I’m the military veteran, anti-fascist, lesbian socialist who Republicans are afraid of. I’m a white woman trying to tear down the patriarchy & white supremacy. Trans & sex worker ally. I follow selectively & block liberally. All thoughts are my own.

And now with Major Hegseth at the helm of the Pentagon, neither does his top military official.
I just hope the military officers have the backbone to stand up for their oath to the Constitution and not to a President.

The Republiklan has done a lot of scaring lately. It’s up to us to teach. They will lose their grip on this country if we teach and confront fear with facts. And once people lose their fear, the Republiklan will lose their authority and their power.

Also, the irony is not lost on me that 47 would rather welcome people back into the fold who refused to follow a lawful order and pay them back pay than keep trans service members who have excelled in their careers.

15,000 trans service members is a lot more than 70 service members but the parallel remains.
I dread what the next step for our country is.

Don’t mistake this for him feeling guilty. This is his ego hurt because she took the spotlight away from him for a brief moment.

That’s not rain. That’s the oligarchy pissing on our heads and telling us it’s rain.

The look on VP Harris’s face. I’m sure she’s probably thought about the idiots who refused to vote for her because this didn’t happen fast enough for them. We all know it wasn’t just because of Gaza that they didn’t vote for her and it still infuriates me and breaks my heart.

Mark my words, if Hegseth is confirmed, the DoD will see a rise in sexual assaults and suicide incidents. That’s not even discussing the potential military crimes and atrocities he might commit at Trumps behest. He is possibly the worst thing that could happen to the DoD.
