Colorado Springs Gazette Covers USAFA’s Denial of Accommodation for Muslim Cadets During Ramadan After MRFF Decries Academy’s Decision
As MRFF reported last week, the U.S. Air Force Academy has once again displayed its blatant disregard for non-Christian cadets, scheduling its CULEX (culminating exercise), an extremely physically demanding multi-day training exercise, during Ramadan, forcing Muslim cadets to either choose between their religion and training or risk their health and safety by attempting to complete the training while fasting from both food and water.
As one Muslim Air Force Academy Cadet wrote to MRFF:
“The conflict with Ramadan is substantial. As fasting cadets, we would be required to engage in hours of intense physical activity without food or water throughout the day, placing us at increased risk of dehydration, heat exhaustion, and decreased cognitive function. Furthermore, the limited rest periods during CULEX make it nearly impossible to maintain proper nutrition and hydration in the small windows between sunset and sunrise, further compounding the health risks. This creates an unfair and hazardous situation for Muslim cadets who wish to observe their religious duties while also fulfilling their training responsibilities.

I like how the article pointed out how shitty of an org MRFF. They are correct
What specific part of “the article pointed out how shitty of an org MRFF” allegedly is?
Ok. I had this situation as a Flying Training Squadron Commander. These students are in “traveling” status (according to my Muslim liason officer) and thus were not bound by the restrictions in the Koran concerning Ramadan.
God says let your non prof organization NOT be as shitty as thy mailbox.
Not what I heard God say. Think he said you sound like a man with a paper asshole flapping in the breeze!
Stefan Eisen, perhaps their Muslim chaplain could get these cadets together and explain that to them . . . .
What’s that? There isn’t a Muslim chaplain at the AFA? Maybe that’s why they hadn’t heard that explanation.
Muslimtoff, you wrote, “God says let your non prof organization NOT be as shitty as thy mailbox.”
That would be where in the King James Version of the Qu’ran? I don’t recall reading anything about “non-profit organizations” of “mailboxes” in the KJV of the Christian Bible. And I don’t recall the professor from whom I took a graduate level course on sociology of Islam — himself a Muslim — mentioning anything about such a verse in Qu’ran either.
Trumpie and the Troopies are yelling to the rooftops, defending Elonia’s massive firing of federal workers and tanking of the economy, that there is massive fraud in the government! Damn, sure glad they’re there!
But ….. it’s a Republican government? And …. since fraud is a crime, they’ve now got thousands of indictments for this criminal activity. Oh, wait a minute, they don’t have ANY indictments for these “crimes?” Well, what the fuck, over? Nobody going to jail? But they’re crimes! You said so yourself. Massive fraud I think you called it.
The Law and Order party say they’ve found massive “FRAUD,” but aren’t bringing anyone to justice? No indictments for these lawbreakers that are stealing from the American people?
100s of billions in fraud, according to Trumpie and Elonia. C’mon Donnie, when are these folks going to go to jail?
Could it be that the only “fraud” taking place is you continuing to sell meme coins, hats, and citizenship Gold Cards from the oval in your side hustles?
The White House running on natural gas to run those lights!
What happened to “all hell breaking out in Gaza” if all the hostages weren’t released? So, you orchestrated a cease fire (kudos), but now you’re going to tear it up? Hamas following your agreement but you just can’t stand that they’re not getting bombed with 2000 lb made-in-the-USA bombs? And where did that $100 million worth of condoms go that you sent Hamas? Y’all using them in the Republican Party? Matt Gaetz get a few?
What’s up Donnie? You losing it in your old age?
And what happened to the tariffs on Canada and Mexico? Now you’re doing a carve out for the automotive sector! Damn bro – looking kind of weak right about now!
And now you’ve invited Zelensky back to the White House because you didn’t get your natural resources deal, after you ran him out of there? Goddamn Bubba! You need to change your meds bro!
Isn’t there a White House doctor that can get you on some better meds?
And what the fuck is going on with the stock market? Seems like it’s going in the wrong direction. Shouldn’t it be going up? You know, doing the “staple genus” thing?
