I know they’re all terrible but somehow Hegseth seems to have tapped into the purest concentrate of dickhead energy. You would not want to see him in charge of a kids’ football team and yet here we are…

This is a terrifying thread. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if the idiots running this war never considered it.

Gentle reminder for those idiots that want Britain to get fully involved in an illegal war in the Middle East built on a false argument around WMD, in 2003 we had an economy larger than China and could put about 60,000 servicemen and women into the field.

It's history, not current affairs.

The U.S. economy lost jobs in 0 of the 48 months Joe Biden was president. It has lost jobs in 6 of the 14 months of Trump's second term.

On the one hand, a clearly deranged lunatic in the White House starting a dangerous illegal war on Iran with already-serious repercussions for the region and world...

Or having a pop at Keir Starmer.

You just knew which side the Right would come down on.

An extract from a blog, which reads:

At most they will be able to say: They started it because it was fun. They like thumping things and this was a thing they could thump. They were insane with the most degenerate notions of what it is to be a man and ended up accidentally converting it into a foreign policy.

Republicans are using kids as a smokescreen for what Big Tech lobbyists want: a national surveillance program to harvest our data with zero protections for people and their privacy.

We must fight this dangerous expansion of surveillance technology.

The ayatollahs could issue the funniest statement ever today:

"Wait. He just appointed the second-most deadbrained Senator to head homeland security and he gave the dog-shooting Barbie some made-up job defending the Western Hemisphere. And now he wants to name our Supreme Leader? The fuck you say."

It’s important to note that neither Hegseth nor any of the other imposters play acting at national leadership have the slightest inkling of why Europeans came to this continent in the first place, or the creedal principles they chose to detail in our founding documents.

Rep. Tony Gonzales admits to affair with staffer who died by suicide Texas Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales has come under fire for allegedly having a romantic relationship with a staffer who died by suicide last year

So for weeks Gonzales has been lying. Why is he even allowed to run? Texans seem to love the lowest common denominator.
