Yes, Pete Hegseth is so incompetent that our troops go without necessary medical care, but at least they are called "warriors" now while they go untreated. So it all evens out . . .

Hegseth also removed the olive branches, a traditional symbol of wishing peace, from the Department of Defense seal. This, in addition to changing the name to "The Department of War," shows the dangerous belligerency that comes from appointing a frat bro who values testosterone over statesmanship.

On what Trump said last night about letting Iran blow up Los Angeles or San Diego: Sure, don’t be outraged if you don’t believe it warrants outrage, but don’t just say he misspoke or was “sloppy” with his wording. Don’t do that. Trump stopped deserving getting any benefit of the doubt ages ago.
