Hey I just had a thought on election security and how bad we fucked up with BRC. So people are worried about Chinese tourist babies returning to the US to vote in elections when they are 18 right? But they don't need to return, they just need to register with a state and can vote abroad and if they need a US adress there are plenty of scam apartment buildings that exist purely for Chinese people to have a US adress. Now, for the spooky part... these people don't need to vote at all. The CCP is a totalitarian goverment that knows everything about it's citizens. They probably have a list of dual citizens living at home and can just do the paperwork and file ballots on their behalf.

Probably one of the reasons why trump wants to end mail in voting.
 
The Airforce is pushing back the retirement of the F-22s to 2032 as opposed to the planned 2027
Had no idea they were retiring the F-22 in a few years, that doesn't sound right.
The F-22's phase-out is driven by its prohibitively high sustainment costs, specialized maintenance requirements for its aging stealth coating, and limited combat range.

I don't see them getting retired until the 2050s unless something better comes along, hell, the F-16 and F-15 platforms are over 50 years old and they're still going strong. Its the only dedicated air superiority fighter we have.
Also if you have the autism I highly recommend reading the other 1614 pages of the National Defense Authorization Act bill
Theres an Aussie defense nerd, Perun who does good analysis of these books.

F-22 program started development in the 80s. It's firmly a cold war bird. It uses firewire ports for computer hookups on the ground ffs.

Because Barack the Magnificent not only scrapped the F-22 program, he ordered the DOD to scrap all the production tooling that went with it, something utterly unprecedented.
 
Generally does Californians moving somewhere ever go well for the place they moved to?
As long as you force them to live at least 100 miles from each other, forbid them from communicating with each other, ban all mass gatherings of them (mass gathering being defined as two or more), and basically keep them under 24-hour surveillance.

After a few election cycles, they'll start to assimilate.

They still have the tooling from what I understand, but to set everything back up would be astronomical. There were supposed to be like 600 jets. They cut it at less than 200