I’m sure glad you’re there though. You got grocery prices down on day one, er, I mean, I think I got it wrong. Was it day 1,000? Fuck, I forget now.
Elonia says Social Security is a “Ponzi scheme?” Fuck, if I’d have known that, I wouldn’t have paid into a known government created Ponzi scheme! But I’m confused. The government created a Ponzi scheme and made everyone pay into it? And, you ARE the government right? But now you want to get rid of it so does that mean everyone gets their money back? With interest? Shouldn’t that be another criminal indictment? Oh, wait a minute, I guess you’d have to indict – fuck, who would you indict, the Government? Would that be like indicting yourself? So fucking confusing man!
Fuck it! Indict Elon? And whoever is in charge. Oops, that would be you right? Maybe indict Congress?
What the fuck happened to Greenland? I thought we were taking that over. Fuck, I bought a ski suit! Was hoping to get a new place to ski! Do a little ice fishing.
Damn bro! Ain’t looking too good for the Waffle House!
And when the fuck are we gonna attack Iran? I want to get one of those Persian carpets for cheap. I hear they’re pretty good.
Prolly ought to get those meds changed. Maybe get them in liquid form. I hear the come in impeachment flavor!
Trumpie’s top trade advisor, Peter Navarro, has finally explained it. I couldn’t understand what was going on with the 25% tariffs on Canada, who I always thought were some pretty cool folks, you know, kind of minding their own business hey, very polite, seem to be nice folks.
But Peter Navarro has finally explained it. It IS about fentanyl but, more importantly, he says that Canada has been fully taken over by the Mexican drug cartels!
That’s the part that we didn’t know!
I mean, who knew? Looking at Trudeau, I never would have guessed that he’s secretly in a Mexican gang! Or, for that matter, any of the other Canadian talking heads you see on TV.
Them Goddamn Mexicans are some sneaky fuckers!
Thank God we got Trumpie and the Troopers running this country! Can you imagine if the Mexican cartels took over this country like they have Canada? You’d probably have a lot of people dying of fentanyl!
Man, I sure am glad we’ve got more than one staple genus up there looking out for us like Peter Navarro is!
Isn’t Navarro a Hispanic name? Well, that’s a good thing because it means he really knows what he’s talking about when it comes to the cartels!
Boy, who would have thought? I never would have dreamed that Canada is being run by Mexican cartels!
So glad we got Peter Navarro as national trade advisor! This boy is definitely on his game!
Howard Lutnick, Trumpie’s Secretary of Commerce, says that tariffs are going to completely do away with federal income taxes! Woohoo.
I wouldn’t know what to do with myself! These folks ARE “staple genuses,” no doubt about it! Think about it, All these years of American greatness and nobody came up with the idea of doing away with federal taxes using tariffs?
They really are playing one dimensional checkers. Wait a minute, think I got that wrong, meant to say two dimensional.
Lutnick enthusiastically, exuberantly, talks about the “External Revenue Service” doing away with federal taxes. He says that’s what Trumpie is going to do to make this country great!
Fuck! Can’t wait! To think, no more income taxes from the deep state!
Sure am glad Lutnick is up there helping with the tariff machine! Don’t know what we’d do without him!
Besides ..,,. prosper?
The spin continues with the MAGAT talking heads saying that Trumpie wants to make America the manufacturing super power of the world!
Sounds great doesn’t it? Except that it ain’t gonna happen. I think Trumpie missed that class in economics 101 at Wharton. Either that or Wharton’s business school’s got some problems?
So, you know, tariffs! But he’s begging Canada not to do retaliatory tariffs! Literally called Trudeau this morning begging him to just go with the USMCA, you know, the agreement that replaced NAFTA that everyone was abiding by before Trumpie started attacking Canada?
So which is it Donnie? You said Canada has treated us so unfairly and has been taking advantage of us under the agreement you put together but now you want Canada to just follow the agreement they were already following before you slapped tariffs on them? Awwww, poor Donnie!
Sucks to be such a staple genus!
What does it have to do with Ramadan?
The U.S. is in a permanent financial Ramadan – you know, Trumpie getting in touch with his spiritual financial self, a period of inner reflection with Russian attributes!
