🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

Hegseth is too busy flying around doing push-up photo ops and repeating “warfighting” and “lethality” a thousand times to have time for all this other stuff. He’s maxed out his ability doing that.
