"Hegseth obsessing over soldiers’ physical fitness in 2026 is like a European general fixating on his troops’ horsemanship in 1940."
Pete Hegseth 💩 the Bed Again
The secretary of WAR is obsessed with doing pushups in the age of drone warfare. America will pay for his stupidity.

The Milo stuff is the perfect picture of fascism. You think you're protected because you go as big as you can on racism, you spend years harassing the movement's perceived enemies, you even disavow your own sexuality. They'll still throw you in a cage over the tiniest disagreement already forgotten.

I remember my European History teacher, who was Jewish, emphatically stating that she would never own a VW. At the time, I didn't understand. I look at Tesla and I understand now.

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people.
By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s.
Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
Air power alone doesn’t win wars.
Symbolic strikes don’t create strategy.
And if you engage in war, you either commit to an achievable outcome or you shouldn’t start it in the first place.

Neither Winning Nor Leaving
The United States is stuck in the most dangerous place possible: a war with Iran we won’t end and won’t fully fight.

wild that this has to be said but it's true, unrepentant puppy-killers should not have the kind of power and discretion now wielded by Kristi Noem
Tillis to Noem: "A 14 month old dog is basically a teenager in dog years. You decided to kill that dog bc you hadn't invested the appropriate training, then you have the audacity to write a book & say it's a leadership lesson! ... Those are bad decisions not unlike what happened in Minneapolis"
