| Space Force Chief Trotted Out to Attack Tucker Carlson After He Mocks ‘Maternity Flight Suits' |
| 2021-03-15 |
| [American Crisis] For the most part, however, the U.S. armed forces managed to buck that trend and remained as apolitical as possible. The military was the one government institution Americans still believed in. BLUF: So it really comes as no surprise that the military would trot out Space Force chief Scott Stalker to attack Fox News’ Tucker Carlson following his mockery of remarks Biden had made early last week. |

| #12 Maternity flight suits, eh? Personally, I want our gals to feel smart and pretty while they are raining down hate and discontent on the enemies of our nation. But fashion is not the big issue here, it is the 2nd passenger, the reason our Space Forces need a maternity pickle suit - yes, I am talking about the fetus. Your basic fetus is even more soft and squishy than your typical female recruit. Given that they don't get out much for the first 9 months, regular PT is out. But they can undergo centrifuge training to accustom them to the dynamic forces of flight and make sure there is no gap in our war-fighting readiness. Given China's rapidly increasing militarization and huge population, we run the risk of a fetus gap. The first step to counter this is to set up a program to make sure every fetus is centrifuge-qualified. Gentlemen, we cannot allow a fetus gap. |

| #10 #5 yes. "Adjust fire" refers to changing the angle of their loose cannon. |

| #9 To many woman use the pregnancy's angle to dodge deployment. I'm not sure what the answer is but they've got to do something. Maybe go back to segregated units, not by race but sex and/or orientation. If they are letting down other women in their unit perhaps they'd be less willing to pull this kind of stuff. If they are still willing to get pregnant just as they are ready to deploy the all-woman unit would be combat ineffective far to often and we can have a discussion on women in combat. |

| #8 /\ I have no problem with them wearing 'pickle suits' and receiving flight pay if they're flying. It's the base pay I'm not comfortable with. Preggy pickle suit? Watermelon comes to mind. |

| #7 Funny how no on mentions that being pregnant grounds pilots and air crews. They still get paid for flight status but flight duties are stopped. So why do they even need a flight suit???? |

| #6 When you empty the bench to counter some guy who said you are too woke, and you find out you are too woke to make the argument. |

| #5 "We are human and we messed up. We intended to speak up for female Marines and it was an effort to support them. They are a crucial part to our corps and we need them to know that. We will adjust fire and ensure the utmost professionalism in our tweets." Strange choice of words. If the US Military equates its PR operation to a virtual firing exercise then who is the enemy that is being fired upon? |

| #4 Tucker is not the friggin enemy. He's a news common tater (well most of the time anyway). |

| #3 Stalker stuck his neck out, expecting to impress his bosses. Now he probably wishes he sat this out. |

| #2 Fearing a possible administration folding of his new, Donald Trump created command, I suspect Stalker, like any valued courtier, sprinted to the media on his own. A lowly, self serving, latrine comment at best. Stalker indicted the masses when attempted discredit Carlson for not serving. Perhaps he has forgotten who pays for his retirement and Tri-Care. Please, if you will, just STFU ! |

| #1 For the most part, however, the U.S. armed forces managed to buck that trend and remained as apolitical as possible Well, the rank and file. The senior leadership however.....no. Anything above one star is a politician. |