As he says, “there’s going to be some pain!” For you! Forever! Bit late in coming but Orwellian double-speak on full display!
Drink up MAGA! A little more trickle down never hurt anybody. Thoughts and prayers!
Trumpie putting auto tariffs on hold until, April the 2nd! OK, Canada, you get a reprieve, but only for the auto sector, and only until April the 2nd! Because we’re tough Proud Boyz in the Waffle House!
Oh, wait a minute, I mean, Canada, we’re going to follow the agreement I put in place, the USMCA, but just for cars! The rest of the tariffs still stand! We’ll show them nasty Canadians we mean busi, er um, we mean ….. something. I’m not sure what we mean but it’s something! “It’s going to be the likes nobody has ever seen! Whatever it is! But you better listen! I’m not bluffing this time! You better be holding something better than 7-deuce!”
You MAGA morons voted for the biggest loser on the face of the planet! Everything he touches turns to shit! To include your lives! Hide and watch the “finding out” unfolding right before your Putin-aligned eyes! Throw in a little Marjorie-Taylor and Lauren Boebert pulling Quinn’s Gallagher and you got herself a real party going on!
Hey, anybody got any eggs? Been trying to find some of them “Trumpie Golden Eggs,” or maybe a MAGA goose that laid them? Can’t find them. I think the Haitians ate ‘em all!
Sprinkle them with some Christian Nationalist goodness, mmmm, mmmmm. Doesn’t get any better!
The fucking Canadians saying they ain’t stopping on their retaliatory tariffs! What’s wrong with them assholes? Trumpie telling them he was just kidding. He was just playing TV personality. They’re s’pose to know that! When he says he’s going to send the military to Mexico, he means the “milled-tary,” it’s just a trade term for grain! For fuck same, what’s wrong with them? Trumpie knows words, lots of words. OK, OK, they’re two syllable words, but he knows lots of them. Throw in some accordion hands, everyone should know he’s just kidding!
You know, when he yells at Zelensky, Zelensky all of a sudden wants to start World War Two! Wait a minute, didn’t we already have that one? Whatever he’s trying to start, it just shows he can’t take a little yelling at by me and eye-liner couch humper! All he had to do was give us all his natural resources and, in turn, we’d let him have some fried chicken at the Waffle House! Fucking Ukrainians!
But, back to Canada. He was even, a lot of people don’t know this, gonna give them 2 million Palestinians to work on their chicken farms! Fuck sake, we need eggs down here! Joe-the-plumber bustin my balls up here in Washington, says he needs protein and can’t afford meat right now, all the brown people left so prices went up. Goddamit! I told the country you can’t rely on Hispanics. The only brown-skinned people that are worth anything are those H1B Indian immigrants Elon has imported!
Happy financial Ramadan! Remember – no eggs!
There’ll be some pain but, you know, fentanyl!
OK, finally got the real story after arduous internet searches. Jesus Christ! Was hard to find! But I found it!
Trumpie is giving Canada and Mexico another 30 days reprieve on tariffs for cars because the big three automaker CEOs, you know, Ford, GM, and Stellantis, called Donnie and said, “hey, you know we’ve got Muslims working on our assembly lines in Canada and Mexico, and it is, after all, Ramadan!”
“You’re a religious man. Can’t you put the tariffs on hold till after Ramadan?”
So, I was wrong. Trumpie is doing it out of deference to Ramadan. Well, that was a very Christian thing to do, gotta give him that!
Now, if we could just get the Air Force Academy to ……..
Two Corinthians 4:4 – “The Devil actively participates in blinding the minds of those who don’t believe in tariffs, to keep them from coming to faith in the actions of the Waffle House.”
He did go on to say, “This is a favor to our Muslim brothers and sisters, but I really mean it this time! You got one month to move those auto factories to the U.S.!”
Another catastrophe averted! Whew! Had me worried. Staple Genus!
Damn, the DOW has lost about 3,000 points since Trumpie took office! Yikes! Whats going on? It’s not the tariffs. The Waffle House said it was Joe Biden! I believe them!
