Instead of Doing Anything Valuable, the DOJ Is Trying to Recast Richard Nixon as the Victim of Watergate

Now is the moment for us to reach down and pick up the power we have as citizens and rebuke these abuses so decisively that no president will try anything like this again for centuries.

Hegseth has a searing resentment of all the officers who called him on his incompetence, laziness, and just general bad attitude. Just a very bad soldier and a drunk who failed to meet all expectations and is determined to destroy the military hierarchy that called him out for the useless man he is.

The fact is Trump not only lost his war but it's the biggest L the US has taken at least since Vietnam. Our bases are destroyed & abandoned, Iran is emboldened, China is toying w/ us. Hegseth & co want to move on to culture war slop, but they got routed & we'll be dealing w/repercussions for decades

The problem with Hegseth's plan to fire everybody with a more successful military career than his own is that there'd be nobody left.

holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

extremely weird shit during the Jack Smith hearing -- Sen. Eric Schmitt's team briefly displays a poster board that Schmitt claims contains evidence Smith committed perjury, but then Schmitt's team takes it down before anybody can read it and refuses to show Smith what it says

Image captured from Buster Keaton's One Week short (1920), public domain.  Buster and his wife (Sybil Seely) tried to haul their new house to a new location, but the car failed while the house was on a railroad track.  And then the train came...

A locomotive smashes through the house as Buster and his wife (Sybil Seely) stand out of the way.

In a normal administration counterintelligence agents at the FBI would be investigating this photo. In this administration, the FBI director is in the photo.
Michael Weiss: Why, that’s Ali Abdelaziz is on the far left. Manages a lot of Russian, Belarusian and Chechen MMA fighters including Khamzat Chimaev, who is close to Kadyrov. Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence.
