I spent 16 years on active duty in the Army serving six tours overseas, only to come back home and find our country worse off than when I left. While I was risking my life to defend our democracy, politicians like Mike Lawler were making a career out of profiting off of it —

I don’t think a conspiracy is required, just the incentive of short-term profits for owners driving incentives for journalists who want to keep their jobs.

Three years ago, the Free Beacon ironically named me man of the year on their website. "Don’t give up Ben, you have a whole lot of nothing to look forward to," they wrote. This year, I was on a TIME100 list. I would take this moment to tell them how they can suck me: from the back. Thank you.
We don’t know about Ben’s family or personal finances, but we certainly can’t disagree about his lack of skills. But for someone with absolutely no ability, Ben has found the perfect gig.

Don’t give up Ben, you have a whole lot of nothing to look forward to. Only now, when you do nothing, you'll do it as a Free Beacon Man of the Year.I win.

remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

Let's hear him asked: - Why do you think Super Intelligence is better? - Do you realize you repeat yourself all the time? - You have said that the war with Iran is over 63 times over the past 7 months. Why is this time different? - How much money have you made in crypto? - When was Tiffany born?

But their reporting is what normalized it. For a decade they have breathlessly repeated and then “debated” his every tweet as if it were a serious policy speech—inviting Trump-aligned professional normalizers to comment. People with “access” ask him stupid questions. Meh.

"For decades, we've provided election coverage that's based on in-depth political reporting by an experienced team of journalists backed by commentary from political leaders. But now we're throwing that aside so we can tell you what some of the most irredeemable uninformed gamblers are guessing."
