“The Pentagon is in ‘total chaos’ and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is unlikely to remain in his role, according to its former top spokesperson, who painted a scene of dysfunction, backstabbing and continuous missteps at the highest levels of the department.”

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

You gotta hand it to Pete Hegseth: He’s one arrogant dumb SOB.

Somehow the Times managed to get four sources on a group chat that had twelve of the people closest to Hegseth. Literally everyone must hate this guy.

How many of our soldiers has this incompetent bastard put in danger? If you claim to “support our troops,” how can you support keeping Hegseth in charge of the Department of Defense?

When you put the world’s most powerful military in the hands of a drunken fascist dummy like Pete Hegseth, don’t be shocked by his grotesque incompetence. Get Hegseth the fuck out of there already.

Is this bad? It sure seems bad. I mean, his barkeep must be heartbroken at having been left out. The poor mixologist got nothing but a little coin here and there, not a really cool tip like a state military secret. Always be nice to your bartender. You never know what he’ll put in your glass.

Now we know why those three Pentagon guys were fired recently -- Hegseth felt they were the ones who leaked this story to the NY Times.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

"If you don't stand for something, Burr, what will you fall for?" Van Hollen is right. We've gotta stop trying to focus group everything. Be organic and lead. Do what is right, always. And fight for it.

Sen. Van Hollen and his meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador is all over the news and social media. Joe Rogan is talking about the value of due process, wrongly denied to Abrego Garcia. Thankfully the “just poll, then do what’s already popular, never try to lead or shape opinion” crowd lost.

So the White House story is now: “We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.” The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Reminds me of all the Republicans in Congress who celebrated the Fourth of July in Moscow. Except they were there to celebrate Putin and never updated their plaques. Chris Van Hollen traveled to save a constituent. These assholes won’t even show up at a townhall in their district

Vance getting embarrassed in front of the Ohio State football team and ghosted by the Pope in the same week is almost too much beauty to take in at once.

Vance is the kind of pompous phony Catholic I used to encounter at Mass all the time, who'd express fake expressions of piety while judging everyone else who didn't believe what they did. Vance wouldn't know compassion if it bit him in the ass.

Van Hollen: "As the federal courts have said, we need to bring Mr. Abrego Garcia home to protect his constitutional rights to due process...If you deny the constitutional rights of one man, you threaten the constitutional rights and due process for everyone else in America."

Jesus. No one's asserting that MS-13 isn't bad. They're asserting that Abrego Garcia didn't have anything to do with it. This stunt not only doesn't provide that evidence, it pretty much proves they don't have it. Why else would they go to such lengths to muddy the waters like this?
