oh boy another one!
So he ordered a second strike… why? There were no survivors, why did he do the double tap?

Hagueseth needs to stand trial.
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?

HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

Can a reporter ask that worm Hassett how those numbers work? Ask him to explain the math on slashing drug prices by 800%.
Trump claims he's slashing drugs prices by "200 percent, 300 percent, 400 percent, 500 percent, 600 percent, 700 percent, 800 percent. Nobody has ever heard of it before."

Aaaaaand…this is exactly why the six lawmakers needed to remind servicemembers about not obeying unlawful orders (this will get driven home when Hegseth gets a pardon but no one else does)
NYT:
Five officials told us that Hegseth had nothing to do with the second strike

Washpost (which broke the story 2 days ago):
“This is ‘protect Pete’ bullshit,”
and
“It’s throwing us, the service members, under the bus.”

Pete Hegseth being accused of war crimes is exactly why Mark Kelly’s message matters. Our military must follow the Constitution, not Trump’s corrupt orders.
December 2, 2025 at 1:52 AM
hey so what happened to the president not issuing illegal orders? Seems like those democrats were right to remind service-members of their oath and training…
Breaking news: Government officials said they are increasingly concerned that the Trump administration intends to scapegoat the military officer who directed U.S. forces to kill survivors of a targeted strike on suspected drug smugglers in Latin America.
Hegseth, with White House help, tries to distance himself from boat strike fallout
As Congress vows accountability, the Trump administration emphasized it was a top military commander — not the defense secretary — who directed the engagement.

They’re definitely not making this any better!
FOX: You said the follow up strike was lawful. What law is it that allows no survivors?

LEAVITT: The strike was conducted in self defense to protect Americans

hey what’s that thing that police do when they seize assets that they suspect were part of a crime without charging anything but you can’t get the assets back?

How do we do that for all of Kushner’s?
We have a cabinet level Secretary of State, a diplomatic corps, Special Envoys, and Defense team to do this work.

“Son-in-law” is not a government job. Kushner does not represent us.

Execs and managers just desperately trying to create value without labor.
November 30, 2025 at 3:20 AM
They are not building tools that would actually generate value to workers because they are trying to replace workers whole cloth. That’s why you see this decline.

Of course Execs use it at the highest rate: they need sycophantic support from the chat machine to tell them their ideas are good.
The numbers in here are hilarious.

Do you use AI on the job?
Execs: 87%
Managers: 57%
Workers: 27%

Planned investment by 2030: $5T
"Necessary" annual revenue to justify that spend: $650B
Current annual revenue: $50B
Three years into the generative-AI wave, demand for the technology seems surprisingly flimsy

GUARDIAN: “Per head, 🇺🇸 output is six times China’s, and yet, inexplicably, there seem to be more abjectly poor Americans than Chinese. 🇺🇸 inequality is breathtaking… keeps getting worse…”

Wanting to address this isn’t radical.

NOT wanting to is.

Everything Trumpiggy does starts from the premise: how do we avoid the law/rule. He should be rotting in a cell for all the crimes he has committed and the criminal behavior he has fostered.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Stephen Miller would have said this about the Irish, Italian, Catholic, etc 100 years ago.

He is a trash human and belongs in a gutter.

National parks have SO MANY people from other countries (since they get real vacations!)

And they spend a lot of money on hotels, food, souvenirs, etc.

This is unbelievably dumb, it will destroy entire tourist towns
