Three stars on his epaulettes. A combat infantry badge. Two airborne badges. A Ranger tab on his shoulder earned under fire. And he's honor bound to obey orders from a five-time draft dodging #POTUS and an inebriated #SecDef? Enough. Get the #GOP out of our military command. #VoteBlueEveryElection

Trump and Hegseth are gutting the #USMilitary. Why? When experienced personnel are pushed out, readiness suffers and national security is put at risk. This demands answers now. #USMilitary #MilitaryReadiness #NationalSecurity #Defense #Troops #Pentagon apnews.com/article/hegs...

Hegseth is set to announce more cuts to the military's general and admiral ranks
According to Pentagon officials, Hegseth will direct all the military services to double the 10% reduction that he ordered last spring to the roughly 800 flag and general officer positions, making it ...

An unfathomable clean air act violation. I worked in this exact field for years, including in oil and gas, and i still can't get over how wanton and obvious this crime is. Just stunning
xAI's unpermitted turbine emissions would dwarf federal permit thresholds
Potential annual emissions, in short tons, from 30 unpermitted turbines at xAI's Southaven, MS facility

Chart: Potential emissions at 80% load
Nitrogen oxide: 2,474
Carbon monoxide: 4,065
A vertical dotted line indicates the Federal permit threshold.

Note: Federal permit threshold of 100 short tons/year is based on emissions at 100% capacity. Emissions shown at 80% capacity reflect the lower end of typical operating levels for gas turbines, according to the EPA.

He said the facility would be on par with the top 25 U.S. gas plants for nitrogen oxide emissions, citing EPA data for actual emissions.

The whole world is watching what the #GOP now calls patriotism. They're comparing the violent turnout of #January6 with the sparse crowds at the #Freedom2026 Great American State Fair. One was fueled by misguided grievance. The other reflects a distinct lack of broad public enthusiasm. #WeSeeYou
