Hegseth cares more about waist sizes, testosterone and facial hair than getting us out of a stupid dangerous war where he is endangering our military and busting the budget. Hey Pete, your job is not central casting for some blockbuster movie where you are the Star.

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.

While I'm enjoying the humiliation justifiably being heaped on Senator Eric Schmitt, I don't don't think enough mockery is being directed at his accomplice, Senator Kennedy, the Cornpone Clown, with this stupidly victorious expression as he smugly holds up the ridiculous "evidence."
