Inside Air Force One as new era beckons for presidential plane

The famous Boeing 747 which has been part of the fabric of US history for decades could soon be supplied by Qatar.

Trump will either be dead or drooling in his oatmeal by the time that 747 is retro fitted properly. It most likely will be used for other purposes than AF1. Or commissioned just in time for President Cortez in 2035

But! It will force Boeing to step its game up. If they have rooted out the DEI priorities in mid level leadership focused on mandatory (your a racist, you just don’t know it training) and other wasted time and energy when that time could have been used on more of the original Kaizen. Or even better do a “ Go and See” of the U.S. Navy (SubSafe) program. Jets don’t need the entire (SubSafe) level of process. But some best practices could be borrowed.

Your breaking news is old news… it happened over a month ago…

And… the AP is still not allowed in the Oval Office or Air Force One… the Trump Administration immediately took follow on action..

So the “news” is the judges ruling has had zero effect, the AP is still in the penalty box, and nothing changed..

You’re going to have to work a little harder with your hatred if you want to post something worth reading..

 

[mdwest]

Don‘t call it hatred, rather contempt…

Perhaps you should be accurate when contemptuous then…

What you posted has been seen as a big Trump win.. not a loss at all..

He has not only kept the AP out as he wished… but he’s also shown another activist judge his middle finger in the process..

MAGA is celebrating..

The Donald seems to flip flop on his views and thoughts from day to day.....not too much consistency......

Trump's frantic peacebrokering week hints at what he really wants

After seven breathless days of diplomatic hurly burly, we have a clearer idea of the US president's global ideology - and the limits of his 'art of a deal'.

It's disturbing to think that there are people that would actually give that guy money

It's tough to keep up with what course of action is going to best stoke the ego day to day.

It's a pyrrhic victory that makes no difference whatsoever. Here's how the white house has worked for the past 30+ years: You find a partisan stooge of your political leaning that is in the press corp, you state they can ask you the following scripted questions. If they play the reporter game, they are granted exclusive interviews. Inversely, if you have dirt on a sitting presidency you threaten to do your job and publish it....OR you can trade it for more exclusivity that drives network ratings.

The press is part of the machine. It still will be whether certain members of the press or certain networks aren't allowed on planes or in buildings.

Biden diagnosed with 'aggressive form' of prostate cancer with metastasis to the bone.

Biden diagnosed with 'aggressive form' of prostate cancer with metastasis to the bone.

I feel truly sad for him.

No matter how much I differ from someone politically, I dislike hearing that they are suffering and in pain. Both my father and sister died very slowly from very aggressive forms of cancer.

We have all known Biden was not in good health for many years, and no matter how we feel about his politics, we should keep the former President and his family in our prayers.

 

[Brent in Az]

I don't feel sad for him. He was a corrupt grifter, and nothing but a puppet for the left, yet, allowed the atrocities of the deep state on his watch.
I hope he finds his peace with God. He's going to need that grace.

It's not hard to imagine what would be said around here if it was Trump in Bidens state of health.

 

[Brent in Az]

If Biden has something along the lines close to stage 4 cancer, it just didn't happen overnight.
Just another instance of a Washington D.C cover-up

That may be so, but unlike the left, I don't let politics destroy my humanity.

I feel bad for Joe Biden that he couldn’t get proper medical care and get prostate PSA screening annually like the rest of us.

Or he has had this for years and It’s just another lie. I’m guessing the latter.

A side benefit is, he will get a lot of sympathy that will improve his legacy. Who knows he may even get a library now. But unfortunately, having cancer doesn’t make you a good person or a good president.

 

[mdwest]

I don’t wish cancer or suffering on anyone..

But legacy improving sympathy is something he won’t get from me. I believe there is more than enough evidence that he was a horrible human being (the 50+ legacy of outright lies caught on film and tape, the quality of people he associated with, the quality of the children he raised, the way he lived his life in general, etc)… and plenty of evidence he was a horrible president as well (atrocious foreign policy, atrocious domestic policy, absenteeism, hard push toward DEI, etc etc)..

The American people will sympathize for a few months through his medical care and death..

But I don’t think historians will record much about his cancer other than thankfulness that he didn’t get a second term (that he very clearly wanted) because a president with cancer turning over the reigns to Harris somewhere during the term, would have been a death sentence to the country.. and one he was more than willing to stroke the gavel on had his party given him the opportunity…
