Eagerly for the next email detailing a strategy shift. I'm guessing they will be soliciting money to make a donation to the White House ballroom or to buy DJT's crypto now that they've lost their ICAO nominee. Whatever it takes! Just keep sending in those checks.......

Thats the demo. Vacuum every nook and cranny for every penny for the “vacuum every nook and cranny” crowd. Match made in heaven.

The unwavering support by EPAS/LEPF members is starting to wane.
An article was posted about the pilot shortage which many commented that the pilot shortage is over. Never had I seen someone disagree without being questioned of their loyalty or removed.

Then there were two back to back posts about the movement losing momentum acknowledging congress hasn’t made any moves, their supporters in congress are leaving office, and that ICAO didn’t help.
There was acceptance that this isn’t happening anytime soon.
Usually it didn’t matter how outlandish the claim, everyone chimed in to support it. I didn’t think they would ever come around to it with the cult like fervor and content moderation.

They didn’t even ask for money…

Good to hear. Hopefully Alpa won’t have to waste more time and resources defending a majority of membership’s wishes and can focus on protecting certificates, negotiating contracts, and promoting safety objectives.

I was soooooooo tempted to comment on that second flavor post about promises from Blackburn that went unfulfilled... Something like, "You think maaaayyyybe she was just telling you what you wanted to hear to get you to stroke that check? Like any politician will do?"

Humans are incredibly susceptible to hearing what they want to hear...

Someone with some meme skills needs to post a meme about the total meltdown on the LEPR FB page. Lots of guys finally realizing they’ve been swindled out of thousands of dollars by the so called leaders. It’s both comical and sad at the same time. Worst part is the rationalization of the “leaders” asking them to keep up the fight and keep the faith.

I was wrong. The new new strategy is to crash Bedminster and appeal to Trump personally, apparently.

He melted down about his $4500 "contribution" being wasted. Now his path to raising the age apparently runs through his landlord's "personal relationship" with someone who knows Trump. This may be the breakthrough they've been hoping for!

I wonder how long it's going to take for all the suckers to realize there is zero transparency or accountability for the money they have sent in. They have likely been bankrolling untold numbers of car payments, mistress's cosmetic procedures, crypto speculation, etc. I bet only a small fraction of their "donations" have actually gone to the "cause." This should be entertaining to watch unravel.
