Being a pilot has its ups and downs. Landed here you’ll find a smattering of odds and ends from 22+yrs as a #helicopter #pilot and a current air ambulance driver. ✌🏼🇺🇸🧢 🚁 Opinions are my own. Salt to taste. #aviation #airmedical #HEMS #HAA #CFII

The problem is not Anti-Christian bias, the problem is Anti-Jesus Christians.

As a former staffer, I answered hundreds of constituent calls. These calls do shape how Reps vote and make decisions. I made a list of all the Senators by state with contact info for each of their many state offices. Let's flood the zone with our outrage. quartzevelyn.substack.com/p/senate-con...

🚨🚨Millions of Americans rely on Medicaid for their health care, but MAGA Republicans, Trump and Elon Musk want to cut funding to give billionaires and the ultra-wealthy a $4.6 trillion tax break. We need to be as loud📢 as possible when we tell them #HandsOffOurMedicaid

The Un-United States of Mis-Informerica where not-president Musk and his puppet prince Trump disregard the constitution and laws of the land because …. Cowards in power wont act on their sworn duties. …. Rally cry…. They are eating the checks… They are eating the balances…

Ketchup On Walls Alert: HIGH

Trump tried to fire her.. ... Ellen Weintraub Chairman of the Federal Elections Committee rolled her eyes and said.... I don't think so and went back to work. 😂😪 There's a legal way 2 do this & this ain't it. Can we have Weintraub give workshops 2 all The Dems? open.substack.com/pub/thetonym...

They're eating the checks! They're eating the balances!

Too many people didn't appreciate just how wonderful, how glorious, it was that the daily news cycle during Biden's presidency was boring as fuck.

If you think my friend Sandi Is correct Drop a 🦋 and share

I stand with the men and women of the FBI who investigated the crimes WE ALL SAW TRUMP'S ANGRY MOB COMMIT on Jan. 6, 2021. They did the hard, honest, ethical work of protecting We The People & American democracy. Now it's our turn to stand with them. You in?

Winter flying. Sometimes the skies aren’t too friendly. Sometimes we stay in the hangar - ice is unforgiving. Sometimes we find a way through the muck and mire. #haa #skymed #medevac

It's Black History Month. US Army Air Corps Lt. Col. Harry T. Stewart Jr. died yesterday. He was one of the last surviving combat pilots known as the Tuskegee Airmen. #WeRememberThem and #HistorySky. www.clickondetroit.com/news/local/2...

#BlackHistoryMonth Day 4/28: Bessie Coleman (1892-1926) was the first Black and Native American woman to become a pilot. Her brothers spoke of female pilots in France after returning from WWI, which inspired the Chicago manicurist to seek training. No US outfit would, so she learned French and left.

Today, Berlin made history 🇩🇪 Over 160,000 people marched peacefully against the rise of the AFD and far-right ideology. A powerful stand for democracy, dignity, and Human Rights. ⚖️🌍 #StandAgainstHate #HumanRights

OMFG! 🔥🔥🔥🔥Rep. Jasmine Crockett: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 "We are going to be in your faces, we're gonna be on your ass, we're going to make sure you understand that this is what democracy looks like!"

Anyone who has ever been in the military knows that if it happens on your watch, you own it. It was YOUR responsibility. No Commanding Officer wants to hear jack shit about what the guy on the watch before you did if the event in question happened on YOUR watch. So, thank you, DJT, for $7 a dz eggs.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Musk amplifying the lie that we spent $50 million on condoms for Gaza makes him…a rubber baron. Thank you, I’m here all week.

@occupydemocrats.bsky.social Cross posting because this was on one of other less cool places but I didn’t see this here.

This says it all.

The USAF has reversed itself "after uproar." We must continue to pay attention. We must continue to preserve & share the stories of the Tuskegee Airmen & the Women Airforce Service Pilots. I promised them I would always tell their stories. You can too. Knowledge is power! www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

Military leadership toeing the wrong line.

So how’s it going so far?

To recap, Yes, many harmful orders came from the highest office, BUT helpers arose: The Reverend from her pulpit who called for love & mercy. The staff who kept officers from raiding their school. The lawyers who sprung into action to protect vulnerable communities. We are all the helpers now.

Of course ending birthright citizenship is blatantly unconstitutional. So is a third term in office. But I thought the same thing about presidential criminal immunity and holding office after inciting an insurrection. The obvious is not so obvious anymore.

Workplace raids have begun—none of these people were rapists or criminals. Even if you’re not a US citizen, you still have due process in this country. 3 workers in Newark were taken into custody by ICE w/out a warrant. One, a veteran, endured the humiliation of having his military docs questioned.

'Twas the night before Christmas, and out on the ramp, Not an airplane was stirring, not even a Champ. The aircraft were fastened to tie downs with care, In hopes that come morning they all would be there. The fuel trucks were nestled, all snug in their spots, With gusts from two-forty at 39 knots.

Davis Logsdon, a researcher at the University of Minnesota who studies drones of unknown origin, said that “on a scale of one to ten, with ten being most threatening, I would give these drones a three, and Hegseth a ten.” (Satire) open.substack.com/pub/borowitz...

#WhirlyGigWednesday Busy day back in the day. The regional level one trauma center has three helipads. Why hospitals are built without at least one ground level or rooftop helicopter pad will always baffle me.
