@adamwren @EWErickson @playbookdc Wouldn’t there have been a NOTAM put out the day prior for the closure of the airspace? If so why wouldn’t they have delayed the flight prior to boarding?

New in @playbookdc: Air rehearsal for the UFC fight Sunday held up angry midwestern members of Congress on the runway at DCA yesterday. The pilot informed the peeved passengers that if they wanted to register their frustration, they should call their congressperson.

@AdamSchefter Good Luck in Philly @ajepenesa24. We’re going to miss you Buffalo.

Eagles signed former Bills DE A.J. Epenesa. Epenesa originally was Buffalo’s 2020 second-round pick. He planned to sign with the Browns in March, but didn’t pass his physical. Now he lands in Philadelphia.

@CollinRugg I realize Austin got the max sentence but don’t we think a 17 year old boy could be rehabilitated and become a viable part of society? Punishment is meant to deter and rehabilitate. Shorter sentences are not deterrent but sometimes they make sense

BREAKING: Karmelo Anthony found guilty of murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf. Anthony stabbed Metcalf in the chest at a track meet in Frisco, Texas, in 2025. "You do not get to meet a shove with a stab, especially if you provoke the shove," Prosecutor Bill Wirskye told the jury. Anthony is facing a potential sentence of between five and 99 years in prison. Give him the max sentence.

@PeteThamel One question, the injunction allows him to play this year but could the NCAA deem Texas Tech ineligible for post season bowls or playoffs?

@WillSommers2 Not for Long. Moving to Kansas in 2031 with a new fixed roof stadium

The Kansas City Chiefs play in Missouri but you never hear anyone talk about that

@rawsalerts JD Vance will never get the Independents. Rubio is the guy that can get them. Without independents going to be extremely hard to win a national election

🚨 #BREAKING: Gavin Newsom is now tied with JD Vance in the 2028 Presidential Election odds — Polymarket.

Post a picture YOU took. Just a pic. No description

@SabreReportPod NO

Will the Slug jersey return in 2026-27?

@RepRoKhanna On the very funny but wrong spectrum. Since he wants it expanded now, The president could accommodate him. While I find this wrong for either party to do, it would be funny. On term limits I believe he'd need a constitutional amendment which requires 2/3 of the states approval.

The Supreme Court has engaged in an ugly recidivism that has marked the fastest rollback of Black political rights since Reconstruction. 18 year terms limits on Justices now. Expand the court from 9 to 13 Justices now.

@dharh @NY_LBSS @pat_hedger Not a huge fan of the windmill approach. But it works. There are too many moving parts. The solar is what China is concentrating on. China generates 1.234 TW of electric via solar power and is increasing by 15% annually. The US total electric generation 1.45 TW as a comparison

We do not have unlimited oil and gas. That is not a thing. Regardless, with gas turbine demand, lead times have stretched from 2–3 years to as long as 5–7 years. We just simply can't build them fast enough. Coal is toxic and expensive, that is the reason why natural gas has almost completely replaced coal. We need an all of the above approach to meet energy demand. We have no other option than to rely on gas, wind, solar, and batteries.

The data center issue is very similar to the housing issue. A lot of blaming demand without addressing supply.

@PatMcAfeeShow I would think Christmas day would be considered prime time which would make it 7 for Buffalo

The Los Angeles Rams have seven primetime games this season.. The Packers, Chiefs, Bills, and Seahawks all have six primetime games #PMSLive

@MCCCANM So Great that you got to do that. That’s important for the family. I took my last fight dropping a Chinook at Corpus Christi Army depot for repair. As soon as I got back they diagnosed me with asthma and got grounded for my last 2 years. Didn’t get the chance for the last flight

More thoughts on landings: I went to the Reserves & got re-qualified as a KC-10 instructor after a couple years away from the jet. The DO (Director of Operations) assigned me to fly w/ the Wing Commander, who flew jets occasionally now & had only a weird “Senior Staff” Qual in the KC-10. Long story. Anyway, the DO gave me a warning. He phrased it in a nice way, but told me they only allowed certain instructors to fly w/ the Wing Commander. It piqued my curiosity, but I didn’t go on high alert or anything. So, we’re on the last landing of the sortie, really late at night. Things look fine, he’s doing fine, and I’m happy we’re almost done. Somehow in the last 100’, this guy manages to put the jet down almost in the lights leading up to the runway. I’ve never seen anything like it & couldn’t explain it. It was like the universe paused, reset our height above the ground, then resumed play. We touched down on the main gear maybe 50’ from the runway threshold. I didn’t have time to react. I realized we were safe & stopping, so didn’t say anything. I didn’t debrief him, either…he wasn’t going to listen to me anyway. I tried to figure out how that happened. I honestly never did. I didn’t see any yoke movements or power adjustments that would account for it, nor was there any weather that would do it. We were on speed & glidepath. I still don’t really know. Anyway, I talked to the DO the next day. He wasn’t surprised, and reiterated that was why they only let him fly with a handful of instructors. I flew with him again, and it was vanilla, but I watched like a Hawk. That lesson sticks with me. Fast forward to years later, and I haven’t actually flown the KC-10 in a long time. I’m not current & so my qualification has lapsed. I hear my son on a video game group chat telling others something along the lines of “yeah, when my dad retires I get to wave the jet in to parking”. Shit. The kids are expecting that. I was just going to go away quietly…I had a lot going on in those years. A lot. I didn’t have the bandwidth for the KC-10, but now there is an expectation & I can’t let them down. So, the squadron goes to extraordinary lengths & draws up a whole requalification plan for me, which has to be signed at multiple levels. In reality, it’s just to do one last flight, and not even do much flying. The squadron was extremely gracious in this regard. My instructor, a good friend of mine, offers me the last landing. I’ve strapped into the seat for this one…I’d been napping in the back while the other pilots took turns practicing touch & gos for their currency. I considered it, but the jet – which I had thousands of hours on – felt huge now & I was uncomfortable. I declined & put my hands in my lap. He landed & slowed it down. I took over to taxi it in for my kids, and then we had the whole show of throwing water on me, champagne & pictures. And that was it. That was my last landing in a military jet.

@716Transplant Poland is the top of my list. Haven't been there as of yet. The people I've spoken with that have been there rave about it. They say Krakow is beautiful.

Going on a short lil vacation and narrowed it down to two options - which one should I choose? Poland Slovenia (Haven’t been to either)

@angie_rasmussen She's a witch

Casey Means is an Instagram influencer turned functional tech med grifter. She is a resident dropout, is not board-certified, her license is inactive, & she does not practice medicine. Means is unqualified for the job even without considering her root cause metabolic bullshit.

@LoganDobson @EWErickson The problem with data centers is they are high electric consumers. Without increased generation they will drive rates through the roof from lack of supply. Want to build a data center, put in enough solar to generate your usage. I’d vote 100% of the time for it in that scenario

America’s tech companies would create a near-infinite amount of blue collar jobs building and maintaining data centers if we simply… let them

@DanODonnellShow How about an independent board redraws every state to eliminate all gerrymandered districts for both parties.

Democrat Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers says the state's congressional map is gerrymandered for Republicans and needs to be redrawn. The only problem? HE DREW THE STATE'S CONGRESSIONAL MAP!

@Kimmick86 I left Buffalo 27 years ago and I can still sing it. Be it the old words.

Idk man but I think the arena full of Americans belting the Canadian Anthem when Camis mic kicked was really inadvertently powerful 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸 #letsgobuffalo

@CaptLefty42 @JTAlexander Jack Daniel’s is not good whiskey 🥃. But that’s my opinion.

@JTAlexander What to ruin a good whiskey! 🤦‍♂️

I’ve seen gay porn less homosexual than this.

@visionergeo The problem with thus approach is how do you take out the Missile City 500 meters below ground without boots on the ground? Our largest Bunker busters can't get that deep from what I've seen.

🇺🇸 The chairman of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee, Roger Wicker, called on Donald Trump to renew offensive strikes on Iran and stated that "the time for negotiations with the Iranian government has run out." ⚔️🇮🇷 The Republican senator noted that the radical successors of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei cannot be trusted and they will not abide by any agreement. He urged the U.S. president to order military commanders to completely dismantle Iran's conventional military capabilities and destroy the remnants of its nuclear program. 🗣️ Wicker concluded by stating that this approach is the only way to achieve "long-term stability" in the region.
