Let it burn in, deep like.

For some of you, I needn’t explain. For the rest, a little background.
I worked in the entertainment industry as a touring and regional sound guy. One of the clients for the company I worked with was W back in 2004. I worked closely with and along side Secret Service during these events. That podium in the foreground in the picture is called “the goose” and it is not JUST a podium. I don’t know all the details of it but I do know it is armored, has its own road case and does NOT travel on AF1. (Or did not, who the Frick knows now )
There is one other aspect to it. That Seal. It is removable. It is to be removed whenever anyone, ANYONE, other than the prez his self is at that podium.

Ok, OK Dio, get the bloody point would ya!
This image is being propagated for a reason. It ain’t good, and the fact that it is out there tells me oodles about the next 5 months and potentially the next 4-8 years.

John Ross anyone? Brackens’ trilogy anyone?
Shits starting to get heavy and I know a few are going silent, just due to that image uptop.
Bowman seems so apropos right now.

WINGS OF CHANGE

What happens when a wounded veteran, a computer genius, and a handful of fiercely independent misfits decide that the best way to change the world is to stop waiting for someone else to do it?

G has spent years flying from a wheelchair, learning to make the sky obey him even when his body won’t. T is a computer wizard with a mysterious past, an enormous extended family, and a talent for turning impossible ideas into working machines.

Together, they build things that shouldn’t exist.

Aircraft that push the limits of what remote flight can do. Technology born in garages and workshops instead of corporate boardrooms. And a community of people who have decided that family isn’t necessarily something you’re born into.

But building extraordinary machines attracts attention.

Soon G, T, and their growing family find themselves caught between government agencies, competing agendas, and people who would very much like to know exactly what they’re capable of. What began as tinkering and experimentation is becoming something far more consequential.

Because when you build something powerful enough to change the rules, eventually somebody comes looking for the keys.