Most folks don’t know it but Joe Biden’s dementia has created a Rain Man syndrome in part of his brain that is giving him superior math skills and he’s been, secretly, manipulating the stock market ever since Donnie took office, trying to make him look bad!
He even cut Tesla stock by over 40%!
That “sleepy Joe” stuff is just a ruse. He’s been leading us on to make us think he doesn’t know what he’s doing and has been manipulating the markets the whole time!
He’s hurting a lot of Christians out there that have their life savings tied up in 401Ks!
Just because he lost the election and now he’s pissed off and causing the market to tank!
Damn Democrats! You saw how he manipulated the Super Bowl before last letting the Kansas City Chiefs win!
Donnie, you need to do something aboot that, as they would say in Canada! Joe Biden’s gonna tank the whole economy and put us into a depression if this keeps up!
And then they’ll blame you for it! Damn libs. I thought we were going to own the libs. What’s going on? Why are you letting them do this?
C’mon Donnie. Do some of that “Art of the Deal’ stuff!
By the way, got any eggs? Trying to make a cake for memaw. She just got kicked out of a nursing home – Medicaid ran out, it’s her birthday.
10 percent correction was absolutely necessary. Load up, rinse and repeat.
Twumpie tawiffs – He’s already pulled them back. That 7 – deuce he was holding, yeah, Trudeau and Sheinbaum called his bluff! His poker tell so easy – comes in the form of the odor after he shit his pants!
US auto CEOs cried like babies and Donnie says, “OK, OK. We’ll hold off for another 30 days. But you better tell them April 2nd. That’s it! Where’s my fireman hat?”
Treasury says “we’re gonna go through a detox period!” Meaning – recession. (stagflation – Obama’s fault). These boys can put together some word salad, got to give them that!
So fucking funny watching the clown car with fogged over windows, struggling to get the sun roof open so they can breathe, Donnie stench in the leather!
Saw a graphic that completely encapsulates Trumpie’s, speaking of rinse and repeat, decisional making processes, if you can call it that.
1. Make a really stupid decision
2. Something really bad happens
3. Convince MAGA morons the problem is now magically solved
4. Reverse my stupid decision
5. Get out of town and go play golf
“I want tawiffs! I want tawiffs!”
Trumpie now threatening attacks, again, on the Palestinians, “I really really really mean it this time,” giving Israel another $3 Billion to keep Net-and-Yahoo out of jail, while at the same time telling his debased they should keep chickens in their back yards to combat the high price of eggs! But, and there’s always a but, white eggs only!
Now there’s another Trumpie recipe for you MAGA. Don’t worry about avian flu. RFK Jr is on it. He’ll let you know which chicken pluckers to buy from! He’s kind of busy right now with measles but he’ll get back to you. By the way, he says to NOT get your kids vaccinated, you know, MMR. It’s all a hoax and will give them brain worms. I think he still has his, but it’s dormant. Or is it?
His new tawiffs on Canada and Mexico? He “weally, weally, weally means it this time! April the 2nd!
Trump is to leadership what a toilet is to a septic tank.
So, the Office of Personnel Management sends out guidance to agencies saying, “the agency needs to determine whether the performance of probationary employees is in the best interests of the government.”
The guidance ought to be, “If you, as a manager, have hired employees without their positions being of benefit to the government, then we’re going to fire YOU for gross negligence and incompetency and hold you financially liable for wasteful expenditure of public money!”
The DOD, for example, uses what’s called the Program Objective Memorandum (POM) process for resource allocation and planning that includes the current year, budget year, and out years for programmatic budgetary planning, to include force structure (personnel).
From congressional concurrence as part of the President’s budget, a Table Of Distribution and Allowances (TDA), for civilian personnel and non-combat units, vacancies and hiring actions take place to support the mission.
All that to say that if tge probationary employees being fired were not required, they wouldn’t have been hired in the first place!
Implicit in the so-called waste, is the ineptitude of the agencies, the Congress, and the President! Of course, with Schittsinpants, his middle name is ineptitude, clueless about how the federal government works. He thinks the DOD is one of his play toys that he uses when he wears his fireman hat and plays “Army!”
