Books about “Asian wife sharing.” Detailed descriptions of orgies. Scenes involving “ladyboys.”
That’s what @dfriedman.bsky.social discovered on a Goodreads page tied to the email address of a top Pentagon official and mentor to Pete Hegseth.
What came next was even wilder.

I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.
Journalism in the second Trump administration gets personal.

It’s striking how many of the most mundane features of American democracy, built centuries ago to protect against remembered tyrants from centuries prior, are still the bulwark against Trumpian fascism, while all the newfangled modern institutions simply collapsed on first contact with him
JUST IN: Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Snell just confirmed, at the prodding of U.S. Magistrate Judge Keri Holleb Hotaling, that this motion for dismissal followed a "no bill" from a grand jury.
That means the grand jury refused to indict.

U.S. prosecutors in Chicago are dropping another case tied to Operation Midway Blitz, "without prejudice."
It's USA v. Nathan Griffin. Below is the motion, followed by excerpts from the complaint.
The feds don't say why they're dropping it, but they had until today to secure an indictment.

SO! It’s been a gobsmackingly horrible couple of years for a lot of us, a real record-breaker, truly. Let this be your semi-regular reminder that *you* always have the capacity and agency to alleviate some of that feeling in others. Reach out a hand! Say something kind! It’s powerful stuff.

As I told @cnn.com, there's nothing to justify any of the lethal maritime strikes.
There's no armed conflict.
The administration has engaged in very real killing in a make-believe armed conflict.
And even in the admin's legal fantasy land, attacking the shipwrecked would be a war crime.

Pleased to speak with Fredricka Whitfield on @cnn.com today.
Explained that the legal problems with the killing spree at sea far go beyond the September 2nd incident.
Premeditated killing outside of armed conflict is called murder.
