Trump's Pick For Pentagon Chief Claimed He Left The Military After Being 'Deemed' An 'Extremist' By Members of His Unit
...In the June 2024 book, Hegseth explains how he and the military finally parted ways in 2021. “And, in 2021, I was deemed an “extremist” by that very same Army. Yes, you read that right. Twenty years . . . and the military I loved, I fought for, I revered…spit me out,” Hegseth wrote.



Pete Hegseth 5 days ago: "I'm straight up just saying we should not have women in combat roles."

Well, Better Than Rick Scott, I Guess









Dear mainstream media: Stop acting like Trump won in a landslide. As late ballots are counted, two facts have emerged: Trump won by only about 1 percent, and he failed to get over 50 percent of the popular vote. It’s shaping up to be the closest election since Bush v Gore in 2000, and when you report otherwise, it just makes more of us cancel our subscriptions or change the channel. - Andy Borowitz

  2. The Cascade Volcanic Arc is majestic, but when nature becomes an ugly force it is hard to enjoy it! I hope you are safe for now and have high ground to go to. I also hope the brunt of the coming storm does not hit you head on and that you emergency responders are good at their jobs!! 😳🥺🫶
