Britain
RAF To Use Indian Pilots As Diversity Scheme Backfires
[X:British Intel]

…rejecting qualified white male recruits under DEI quotas
🔴 Former RAF pilots now training Chinese forces for £250,000 each
🔴 Britain forced to rely on foreign militaries to train its own

This is what happens when ideology replaces merit. The British Armed Forces should defend this country — not dismantle themselves to satisfy globalist box-ticking. 🇬🇧

UK Government claims First Amendment is no defense to its censorship, to several American free speech organizations.
[X:Preston Byrme] An amusing claim. We fought two wars to put an end to that delusion.

#2  At some point, they will realize that they are screwed and will ask us to help them again. Maybe they should have Kate ask.

#1  Identify the promulgators of this insidious crap. They are anti-American. There must be something that can be done.

#2  Naked has “good naked” and “bad naked.” Same goes for entrepreneurism apparently.

#1  Another benefit for the Dems - no more pesky Constitutional thingies.

#2  Only 'essential' services will be provided.
Posted by: Bobby || 10/18/2025 10:52 Comments || Top||

#3  Probably transfer funds from at least three circuit courts that we could all benefit from shutting down.
Posted by: Super Hose || 10/18/2025 11:25 Comments || Top||

#4  Time to furlough some people. I believe we have a list of district court judges that should be on that.

#5  Article III judges are Constitutional critters, but the Constitution says nothing about functioning HVAC systems.

Basically, this the Democrat being a bunch of selfish, childish, whiners.

Could the Liberal Democrats be brought up on Civil Rights violations & the No Taxation without representation rules?
