  1. Not fired because now retired, but still in a world of self-induced sh1t: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/retired-four-star-us-admiral-convicted-on-corruption-charges/ar-AA1F53M2?ocid=msedgntp&pc=HCTS&cvid=16dacbfb21d24cd397e8bb219d52d4e7&ei=14
  2. Perhaps you're right. The follow-on Boeing gigs have really sharpened up that company...getting that talent even earlier ought to really pay off for the civilian sector. Same folks who've "led" for Iraq, Afghanistan, Houti bombings I, managing the procurement of a new AF1, T-7, M10 "Booker" not a tank tank, LCS class ships, Boeing space capsule, no food at US Army posts, black mold in barracks, so much time on DEI, renaming installations, etc, etc, etc. Finest kind, I believe is the phrase.
  3. It would appear not. https://www.texasstandard.org/stories/trump-pentagon-cuts-climate-change-defense-department/ https://thehill.com/policy/defense/5291458-hegseth-timeline-transgender-troops-military/#:~:text=Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has directed the Department,not exit voluntarily%2C according to a new memo.
  4. Don't do the help. Advice not just for the US military. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/navy-chief-removed-from-duties-for-investigation/ar-AA1EviFw?ocid=msedgntp&pc=HCTS&cvid=b89f888174e34ed8b353eb76b778cd6a&ei=24
  5. From a criminal referral to a criminal investigation: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/doj-opens-investigation-into-ny-ag-letitia-james-real-estate-transactions-reports/ar-AA1EqGyD?ocid=msedgntp&pc=HCTS&cvid=2ea7007451244e5188be5a9869d700ae&ei=53 One hope this leads to a criminal indictment. Love me some schadenfreude...
  6. I thought Amazon gift cards was the preferred payment method...
  7. Many wins chalked up, but for now, today, this is my favorite:
  8. So, again, Obama offe'd an American and his son, however bad, on nothing more than his say-so. Deporting an illegal seems much less drastic if designated a national threat. Tell me again about precedent.
  9. Valid point of order. But no due process for lethal punishment for two American citizens. Again, well done to those carrying out the mission. The planet is a better place with both the dad and the kid gone. But no whining about an MS-13'er with multiple violent charges being sent back to his point of origin by mistake. Any other country not in the US was valid according to the judge's original deportation order.
  10. I ask this seriously, no snark or point scoring intended: were you aware, and if so, were you cool with Obama ordering the Hellfiring of an American citizen and his 16 year old son, even though the guy was a terrorist? He had no due process other than a Situation Room briefing that said, "he's a bad guy." I'm not sorry the guy's dead, but I said then, and do now, that it was wrong. As to your "equal branch" point, I almost agree. Supreme Court = POTUS = full Congress vote. I don't agree that a district court should be able to impose a nationwide anything regardless of what political party occupies the other branches. So I hope the Supreme Court finally ends that practice once and for all. Will be better for all. As to a mass invasion and due process, that's a thing. I don't have a complete answer. But if Biden can arbitrarily let them in, why can't Trump boot them out? Biden granted "paroles" and "temporary refugee" status to hundreds of thousands of Haitians, et al. Why can't Trump remove that grant?
  11. https://www.usatoday.com/videos/news/2025/04/21/kristi-noem-says-she-was-robbed-at-dc-restaurant/83198394007/ Hey, Secret Service:
  12. It's Congressman Bacon, but let's not let little details get in the way...
  13. https://www.aol.com/news/pentagon-denies-reports-second-signal-154533696.html Do tell: https://www.politico.com/news/2025/04/16/david-hogg-dnc-00294660 Again, "unnamed sources" from outlets with very long, proven track records of telling porkies doesn't work for me to think someone guilty of malfeasance. Trust the science...
  14. Objection, Dr. You note "accused a second time." By these outlets using unnamed sources. The SECDEF, has, on the record, denied the accusation. Something like "innocent until proven guilty" comes to mind, but that's me and my old-fashioned ideas. Today, apparently, it's enough to be accused, even for a second time. By unnamed sources. So, yes, I might be charged. Doesn't make me guilty. Read up on "indicting a ham sandwich." I leave the expertise in knowing how UCMJ works to an expert.
  15. Apparently not something else. https://taskandpurpose.com/news/army-mccoy-suspended/ How are you suspended from command and it not be "misconduct?"
