Yo DOGE idiots, the GlobeMaster C-17 used to transport 104 individuals deported to India cost $28K/hr to fly. At 35 hrs round trip for this military transport, it will cost US taxpayers $980K. Have you considered using Expedia? So much for “efficiency”. Dolts. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Pete Hegseth has no shortage of problems besetting right-wing populists in general. But one problem unique to Hegseth among Trump’s appointees so far—and the reason historians of the Crusades have been getting calls from reporters—involves his tattoos.