The main benefit to working for the federal government is “stability.” Or, used to be. That has been damaged beyond repair now with douchebag Elon and his Dojo parade of 19 year olds gutting the federal work force.
What most people don’t know is that the United States military, the most powerful military on the planet, CANNOT operate without civilians! Period! Full stop! Especially during times of war! There were more civilians (contractors and federal civil servants) deployed in our last twenty years of war than the entirety of military personnel deployed! Fact!
Little things like logistics, maintenance and repair – across all weapon systems, the responsibility for readiness of those weapon systems in the hands of CIVILIANS!
With stability gone in federal service, who the fuck would want to work for the Government? The damage is far beyond just the “savings” being made to fund tax cuts for the rich, it’s a decimation of the entire system, leaving a military that is less ready, less capable, and less likely to achieve mission success!
Have at it MAGA! Got what you asked for. Drink up! Golden Showers! A little “trickle down” coming your way!
The stupidity is palpable.
In deference to Ramadan, Canada is pulling all American booze of the shelves! Wait a minute, did I get that right? Oh no, sorry, Muslim’s don’t drink anyway, well, except in Saudi Arabia. Them boys in Saudi sure do love them some Johnny Walker!
The Kentucky Distillers Association crying that Trumpie is killing them! Exports to Canada on the order of $2.2 Billion and, well, um, you know, tariffs!
Just down the road in Tennessee, Jack Daniel’s wailing about how pulling all U.S. booze off the shelves in Canada is worse than a tariff!
When asked for comment, the Canadian Prime Minister, er, I mean, Governor – wait a minute, I’m confused. Whatever he is he said, “Fuck Around and Find Out!” Oooops! Damn free-health-care Canadian liberals won’t even drink our booze now! So unfair!
Kind of sucks to be in a Red State that makes booze right now. Ouch! Enough to drive you to drinking!
Course, Donnie doesn’t drink, so not sure what he chases that Adderall with, Diet Coke? Is it Diet Coke? Eggnog? Sorry, can’t get eggs right now. Must be Diet Coke.
Fuck Around and Find Out! Can you imagine that kind of language coming out of the mouth of a leader of a neighboring country? I mean, if it were that dictator in Ukraine that started a war with Russia that said it, well, par for the course for him to talk bad about our friends in Russia, Donnie being a Comrade an all.
Not really that big of a deal. Just lay folks off in Kentucky and Tennessee until Canada starts buying US booze again. They’ll be down at the Piggly Wiggly stocking shelves when you need them to come back to work.
Wait a minute, I’m just reading that when you lose your job you lose your health insurance? Is that true? In America? The richest country on the planet? Naaawwww. I must be reading some fake news. That can’t be right.
Well, you can always go to the emergency room. Or maybe get some of that cheap Obama care? Better hurry though. I think they said they’re getting rid of that too!
Or, I have an idea. Move to Canada hey? :-)
Too funny! So much humor in 2025 with Daffy Donald running the show.
Elon with the chainsaw, mimicking cutting federal jobs! That’s some funny shit! And that tech support T-shirt he wears in the oval. It really brings professionalism to a new level! Designer label of course. And his four year old kid telling Donnie, “You’re not the President.”
Fucking hilarious! SNL’s got material for years!
That’s pretty insulting.
BidensDEI, would you kindly explain your post to me? I’m afraid I didn’t get the “10 percent correction was absolutely necessary” part.
As for the “Load up, rinse and repeat” part, it sounds like it’s laundry day. Be sure to separate your lights from your darks — like God did in Genesis.
Breaking news, God created light before he created light. Wait a minute, confusing my self again. He created light on Day 1, then created the source of light on Day 4? OK, he created light twice. I’m guessing Day 4 was light Lite. So, rinse twice?
Fuck it. Too complicated. Going for a snack. A Doge bar, you know, taking a chainsaw to those calories!
Damn, Christian Nationalists took another beating today, DOW down another 1000 points!
