Is he about to set some crazy PT standard that women will fail?

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 14d

Hegseth: "When it comes to any job that requires physical power to perform in combat, those standards must be high and gender neutral. If women can make it, excellent. If not, it is what it is. If that means no women for some combat jobs, so be it."

I don't know what this whole "let's suddenly make all ~800 US generals and admirals gather in one room" business is about, but if nothing else I would want to stay a comfortable blast radius away from Quantico on that day.

Suspect is a good show but my god the Brit’s are dumb as fuck. Why not black bag that man above ground instead of waiting till he’s in the tube and hitting him point blank with no option to interrogate. Shitty work.

In case you were wondering why the incorrect rumor of “trans activist” and “fascist symbols” on ammo started, it’s because arrows and initials are common ways manufacturers stamp ammo.

Yes, this definitely seems like an appropriate and constitutional use of the State Department's surveillance authorities. And definitely a fitting way to honor a person whom Trump admin officials have labeled a First Amendment hero. www.axios.com/2025/09/11/c...

Evidently more people signed petitions to ban him from campus than actually went to see him and there weren’t even 10% of students at the event

A TPUSA rep came to my campus on Monday. What I learned from that experience was that most of our students and virtually everyone on our faculty and in our administration had no idea what that organization was, or who Charlie Kirk was.
