Good. Now get rid of the chronic alcoholics like Hegseth next. I’m sure there’s more than 1000.

He's been confirmed. He's attacking DEI, ESG, wokeness and the DNC agenda. I couldn't be happier!

And the DUI hire is also a plagiarist. But relative to the DUIs, the accusations of domestic violence, and the disregard for national security law endangering our troops as he shared war plans on Signal, I guess plagiarism is small potatoes.

Yes. To summarize: Plagiarism is the absolute worst - you are fired! Unless you acritically support Netanyahu acritically, or are part of the family family, in which case plagiarism is a human error.


Plagiarism speaks to character— lack of conscientiousness, lack of care, sloppiness, and likely not too bright.




Do you realize Joe Biden had to drop out of the 1987 presidential race because he was found to have plagiarized and when cornered, admitted to it?

What are we getting for the billions in military hardware you left behind to the Taliban????


You can't have a substantive discussion -- just us vs them. You have government and policy confused with team sports.


It's always us vs then when you're trying to have productive discussion with the hyper-partisan Fox News/MSNBC idiots.

So, you also feel that way about Biden then, correct?

Yes, we do but Biden is retired, long gone from politics forever. Hegseth is still politically relevant, unfortunately.

Pete's book burning party continues apace:

Pentagon orders military academies to review books for possible removal

The Pentagon has ordered all military academies to identify and remove books from their libraries that deal with issues such as race, gender ideology, and other “divisive concepts” that are now considered “incompatible with the department’s core mission,” according to a memo obtained by CNN.

[...]

In a separate memo released on Friday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth also said there will be “no consideration of race, ethnicity, or sex” in admissions to US military academies, which will focus admissions “exclusively on merit.” The memo ordered the service academies to rank candidates, starting with the 2026 admissions cycle, “by merit-based scores,” accepting the highest-ranking candidates in each nomination category.


If jobs were offered solely on merit, Hegseth wouldn't be SecDef now.

It's not a checkmate, it's just a other log on the fire of right wing intellectual and moral bankruptcy.

Well put.

In other words, everyone already knew he was a clown and a fraud.


At this point, there isn't anyone in the Trump administration who hasn't been exposed as a clown and a fraud.
