This is so true. Barely anything of an adjustment period. Just temperature whiplash

It's always crazy to see largely untouchable billionaire figures actually get grilled by senators. Josh Hawley seems to have a little controversy around him, but wow. In those hearings, he spits nothing but facts and reams these people. It needs to happen. The Boeing CEO, "cover-up" Kash Patel, etc

The question is, how do we get enforced accountability back?

Accountability for corporate exploitation, sensitive data collection, where our tax dollars are going towards, housing standards, drug prices, etc.

If congress were full of 30-50 year olds, that stuff would be high priority.

I overheard a relative, who's a Trump supporter (would never admit this to me) making a bunch of points against him to friends that I had said to them. I guess it really did get them questioning and breaking down the absolutely ridiculous political facade!

I feel so bad, a whole generation duped.

Or at the least, if some issue were important enough, or affected the general population enough, then it would rise to the highest courts to be opposed. Not anymore.

The hardest opposition gets put towards a fabricated issue, or towards blowing one out of proportion, and that gives it validation.

Guy can't even conceptualize the idea of empathy.

He pardons rioters, fellow pedophiles, internet fraudsters, Isreali terrorists and foreign leaders who have sworn fealty to him left and right - then disses veterans.

You gotta lick his boots til your tongue's polished black to mean anything to him

Oh, and I'm sure that the Presidential Medal of Freedom also means a lot more because it's awarded by him. Holy narcissism

You couldn't pound a nail made of pure humility or shame into his head with a sledgehammer.

Not to be a keyboard warrior or whatever but I'll just say that enablers of authoritarianism lose my respect as soon as that card is shown.

My other two M4's are PCCs. The Ronin (with the vector-style magwell) and the QRF Mod.2, they both take the same stick mags. Super convenient

-and even then, they sell almost all their parts direct so nothing's really unattainable for necessary repairs. It only impedes upgradability and I personally see no need for it.

I think they beat Specna and EMG. Performance on par with G&G but even better in many ways.

I should really be a better tech but I'm lazy when it comes to the guns so I much prefer stuff that works good out-of-the-box and I'll vouch heavy for KWA's M4 platform.

I've got 3 now and they all rock! Absolutely worth what you pay for unless you're very techy since they're pretty proprietary.

Here's the rear view of the RAV btw. I love my Mayflower (Velocity) backpack on my other vest so much I got another but with the gas mask bag. It fits my M320 perfectly and I can access it easy while wearing. The RG also doesn't clash with the OD I'm super happy!

Pretty expensive but I like it!

- Swagman Poncho
- Gray camo-painted Rain Jacket
- Nomex Flight Gloves
(surprisingly warm! my hands get cold quick)

My plate carrier's got multicam pouches. It's Lancer Tactical or something idk. So comfy. Has more coverage than more high-speed vests but still with the quick release buckles.

And in case you're wondering what I was rocking:

- Multicam pants and combat top
- Repro bump helmet with Novritsch Kreuzotter skrim cover
(the fabric is pretty bright under nods, thankfully no nods that night)
- Condor Summit soft shell
(not too warm on its own but great under a vest!)
- KWA M4A1

I do hope the day comes that their carelessness comes back to bite them hard. They won't even bother to put in the effort to try and cover up their intentions
