Let this be the hope we are seeking to revitalize our own vigor to fight against an oligarchical overthrow and remove those who neither earned or deserved these positions in government. These kids are awesome, and their parents have taught them well. Humbled and grateful!

This is so awesome!

And fecking humiliating for Hegseth, who (I suspect) got a lukewarm reception at best, and a *lot* of hard questions about plans for the VA and benefits/support for disabled soldiers and bereaved families 🤬
