One senator with an ounce of integrity could have prevented the tie-breaker vote that approved Hegseth’s appointment as Secretary of Defense. Sexual assault is a problem in the US Armed Forces, and this is the guy who will be in charge of Defense. Write to your senator, make it a habit.

Per Executive Order all persons in the US are now declared to be female. By that logic all marriages are same-sex. Thanks! Things are going to get interesting.
