Not surprising. They’ve read posts to him, and I’ve heard him respond with “well, that’s what you’re telling me the prez said.” Insufferable weakness and sycophancy.

Of course. Did I say not to?

Yes, but it won’t stop them from digging in order to occupy the moral lower ground. Clickbait and rage posting is all they have or care about.

If they are asked, then expect some combination of “I haven’t seen the post,” and/or “we’re/I’m focused on passing healthcare (payment, not actual care) legislation that will *help the American people and drive down cost*”.

It is not a party of accountability or leadership.

Nice of him to put money ahead of human lives.

In his defense, he didn’t say he either listened to, or understood the briefing. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Tom Cotton has been debasing himself for the past decade in search of the SecDef job. He will sell his soul for self-advancement. Public service is f no interest to him.

This is at the heart of the Psychology of Leadership curriculum at the Academy, right? That’s my recollection, but I also suffered TBI, so who knows?

🤦🏽‍♂️ She needs help. She must sleep with a nightlight, security blanket, teddy bear and a Glock. Well, probably just the Glock.

Wasn’t sure we’d sing second. Breathing again!

Mr. Trump only has 1 arrow in his quiver: extortion. I doubt the ICC will yield to extortion. Not that it really matters, except when he’s on international travel, because the U.S. is not a party to the Rome Statute. Therefore, we/the U.S. is not subject to ICC jurisdiction.

The rates will be cut further once Mr. Powell’s term expires and Mr. Trump puts his puppets on the Fed Board. Hassett has already signaled his beliefs rates need to be lower, and he’s odds-on favorite to be the next Chair. Mr. Trump confirmed cutting rates will be his litmus test for the next Chair.

“Healthcare stuff” they’ve been sitting on for 15 years kept him from a national security briefing. He’s lying. He skipped the briefing so he could dodge questions about the morality, ethics and legality of the entire boat strike program, and the secondary strike on shipwrecked people specifically.

And still polling better than she should be.

Agree. The lawfulness of any of these actions has not been established. The predicate they’re basing the attacks on is flimsy at best, and Congress has, once again, completely abdicated its responsibility to represent its constituents who are/will be placed in harm’s way. The lies continue.

*masturbatory…sorry for the typo

And because of this *ambiguity,* following the law by rescuing these 2 survivors and, perhaps, trying them would enable us to get these answers.

Mr. Cotton is campaigning for his masterbatory dream job of SecDef, so he will excuse any war crime in the hope Mr. Hegseth is on his way out.

That’s why a process exists to challenge orders we believe are unlawful, and why flag officers have JAG attached to their command to opine on lawfulness. *Uncomfortable* isn’t a thing. “Lawful” vs “unlawful” is the distinction that matters.