So, the ONLY part of the stock market you have access to, for most Americans, is the 401K programs that you ride along with hoping for some retirement “savings.” Unless, of course, you’re in a Roth. Most older folks in a 401K, younger folks lean toward Roth, but both, in most cases, participate in equities.
And ……. damn Donnie. Whatcha doing there bruh? What, down 4000 points since you took office? Man, you used to remind us everyday about how good the market was, attributed to ……. you?
Haven’t heard squeak out of you on the market bruh. You taking credit?
That recession you’re creating? You know, firing all those government employees that were part of the tax base? But only in Republican MAGA land does reducing government revenue increase government revenue! That’s sum hilarious shit right there!
I call it the “Laughter Curve!” Too funny. We’re waaayyy up on the laughter curve bro!
But, you know, you said that on day one you were gonna tank, er, I mean, lower prices. Damn, almost said tank the markets. Ooops!
But hey, can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs! Problem is, you can’t get any! Eggs that is.
What does it have to do with Christians? Well, we ARE coming up on Easter! You know, when we celebrate the resurrection of a period of inquiry and …. Sir Isaac Newton? OK, I made that part up – fake news!
But, if you’re in a 401K, and you jump out of stocks, you’ll “lock in” your losses! Just sayin. Kind of like being on the Trump submersible hearing hull-popping noises and, trying to decide when you say, “hey, wait a minute!”
I mean, you knew he bankrupted two casinos before you voted for him the first time. How the fuck do you bankrupt a business where people, literally, walk through the door and throw money at you? MST have been the Trump steaks they were serving!
But you ain’t sen the wreck we ‘bout to get into!
The real problem is, it can’t be stopped! You know, things in motion tend to stay in motion. In this case, tariffs coming, according to Trumpie, on April the 2nd, a boost to that already in motion, an acceleration in the descent of the Trump submersible! Damn. Those hull-popping noises are weally scawy!
Wonder how he’s going to spin it when he doesn’t put those tariffs in place?
The only go-to spin he has is, “I told you there was going to be some disruptions, some pain. We’re rebuilding our country and it’s going to be Great Again!”
The question is, how far will you ride it before you tap out? What’s that? We’re only 1,000 meters from the Titanic? Not sure if I heard that right, you know, all those popping noises! Did you say 1,000 meters?
Will know more on Friday when the government either, shuts down, or they pass a CR. Either way, not looking too good!
Drink up MAGA! Remember to tap out before you pass out! I’ll let you know when.
Oh, um, uh, yeah, that would be right about uh, – Now?
Don’t wait for your social security checks not to show up in your bank accounts! Just the late charges alone gonna eat your lunch, you know, rent, mortgage, food. Elon’s got his fingers on the treasury key board! You think he’ll get those Ebola workers re-hired? I hear you can get a real bargain on used Teslas right about now, Tesla stock down over 50%. Poor Elon. Such a good Christian tree trimmer. So sad. Two of his rockets blew up? Damn bro! Ouch! Feel sorry for him. But hey, he’s rooting out all that fraud in government that nobody’s been indicted for. But you know there’s fraud, 30% of them veterans! You know, suckers and losers! Well, according to Trump.
The biggest Christian of them all, Donnie Trump, you know, Two Corinthians 5:14-16, “among you will walk, with laden bowels, the truest Christian of them all. Ye shall know him by his fair-haired comb-over and book of duties. He will release on the most supplicant a fealty duty, recompense for ego’s dowery.”
So there you have it. It’s in the good book. I know, many interpretations, but the most promising is the tariff duties Trump claims “will create jobs like we have never seen before!” Think he said that in the joint session of Congress where they kicked Al Green out? He got lots of applause over that one – actually, both of them. But Al Green was raising Cain, or was it cane? Kind of reminded me of MTG and Blowbert during the State of the Union. Very disruptive.
But, all we have to do is wait until the first Friday of April and we’ll see more jobs than we have ever seen before!
So, April 2nd the 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada and April the 4th, the jobs report for March, which should include the jobs created by the Chinese tariffs and the first Friday in May will show all the jobs created with the Canada and Mexico tariffs!
Woohoo! Can’t wait! Those fired government employees can prolly get one of them “Staple Genus” jobs!
