Defense News: ‘Controversial changes’ are coming in US Air Force’s next budget, its top civilian says
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Air Force’s top civilian hinted the service will make major cuts to certain legacy programs — and potentially retire entire aircraft inventories — to further invest in advanced technology for combating future threats.
Acting Air Force Secretary Matt Donovan said the service is following the lead of Defense Secretary Mark Esper, who said he is open to divesting legacy capabilities and has directed a Defense Department-wide review aimed at reshaping the fiscal 2021 budget.
“His guidance states that ‘no reform is too small, too bold or too controversial to be considered,’ ” Donovan said in a keynote speech at the third annual Defense News Conference.

Trump Says a Recession Isn’t Possible Because ‘Consumers Are Rich’
Again the racist card. Just wow. They never realise what they do, how they behave. And I say that as European looking from outwards. Anything seems to go.
"Hundreds?"
You cannot prove that there is not hundreds.
Consider
A) Homicide
B) DUI
C) Illegal drug trade coming through the southern border operated by Mexicans and Hezbollah
Do you care more about sports stats than the number of Americans that become statistics?
Are you more upset that Andrew Luck calling it quits messes it up Fantasy Football stats and picks than the carnage on the streets?
How come you didn't look this shit up yourself?
How come it is hard to look it up?
How come government officials and certain political officials are virulently opposed to collecting such data?
Just need to come up with 200 hundred and that will meet the definition of hundreds. You do not think you can get that out of a nation of 330 million?

All Democratic Candidates Support Health Care For Undocumented Immigrants: ‘We Do Ourselves No Favors’ When Millions Can’t Access Care
Loser and liar, go for the Trifecta you can do it!
mommy fucked up sonny retard
illegals here under both administrations. illegals here hired by American citizens. why blame liberals when there are some 12 millions illegals. Clearly they came here under both parties...Trump is NOT getting rid of 12 million illegals, though you may think so. We are talking about legal entries at the border for those seeing legal entry as well as illegals who sneak into the nation..if you claim or think liberls want illegals to get into the country than you are simply wrong

Health Care for undocumented immigrants may ‘haunt’ Dems against Trump, says ex-Sen. Evan Bayh (Democrat)
Pete Buttigieg expressed the sentiments of his fellow debaters when he said: “This is not about a handout. This is an insurance program. We do ourselves no favors by having 11 million undocumented people in our country be unable to access health care.” And then he added: “The real problem is we shouldn't have 11 million undocumented people with no pathway to citizenship. It makes no sense. The American people agree on what to do. This is a crazy thing. If leadership consists of forming a consensus around a divisive issue, this White House divided us around a consensus issue. The American people want a pathway to citizenship and protections for Dreamers.” (Greenfield, 6/28)

"Obama Has Deported More People Than Any Other President - ABC News"
Obama moved the goal post. He counted people who turned around at the border after coming face to face with an ICE agent as deported. He changed the definition to beef up his credentials to look tough.
Question: How did 2:09 PM not know that?
Answer: They do not think much if at all. They merely parrot. In fact a real parrot has a higher IQ than them. Sad but true.
Maybe they can get rated at 600% disability so they can get an SSI check from Sugar Daddy Uncle Sam.
Clearly they need 24/7 living assistance.

Foreign election interference has been going on for years.

Question: How could Parrot not know this.
Answer: Parrot is a partisan hack and all around ignoramus.
Parrot has mentioned China only 2 or 3 times when challenged and its dander was up. Must not consider a country with a bigger budget than Russia and a very long history of election meddling and buying Democrat politicians.
The must be no shame among Democrats if you a Xi's bitch!
Parrot blew a gasket.
