Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

We should all applaud Judge Ho’s appointment of former Bush SG Paul Clement to present a perspective distinct from those of the indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the Trumpservient DOJ prosecutor Emil Bove. Well played! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/n...

The National Park Service fired many of its park rangers as part of a reduction in the federal work force. Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about the cuts and share their love of the Park Service. “It’s scary, but it was the right thing to do.”

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Dear World, I apologize. We have a Russian asset in the White House. Trump stands with Putin. He doesn’t stand with Ukraine, NATO or the free world. Many, many, many of us Americans apologize profusely for this. Sincerely, A Ukraine-Supporting, NATO-Supporting American

I was just an Education Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under G.H.W. Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I think I might say something?

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.
