I thought this was an Onion article. It’s not.

I mean, at least he’s consistent, as I assume these women don’t have the testosterone levels he wants.

Since taking office, Hegseth has fired, sidelined or removed more than 40 senior military officers from promotion lists and more than two dozen generals and admirals, including Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the first woman to lead the Navy. Reports say more than half of those affected have been women or Black officers.

A prerequisite, IMO. To prove he is anti-anti-fascist.

Doesn’t that seem like AA? I thought Trump and MAGA was against that? /s

You think he’d prefer the no-beard-o’s that women (mostly) are.

Even Trump’s teleprompter operator is doing alleged insider trading

Only the best people. Too bad it wasn’t the Ron Burgandy prompt. LOL

Blanche was referred by a judge to the NY state bar for discipline last week, over 1,200 former DOJ employees have signed onto an open letter calling for his nomination to be rejected, and now the NY city bar has come out against his nomination.

None of which will matter b/c current Republicans are spineless.

Kalshi has a strict policy against users placing bets based on information they obtained through their jobs.

Is that kind of like “Do not put Q-tips in ear canal?

I hate this type of attack on conservatives b/c it implicitly gives validity to the idea that there is something mockable or wrong with being gay.

Agreed… Even with cases like Lindsay Graham, I don’t love attacks on him related to him having been gay.

Mocking him for being a closeted person who actively harms the LGBTQ community is different than making fun of him for his sexual preferences, though the line gets blurry.

Pete Hegseth is an alcoholic torturer with a Nazi tattoo who has plenty to mock beyond his obsession with muscular, shaven men.

Don’t forget that he is also a religious wacko on a Christian nationalist crusade.

The US Ambassador to Canada (Pete Hoekstra) finally made an accurate observation but he doesn’t understand why:

“I think that Canadians don’t think very highly of the United States right now,”

i bet he was disinvited, or he didn’t want to face boos

Hoekstra’s comments today on Trump’s role in opening the Gordie Howe bridge need editing given all he did to delay its opening. It would be like Trump taking credit for the opening of the Strait of Hormuz.

"U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra said in a Monday statement America welcomes the opening.

“Adding new capacity to one of the busiest and most economically significant border crossings between the United States and Canada,” he said.

“President Trump made the opening possible and has consistently prioritized a safer, more secure, and more prosperous North America.”

A better analogy may be a Mafia boss taking credit for a new business opening after protection money is paid.

Whoops, seems like there wasn’t any vandalism at the Reflecting Pool after all.
