Who discusses their religious beliefs on a job interview?

Especially to work for an organization that is supposed to honor the separation between church and state?

The GOP is really dismantling any sort of credibility they had left with this, and it will only get worse with RFK, Patel and Gabbard.

You mean Mr. "Trump did all the necessary vetting"? The senator from Alabama who actually lives in Florida? That guy?

Right, win at all costs.

Even if in the end you bear no semblance to the nation/constitutional democracy you were supposed to be defending.

Thank God there are a handful of female senators. They get to the truth, and what matters

Which is not Jesus or thinking it is cool to crawl around in the mud with a rifle . Those faux macho R’s missed the point of “A Few Good Men.”

He is the picture of unqualified. Should he be confirmed, though, it hardly matters. Trump will fire him within a year at the outside, probably closer to a matter of months.


Do you think Trump even cares enough to bother firing people this time?

Yes there is a big push to change the rules of engagement(ROE) to match Russia and Israel’s actions. No more minimizing civilian casualties. All civilians would be considered active combat participants. US servicemen will be ordered to kill helpless women and children. Fun times to be in the military.

I just heard that! He finds it too “constraining.”


He doesn't see this as making us the bad guys. This is crazy.

No one can control how their tax dollars are spent sadly.

Are you suggesting there will be a draft? Will it be gender neutral and include women?
