Let’s be real, the only thing “abstruse” about the debate is how Randy Barnett and others can dress up their bigotry

Bad news for Hegseth, it turns out the Pentagon is a big bureaucracy filled with people who got there because they know how to fight bureaucratic battles and they will wait for you to lie about something then leak details about it. Who knew?
A most important question on the Sept. 2 double-tap strike is who had "target engagement authority" (TEA).
Wall Street Journal:
"A Defense Department official ... said Hegseth was the 'target engagement authority,' the key figure who authorized the strike."

Paul Sperry (@paulsperry.bsky.social) should either put up a single piece of evidence that I was the recipient of leaks of highly sensitive, investigative information from @jamescomey.bsky.social or take this down and acknowledge error.
Either support this claim—which you cannot do—or retract it.

This from @paulsperry.bsky.social is a bald-faced lie and contains no element of truth. I never received a “leak” of “highly sensitive details about an active investigation” from @jamescomey.bsky.social—in a October 2016 or at any other time, on Google or on any other platform. He links to nothing
