Maurene Comey's push for discovery in her lawsuit (initially, to figure out whether Trump personally fired her or delegated his Article II authority to someone else to do so), describes a bunch of shenanigans at MSPB I had missed.

As you read about service members' response to being underbussed by Pete Hegseth, consider how this will play as Trump tries to start an illegal war with Venezuela.

This is extremely fucked up. We have already seen a lot of really horrible actions; this language is the type of language that often precedes even greater atrocities.

I personally think it is worthy of front page treatment that the President put a post on his account referring to people from a particular country as “inbred SAVAGES.” A lot of these posts, on their own, warrant front page treatment.

Schmitt’s argument is unintentionally revealing.
The “color revolutions” were non-violent, pro-democracy political movements aimed at ending autocratic regimes in former Soviet bloc nations.
If the Democrats are leading a “color revolution,” then Trump is an autocrat & Schmitt is pro-autocrat.

It’s important to note from a military perspective that if a subordinate is about to give an unlawful order & his senior knows about it, it’s also a requirement for the senior official to stop him from executing it. And then counsel/discipline him.
So there’s that, too.

When Trump calls female reporters “piggy,” “ugly” and “stupid,” it doesn't reflect badly on the women. It's just more evidence that the males of MAGA are manspreading their own insecurity.

When you read about these brazen crimes, remember that Hegseth believes he is carrying out God's will.
Pete Hegseth responded to all this with the smirking, adolescent sadism of a schoolyard bully pulling the legs off of a spider. Now juxtapose this with the horror experienced by a source who saw the imagery of the men being blown apart in the water:
