People that live paycheck to paycheck and can't pay their mortgage/rent will likely be the 1st ones to lose their shit. The fact that this is self imposed will make people even more angry. When there's enough anger, it'll get fixed.

Naw man. You won the nickname. Good job. That name will stick like Barney.

People dying. Think plane crash, etc.

And I will repost. You are even more fucking predictable. Grow up and debate the topic for fucks sake. Mod, you want to delete my counterpunch again to uhs stupid post, delete his too.

May I draw a potential parallel? The types that are very tired of the political elite, financial elite, royalty, etc., the ones that Trump stirred up to win some elections, might view this "Epstein List" as another tool to take down more of those elites. Or they just viciously despise pedos. Could be both.

So, what did a "Free 747" buy Qatar? Seems like basing at Mt Home.

I think I figured it out. Trump doesn't drink beer. How can anyone trust a dude that can't sip a pint. Communistic if you ask me. I would 100% support a beer drinking dude. Quick poll. Percent of MAGA that drinks beer. And not that Bud Light shit. I estimate 98.99%.

This was about Pete, but sure, Trump hired him. You say you can think of worse people, I can think of better. Don't we want good people running our country that we served? I keep asking that question.

So, you're happy in how she's running DOJ? Wasn't there a promise in there to stop the weaponization of DOJ? Oh, here's a quote from her on Tues. How's she doing, guys? "I took office with two main goals: to end the weaponization of justice and return the department to its core mission of fighting violent crime," Bondi told lawmakers. "While there is more work to do, I believe in eight short months we have made tremendous progress towards those ends."

I suppose it's easy to deploy a bunch of NG when you don't have to pay em. I'm sure they're happy, believe in the mission, and fully support this fine use of military capability. It probably ranks right up there with disaster relief. Or, let em work their civilian job so they can still pay their bills, etc. Hmmm. Unless that's a civil service job on furlough. I wonder if they can do Door Dash in Humvee.

Dallas and Ft Worth seem to be the biggest US cities with Republican mayors. No idea what their crime rates are, but these are cities that have Constitutional Carry, vs say, Chicago.

You're arguing about what dead guy would do, and I'm saying said dead guy should be a model of leadership. You can never prove your point, but I can continue to compare a historical figure to a TV talking head. If you think I'm displeased only with him holding a meeting, you haven't been paying attention. Pete is not a leader and I don't see him growing into one.

Nope, you indexed a solid American. I say hell yes. Said current staff is painfully no match for your standard, yet you don't voice that. Why? Shouldn't we have good, upstanding Americans lead this nation? I don't get it. Honest question, what is so wrong with that? You're still in the painted corner.

Bud, I think you just painted yourself into a corner. Are you saying Pete is just as good as Marshall? You think Marshall would agree? Marshall, the seasoned statesman and professional soldier vs Hesgeth? BTW, Marshall would be a great example for any of Trump's cabinet to follow. Trump too.

Mattis probably wouldn't have done it this way. That is my barometer for how a SecDef should conduct and perform.

I suppose my view of this event comes from an interaction I had with a 4 Star. I was worker bee end on a conference we were producing with other Gens, etc. Boss leans in and asks my boss, "What decisions will we be making? (Rest is paraphrasing) If we're calling in a bunch of Gens, we better be making productive decisions otherwise it's just a big waste. One way speeches are pretty much that. Now if the crowd got to stand up and ask good, hard questions, that changes my opinion, unless said Qs are planted softballs. But for that to happen, the doors probably needed to close and the TV cameras turned off. And there goes that big beautiful production for the world to see. Lastly, in the whole world of policy changes, to include stuff like don't ask, don't tell, to, ok, now you can tell, or women in combat, etc., has there been a briefing like this to convey those policies? Nope, a letter is ginned up, signed, maybe a press conference, and sent out.

It's called YouTube. Since the show was broadcast all over Earth, live streaming is easy. As for the content, I now christen the SoW, Pete "Mr Potato Head" Hesgeth, in honor of the "Groooooomin Standand" As for reception, I'm sure Pete wanted to end with a mike drop, but instead he could hear a pin drop. So it really was like talking to some TV screens.

No. And WTF is with the personal attack? Try harder not to be an asshole.

If this FOGO All Call is just a speech on bullshit, what an epic fucking waste. That's like a Wing/CC holding everyone hostage at 5pm on a Friday to bitch about sideburns. For Pete's sake, Pete, if this is all it is, cancel it now before you embarrass yourself/USA. https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/hegseth-self-centered-reason-calling-221749640.html "A White House official separately told CNN that the meeting is meant to be a show of force, demonstrating what the military looks like under Trump." ‐------------ PS, it'll cost millions and govt is facing a shutdown situation. Bravo, Pete.

With cameras and keyboard warriors these days, the eventual pairing of identities to asshole behavior, and the consequences many receive from such, you would think that people would behave better. I guess more lessons are needed.

Wouldn't be the 1st time a bouquet of golden mylar presented as a threat. One day on final, had to roll right at 300' to dodge a bunch heading towards the #1.

Like I said, GO Squid Games

That's a lot of non-availability letters, at least 2 reams for the just the GOs. Can you imagine the line at the Inn? I say money/time well spent. Its about time someone held an open ranks inspection at the GO level. Then make em do a big beautiful parade. Then, GO Squid Game. 🤣
