No. I call out Democrats sneeding about losing every time. Still salty since 1865. Should have banned the party after that.

I'm not a Democrat, and 99% of the people today who are (correctly) pointing out that the Constitution had no clauses against secession at the time of the Civil War, are not Democrats either.

I will also point out that the super pro-Union people in 2025 tend to be Reddit soys who hate America in any context outside the Civil War/WW2, and associate the Confederacy with anyone vaguely rightwing.

I've figured out the damage path roughly on google maps. It continued past the west runway going south over the railroad and into this UPS warehouse and several other buildings and parking lots.

QUICK How can we blame Pete Buttigieg for this?

Shelter in place for everyone north of the crash site at the airport in Louisville up to the Ohio River?
That's the entire city.
Jesus Christ.

Wouldn't surprise me if it's because the plane's manifest showed hazardous materials on board or something.

It looks like it tore through an industrial area immediately past the runway. Big warehouses. There'd be a whole lot more dead if that was a neighborhood.

Nigga I an Union because A. Grew up in Illinois, i.e. I'm a Yankee, and B: I will NEVER let the Democrats forget their treason. EVER.

Lol. I just wrestled an EBT American to the ground trying to steal $900 of soda from my store. That's a 3rd degree felony. See you in 3 years.

 

[babyDunk]

Jeez, how many people were in those buildings? I really hope not too many.

Was this a failed take off or a disastrous landing? What do we know?

 

[Sensitive Young Man]

Oh shit they're evacuating

Takeoff

@Catch The Rainbow is this true?

it's a third world news bot that can't read plain english. Its sources are these two screenshots.


Jews leaving to florida is not new and this isn't referring to Israelis but Jews since Israelis can't make aliyah.



Mamdani promised to shut down Technion (Israeli version of MIT that develops cutting edge tech). The person is seething saying that other states would love to take that talent.

Nothing about Israelis visiting. Hate these "news" bots

Was this a failed take off or a disastrous landing? What do we know?

Not related to ATC, engine was on fire before take off
