I forgot the German word for "rock" (vs. "Stein") and pulled out #Google Translate for assistance. Let's just say, like many of us, I do not think it is handling the current Zeitgeist very well.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.
100% of his salary is paid by WA state.
Elon fired him. Share his story.

And this will only embolden Putin and others because they now know they can get away with it. I suspect Taiwan is next.
Hegseth: "We must start by recognizing that returning to Ukraine's pre-2014 borders is an unrealistic objective ... the US does not believe that NATO membership for Ukraine is a realistic outcome of a negotiated settlement."
