Kash Patel has "summarily dismissed" a trainee for displaying a pride flag. "Summarily" means without attention to formalities. And there are formalities for firing a federal employee. So the twit Kash is admitting that the firing was done in a pique of bigotry, not in accordance with the law.

Journalist who sought asylum and has worked 20 years in the US now targeted by the people who claimed to be "just targeting criminals" and also "free speech" advocates.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

why did he say this

Many of them saw action on the frontlines. Some with commands spanning continents and crises. They bore the crushing weight of strategic decisions. And all dedicated their lives to serving the nation . . . But nothing could prepare them for the little Peter energy they would witness on that morning

Hegseth called a meeting of 800 of our most senior military leaders to prance and pace and act all war-manly What an asshole
