“In a rare split with the Trump administration, GOP-led panels in the House and Senate say they want a full accounting in the September military attack.”

Hegseth appears to have crossed a line even the GOP can’t ignore.

One of the things that has happened due to the Roberts Court’s feckless, Illogical and corrupt presidential immunity ruling is that many of his enablers and sycophants have failed to realize that just because he has immunity for illegal acts (“a dog’s obeyed in office“ & worse than dogs”) they don’t

I’d rather question why is Kushner there and why is he laying out a vision? We did not vote him into any gov position nor the senate we voted for has approved his candidacy.

This isn’t a grey zone anymore, it’s 50 shades of grey.

Gov. Walz to NBC: Trump has "normalized this type of hateful behavior."

"I think it's just because he's not a good human being, but secondly, [it's] to distract from his incompetency … Trump is like, 'This is language police. You guys are woke.' Many times, it's just about being decent to people."

Pam Bondi, Pete Kegseth, Stephen Miller, and Kash Patel are going all in because they know if there's any accountability, they are most likely going to jail for a long, long time.

They are now tethered to Trump.

All the way up.
