With Donald Trump hiring over 20 former Fox employees, Fox hiring Karoline Leavitt only goes one small step towards balancing the score for the Trump/Fox revolving door.

I'm a biographer of Trump and Musk, and wrote 5 books—several bestsellers—in which Putin is a key figure. My assessment: it's a three-way tie between these men for Most Dangerous Person Alive. No one else comes close. Stunning, given that Thiel, Altman, Karp, Luckey, Hegseth, and Xi Jinping exist.

One can only assume Pete removed the laurel and the olive branch to intentionally look more fascist.
Congress established the War Department at the cabinet level, Aug. 7, 1789. In 1947, the Navy and War departments and the newly independent Air Force merged to become the National Military Establishment. Two years later, in 1949, the name was changed to Department of Defense and then-Defense Secretary Louis Johnson authorized the first design and use of a seal for the department. The seal was updated in September 2025 to reflect the use of a secondary title, Department of War, as directed in Executive Order 14347.

The design of the original seal and its symbolism is described in Appendix VI Joint Army and Air Force Bulletin No. 23:

"An American eagle is displayed facing to the right. Wings are horizontal. The eagle grasps three crossed arrows and bears on its breast a shield whose lower two-thirds carries alternating white and red stripes and whose upper third is blue. Above the eagle is an arc of thirteen stars with alternating rays. Below the eagle is a wreath of laurel extending to the eagle's right and wreath of olive extending to the eagle's left. On an encircling band is the inscription 'Department of Defense' and 'United States of America.'

The American bald eagle, long associated with symbolism representing the United States of America and its military establishment, has been selected as an emblem of strength. In facing to the right, the field of honor is indicated. The eagle is defending the United States, represented by the Shield of thirteen pieces. The thirteen pieces are joined together by the blue chief, representing the Congress. The rays and stars above the eagle signify glory, while the three arrows are collectively symbolic of the three component parts of the Department of War. The laurel stands for honors received in combat defending the peace represented by the olive branch.

When the seal is displayed in color, the background is to be of medium blue with the eagle and wreath in natural colors and the arrows, stars, and rays of gold.
