stat

Pawing through Kristi’s purse looking for the blow

jamesfromqueens.bsky.social•57 days ago

Nope, they’re too busy voting with the Republicans, something they actually seem to enjoy.

jessedcaron.bsky.social•57 days ago

Not only that but the Houthis shooting down so many drones

naveman.bsky.social•57 days ago

You know if all this happened under Biden Fox News would be at kinkos xeroxing everyone’s scripts for the next three days. Messaging would be laser focused on this and nothing else. Fox News, AM radio, unfunny comedian podcast circuit, NY Post, NY Times, all in lock step and synched up.

ericblyler.bsky.social•57 days ago

lol kinkos

johnpfree.bsky.social•57 days ago

Probably not, but if the situations are reversed, what would the Republicans do?
They would do exactly what you say!!!

tengland76.bsky.social•57 days ago

They’ll spend their time voting with Republicans.

johnjmckevitt.bsky.social•57 days ago

This combined with multiple reaper drones shot down should lead to some questions, but that’s not happening

owtasite.bsky.social•57 days ago

Just asking questions…
