I am about as "give every student the benefit of the doubt" as you can be, but eff this student. Willfully setting up a TA and professor; nakedly lying to destroy others' careers; shamelessly cashing in with the right-wing grievance complex. What a miserable person. I hope she never graduates.

Their place in history is "settled," just not how Hegseth wants it to be. Wounded Knee was not a "battle." It was a massacre, enthusiastically conducted by US Army soldiers and officers. This is the equivalent of honoring those responsible for the war crimes at My Lai.
