Pete Hegseth needs to investigate how the VA manages its drug and alcohol addiction programs from the inside. I am sure he would find they were insufficient.

The problem is not just Senate Republicans, it is all Congresspeople. Art. I, Sec. 8, Cl. 15: Congress has the power to call forth the Militia to execute the laws of the Union and suppress Insurrections. Elon+ and the President are driving an insurrection now. Alert YOUR Congresspeople https://congress.gov

No matter how bad Hegseth was Vance was worse.

What's this I hear about a $33K issue with the IRS?

Drink up drunky.

Of course Hegseth is oblivious to his screw ups. He was well into his cups.

Senate Republicans voted to put in charge of the Pentagon someone who couldn’t be trusted with Fox n Friends weekdays.

In his defense, he was probably drunk when he made that statement.

As an Army brat who spent 3 childhood years in Germany, I wish I could have been there to boo him, too.

BTW, I just sent a comment to MSNBC after noticing that the social-media links they provide do not include Bluesky. Do you have some pressure you can exert there? 🙏

A total embarrassment to our country. Other countries know he’s a drunken lout and a liar.

trumps kryptonite is to find the stupidest weakest follower for each position , no prerequisite except pretend you like trump. Look at transport, look at HHS look at fema, look at Doge , MTG is doing oversight🤣, she can’t even spell it. I shudder to mention the imbecile Kennedy, and on it goes.

Putting Hegseth - let along Vance - into these situations seems more like intentional provocation than a mistake.

If you gave car keys to a child, you still take blame.

Try & imagine in 50, 100 yrs (if the earth still exists) how history will remember this time. And every bit of blame will fall on the (hopefully) long gone GOP. I blame ever last one down to the idiots on my block that voted for him.
