Pete Hegseth in 'Full Paranoia' Mode, White House Officials 'Troubled' by Pentagon Chaos: CNN

Pete Hegseth in 'Full Paranoia' Mode, White House Officials 'Troubled' by Pentagon Chaos: CNN
CNN is reporting that while White House officials are “troubled by disarray” in the Pentagon, Secretary of Defense and former Fox News host Pete Hegseth is unlikely to be dismissed by President Donald Trump. 
Nevertheless, Hegseth is reportedly troubled by the alleged “total chaos” reported by his former spokesperson and is “in full paranoia, back-against-the-wall mode,” according to a source familiar with Hegseth’s state of mind over the last month




It's so good to be back in the saddle, again. 



Hegseth needs to be fired.

The intel he shared via Signal, including to his wife, was sent to him on a secure channel.

He knowingly exposed our pilots to unnecessary danger with his showboat antics. - Sen. Tammy Duckworth

And the beat goes on...

 





Justice Sotomayor with a bone-chilling warning: “The implication of the Government's position is that not only noncitizens but also United States citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before re-moval. History is no stranger to such lawless regimes, but this Nation's system of laws is designed to prevent, not en-able, their rise."






Ronald Reagan said we were an example for the world.

“A shining city on a hill.”

“And if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here.”

That was four decades ago.

WHAT THE HELL happened to you, Republicans???? - Bob Warth












When Trump and Musk tout how much money they're saving by gutting cancer research and Social Security services, know this: 

Their IRS cuts will cost $500 billion in tax revenue just this year. That's more than half the Defense budget. 

None of their destruction is actually about saving money. - Hillary Rodham Clinton

 




 

Our founders anticipated a Donald Trump, but they failed to anticipate a cowardly and compliant Republican party. - Jeff Tiedrich








 

If the U.S. government can disappear a person legally residing here with a wife and child who are U.S. citizens and then fart around as if federal court orders are meaningless,  the idea of America is pretty much shot. - Rex Huppke









Trump to Fox: "You know, in the old days -- about 1870 to 1913 -- the tariffs were the only form of money."








People taking 3 pieces of pizza at the party because they think it will run out vs people who take 1 piece for the exact same reason is such a perfect encapsulation of America. - Care2
