When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them.
The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.

First, the story about Hegseth allegedly committing war crimes has been going on for days
Second, if a Speaker of the House isn't up to date on current news, he isn't fit to serve. Even if Mike Johnson he didn't see it himself-highly unlikely-a staffer would've told him
So third, Johnson is lying

In the Navy I busted drug runners in the mid 90s. I remember one person we arrested saying he did this for his family. These runners aren't the hardened criminals they paint them to be sometimes. This job isn't one the high ups take. Hegseth, you're a murderer.

Even by the standards of The Atlantic, this is an extraordinarily weak evidence base for an article.

I encounter this a lot, and it's just because so many people have grown up in an era of disposable goods, where they're encouraged to treat literally *everything* as consumable instead of repairable. The idea of maintaining things just doesn't occur to them. I don't fault them for not knowing.
been thinking about this a lot lately, how I regularly discover someone has never done some kind of important maintenance (usually involving filters: engine air, HVAC, dishwasher, vacuum cleaner) & learning not to be disgusted by them, but just that nobody ever told them you have to do these things
Good news for me. My home is not in immediate danger of burning down from an electrical fire, and the HVAC man didn't even have to clean the blower because I've been doing such a good job changing out the filter regularly every 4 weeks.
Have you changed your central air filter recently?

Bad news for Hegseth, it turns out the Pentagon is a big bureaucracy filled with people who got there because they know how to fight bureaucratic battles and they will wait for you to lie about something then leak details about it. Who knew?
A most important question on the Sept. 2 double-tap strike is who had "target engagement authority" (TEA).
Wall Street Journal:
"A Defense Department official ... said Hegseth was the 'target engagement authority,' the key figure who authorized the strike."
