"Hegseth did not deny that two defenseless people were killed. We still do not know what, if anything, they were guilty of. Certainly, as they clung to the wreckage of a boat in the ocean, they did not pose an immediate threat to the United States."

I looked and he is correct. It’s scary how far it’s come in four years. The prompts I show in the screenshots are very detailed. If it’s rendering imagery like this based on those prompts, the lines between real and Ai aren’t as blurry.

Justice Dept. acknowledges full grand jury never saw final Comey indictment
The acknowledgement came during a hearing in which a federal judge heard the former FBI director’s arguments that he is the target of a vindictive prosecution.

Maybe it’s time for him to retire and focus on his obvious declining mental and physical health.

For years they droned on about “the Deep State” - a powerful cabal that controlled everything.
Then they set their sights on “the Epstein list” - a powerful cabal that preyed on children.
(Spoiler: it’s the same cabal)
Now they’re in power, guess who is protecting this cabal?
They are.

Lets reward the corrupt with more corruption by siphoning more funds from the rapidly shrinking middle class. Standard political messaging these days. Zero consequences. We need to eat the rich and all of their sycophant enablers.
