Retired military with over two decades of service. Patriot. Gardener. Home chef. Canner. Part-time hermit, full-time student and future elementary school teacher. He/Him. Opinions are my own, based in fact and more than likely correct.
I grew up around addicts of all kinds. If there is one thing I’ve learned, addiction is a disease. It doesn’t make you a bad person. Does going after someone with a disease for political gain make you feel good? Hegseth should not be SECDEF, but for other reasons not attached to alcoholism.

Corruption is about to get way worse, thanks to the Supreme Court
As Trump backers line up for spoils, the justices have virtually ensured there's no way to punish backdoor deals.
