Well shoot - let's just go ahead and push the button now.
No, I'm just joking at all of this madness. But it would solve my retirement problem (same for Laz I think).

He called on Western pilots to come and “fight for freedom” in Ukraine until Kiev can train its own airmen. American-made F-16 fighters have started to arrive in Ukraine, but there are currently not enough pilots to fly them.
During a press conference in Kiev on Monday, Graham said: “If you’re a retired F-16 pilot and you’re looking to fight for freedom, they will hire you here“
“They’re going to look throughout NATO nations for willing fighter pilots who retired to come help them, until they can get their pilots trained.”
The warmonger then added: “We’re going to get these jets into the theater sooner rather than later“
RT reports: A host of Western nations, including Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway, have pledged to provide Ukraine with more than 80 F-16 fighters. In service since 1978, the F-16 is currently flown by more than two dozen countries, although many are retiring these aging airframes in favor of the more modern F-35.
Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky confirmed earlier this month that the first batch of F-16s had arrived in the country, and were already being flown by Ukrainian pilots. Zelensky did not say how many jets had arrived, and the American-built fighters have yet to be spotted in combat.
Zelensky admitted that Ukraine does not have enough pilots to fly all of the jets pledged by the West, but said that “many guys are now training.” These pilots are currently being trained in the US and Denmark, while it is unclear whether a new training hub in Romania has begun accepting cadets. In June, a Pentagon official told Politico that a total of 20 Ukrainian F-16 pilots are expected to graduate by the end of this year, half of the 40 needed to make up a squadron…

Man, the Deep State is deep as shit.
There are a few hundred people in DC who need to go. Linda is one.
Lindsey Graham could head right to the front lines - 12-24 hours they could have him in direct combat with the Russians
That works -
They never should have stopped calling faggotry a mental illness.
Wasn’t Senator Hiney Boi in the Air Force, once upon a time? If he has no useful skilz, they could strap him to the side of a vehicle as reactive armor.
Annoying little homo is seeing $$$$$$’s.
If I recall correctly, Russia has said it would execute foreigners captured while fighting for Ukraine. They would not be accorded the rights of soldiers captured in war...so far as Russia adheres to those rules.
This psychopathic nitwit has never been in the US military for even a second. His bloodlust for murdering others is beyond sanity. Pox upon him.
...if I am not mistaken, he is a retired full bird Colonel from the Unites States Air Force Reserve, served in the Judge Advocate General Corps (JAG) for many years.... we may not like him all that much but at least give him his due for his military service......
Desk Rider. Heard he chipped his finger nail polish once moving chairs.
Why just retired F-16 pilots? Why not any retired or former military trained on any weapon you’re sending over there? It’s a “fight for freedom”, right? Why stop at F-16s? And if you don’t get enough for your war, start drafting them, Linda. Moron.
Linda was JAG
Why send more planes than the number of pilots we are training?
A few might punch out and survive being shot down to fly another plane, but probably not that many.
Lindsey needs to be replaced.
What about gals?
He'll make a fine reactive armor panel then.
Russia should just make good on its threat.
I’m down with it.
What is wrong with the South Carolina electorate? Seems they should be able to primary him out of there.
Or is it the party bosses that want LG in there?
It continues to amaze me that people on this website are mad that America is committing only money and weapons, NOT men, to degrade one of our most prolific enemies (Russia). It’s just amazing.
