Hegseth and Trump reminded me of two RUSH chairman’s giving the warm up speech before the night’s abuse begins! And the “No fat Generals”? What about the fat president (who has never served) threatening them if they don’t shower him with applause? We looked weak; they had to sit there and listen!

‘Nuf said! l.smartnews.com/p-6iuZGj16/T...

We are a nation of peace, not war. And we don’t have to brag about it! l.smartnews.com/p-6iNhsnRe/q...

Nothing more to say! l.smartnews.com/p-6iDeDLMY/j...

No president talks about himself for an entire speech before his entire group of senior officers!!! No president gives political speeches before his senior leadership! One thing Joe Biden ALWAYS said at the end of every speech was “May God protect our Troops”. This man is a disgrace!

Patton, Omar Bradley and a most of the WWII generals never referred to themselves as warriors! They were soldiers and proud of that!

So now if you’re a woman serving in the military and you’re raped by your fellow soldier(s) or sexually harassed, the military will not “waste its time” investigating your abuse. It’s not something that promotes readiness. After all, boys will be boys!

UNWOKE to MAGA means it’s completely acceptable to sexually abuse women (after all they’re just women), promote only white men(fuck Latino, Chinese or other ethnic groups or women), it’s acceptable to be rude to anyone who may be woke, AND the only free speech that matters is mine!

Pete Hegseth just proved how unfit he is for SecDef, bringing in 800 Generals to listen to a ridiculous speech they could have watched by secure video. It was insulting! It was reckless and a waste of time!!!!

I don’t know of any branch of the Armed Services that accepted candidates for the military that didn’t meet physical and intellectual standards! Our military is completely oriented towards standards. But now Hegseth wants it to be the KKK military! No women, no diversity. What an ass!

Americans: My family needs healthcare GOP: No Americans: It is VERY important GOP: NO healthcare but here’s coal Americans: I don’t need coal GOP: It’s all we have. Wait, here’s measles. Americans: But my kid is sick GOP: The gold in the White House is 24 karat. #RemoveTrump

1 transgender shooter GOP: "We must institutionalize all transgenders!" 47,209 white male shooters GOP: "This is the cost of freedom."

I’m so insulted by Pete Hegseth. In his military, black men would still only be cooks on battleships, instead of generals! Woke means recognizing everyone has dignity, can contribute and has value. If you meet the requirements of a job you can do it! That was our military!

“To describe the speech as insane, while accurate, would distract from just how extraordinarily packed with lies it was. How profoundly ignorant it was.” l.smartnews.com/p-6gdGfXz2/4...

I just want to know what happened to ending the war in Ukraine in a day? Especially since it’s now HIS war! It became his war once he took the oath of office. Yet this week he washed his hands of the crisis! He’s a coward!

😕🇺🇸

Mockler: I said Donald Trump created this environment over the past decade. You sat here and said, I need to take responsibility. I'm a 22-year-old youtuber. You hold me to a higher standard than the President

SAD!!

this woman has been working at Nintendo for almost 20 years and nearly a decade longer than the guy she is replacing how much more qualified does she have to be lol

Trump sends troops into Portland with lethal authority. Hegseth, rallying generals at Quantico, shares a post on German generals swearing loyalty to Hitler. Totally normal.

Morelle: Here’s the problem whenever the president speaks—and I hate to make light of this because he’s the president—but it’s almost always just fantasy. This week he’s suddenly a scientist, telling us what we should do for a fever if you’re a pregnant woman. It’s an endless series of baloney.

Just FYI: Portland as a war zone is horseshit, and deploying federal troops is horseshit.

Real post on another network:

Unfuckingbelievable!

Question? Do we have any FBI agents or federal prosecutors left at DOJ that aren’t Trump loyalists? Doesn’t sound like it. Sure makes us vulnerable to corruption, organized crime and international criminal organizations!

We currently have a Supreme Court that seriously claims (with no explanation) that the current occupant of the Presidency suffers irreparable harm by having to follow existing law, the constitutionality of which has never before been in doubt or even questioned.

“.. We have a term: ‘groceries.' It's an old term but it means basically what you're buying, food. It’s a pretty accurate term, but it's an old fashioned sound — but groceries are down."

Californians — don’t take medical advice from President Bleach. Trust your doctor.

The irony is that Trumpworld is obsessed with energy.

And they shouldn’t be!!!

For all the Trump hoopla about no taxes on Social Security, (which I haven’t seen) what I got instead was a letter telling me my Part B premiums were being DOUBLED to over $500 per month! And more cuts are coming in 2026. #Republicanbaitandswitch

I honestly don’t care about James Comey. But I want to live in a democratic republic. His indictment proves we live in a banana republic, where the autocrat personally orders indictments of his political enemies, and when his own officials refuse he finds new ones that will.

ICE is abusing/torturing/disappearing/killing people using our tax dollars and in our name.

Denying Aid to blue states is an abuse of power that deserves impeachment! If he’s admitted it, there must be a reckoning!

FEMA leader David Richardson's ham-handed approach to disaster relief is painfully unacceptable. During the recent flooding in Texas, he was reportedly unreachable for 24 hours and has joked about deliberately delaying aid to Democratic-led states. He must be held accountable.

"Free speech is not about whether someone else agrees or disagrees; it's about whether you are able to do it." --Jasmine Crockett, just now to Chris Hayes.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

Van Hollen: I will just say that anybody who thinks we're on the way to authoritarianism is wrong. We are there

Well said! Democrats need to stand strong-Americans healthcare is at stake! Rural healthcare is on a knife edge, and they’ve designed it MediAid cuts to fall on democrats in 2026! Don’t let them!

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Thank you to all who called or emailed to complain. www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-off...

But yet he and the orange idiot are dispensing it regularly!

🔥HHS Secretary RFK Jr & I agree 100% here! "BUT, I don't think people should be taking advice, medical advice from ME!"
