The more I hear about the Gripens, the more I like them.
Yes they are sitting ducks on the ground.
One bomb or missile strike on the runway(s) and the F35s can no longer take off or land.
They need 8,000ft minimum to take off when armed & fuelled for combat.
The Gripen needs less than 2,000ft fully loaded for landings. Less for take offs.
Roads work too.
The best info is that all the current F-35 operators are struggling maintain a 50% availability rate. It doesn't matter how good tech tech is if they can't fly. They are sitting ducks on the ground. In WWII the term was "hangar queen".

Nothing defines narcissist like….
Straight-up sociopath.

Asked about a Guard member who’s dead because of his bullshit and it takes him 30 seconds to make it all about how great he is.
Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?

TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

Yesterday, I attended the Commemoration on the Hill honouring the 14 young women whose lives were taken at Polytechnique Montréal 36 years ago. 

We say their names. We honour their lives. We reaffirm our shared commitment to ending gender-based violence.

The “Biden filth” trump is talking about fixing is the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool which was completed in 1923. Can we please stop this psycho from tearing up any more of our property!! It belongs to the American people not him!!

No one shld lose sight of the fact that the Guard was only in DC as part of an extended political messaging stunt. The shooter is guilty for the attacks/carnage. Donald Trump is responsible for them. This is the collateral damage of Trump abusing his powers as President.

Perhaps the smartest #ClimateAction investment in cities is in public transit. While others make excuses, Paris is building a WHOLE NEW METRO NETWORK CONNECTING SUBURBS.

“There was a law passed that makes it almost impossible not to certify them once they come in”

Trump knows his admin granted asylum to the Afghan shooter, so he’s blaming the law.

A judge ruled the National Guard deployment illegal.

If the law mattered, the troops would have been home.

Thanks to everyone who came out to the @meidascanada.ca townhall with @westendphoenix.bsky.social at the Paradise Theatre in Toronto.
It was a sold out event.
We had a great discussions about resistance in this new dark age.
And we raised money for the Parkdale food bank.

We literally just watched this type of thing in 2 separate US election cycles. Kamala was attacked by the left for being too far right, ditto with Hillary. Both were called war mongers & corporate shills. It helped deliver a win to a murderous authoritarian regime instead.

Although most US cities have failed at attracting families with kids in downtowns and other urban places (largely through the creation of a self-fulfilling prophesy of failure), other places, including Vancouver, have succeeded. Read my @vox.com interview with @volts.wtf. www.vox.com/2017/6/21/15...
Young families typically leave cities for the suburbs. Here’s how to keep them downtown.

In less than 2 weeks, Trump has called one female reporter “piggy,” another female reporter “ugly“ and a third female reporter “stupid.”
All decent Americans are disgusted by this.
Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean

TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?

TRUMP: You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person
