Battle for Britain all over.
Remember when Trump first took office and Kegsbreath fired or forced retirement of a slew of Pentagon brass as DEI hires? I wonder who he fired and replaced with a sycophant dumb enough to fly an A10 in an area that has seen F15s and F35s shot down? "Oh my, they blew up our M1 tanks, so lets send in a couple 1970's school buses and see what happens."
Just another malfunction /s
Another pig in the blanket of earth.

I love being right
