Hilarity continues...
France has canceled Starlink for its citizens and will replace it with an inferior French system.
France will provide Ukraine with thousands of receivers for French communication system to replace Starlink. And French intelligence will replace the withdrawn US intelligence based on extensive satellite network with their own intelligence.
Germany realizes that it does not have the transport capability to supply Ukraine without USA material air transport command.
Look at the map -- how are troops going to march from Western Europe to Ukraine? The EU has silenced Hungary, removing its voting rights. Can Slovakia be far behind?
Denmark will give Ukraine all their harpoon missiles and then contract with another Scandinavian country for replacement missiles.
Z keeps backing away from the rare earths deal with the USA because he has ALREADY SIGNED A DEAL WITH ENGLAND GIVING EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS FOR 100 YEARS to Ukrainian rare earth mining.
The barrel of monkeys is rolling 😅🤣😂

Some Aviation? History -
August 2, 1819, Frenchman Louis-Charles Guille became the first person to successfully execute a parachute jump in the United States. He performed this historic feat before thousands of spectators gathered in New York City.
Flight and Descent Details
The Launch: Guille ascended from Vauxhall Gardens in Manhattan inside a basket attached to a large, hydrogen-gas-filled balloon.
The Release: Upon reaching an altitude of roughly 8,000 feet, Guille deliberately cut the cords connecting his basket to the balloon.
The Parachute: As he fell, his umbrella-shaped parachute unfurled. The entire apparatus—basket and all—drifted through the air.

Historical Impact
