I had a front row seat to the integration of women into combat arms. IStandards were not changed. He’s just jealous bc 165 women have Ranger Tabs and he does not.
Hegseth: "Any place where tried & true physical standards were altered, especially since 15 when combat arms standards were changed to ensure females could qualify, must be returned to their original standard. Other standards have been manipulated to hit racial quotas, which is just as unacceptable"

We have a West Point phrase that works perfectly here: NO EXCUSE.

Burn it all down
Who’s In and Who’s Out at the Naval Academy’s Library? (Gift Article)
An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office resulted in a purge of books critical of racism but preserved volumes defending white power.

Doesn’t matter if the info was classified or not (it was).

The chat was illegal in itself already.

Hey Democratic leadership, this Hegseth story right here?

It's a big fucking deal, and you should be eager to hammer the shit out of the Trump admin over it. Don't play nice. There's no need to wait for further details.

You need to mercilessly attack them over this.

Headed to Dublin to see my daughter and play some golf. In my backpack resides my packet to apply for birthright Irish citizenship (thanks to my grandmother born in Galway). It essentially an EU passport. This is my exit plan from this fucking hellscape.

In case you are wondering why the SECDEF standards memo mentions 15 January 2015.

Women with tabs =157

Hegseth with tab = 0

Same bald heads, same gender neutral PT test and not a single woman has LOMd in 10 years.

I used to respect the office of the president regardless of who occupied it. But after what SCOTUS did to the office of the president, I don’t respect the office, either.

Taking a breath in CR🇷🇺🏄🏻‍♂️. Weather looks good, have a board lined up, pool is soothing, house is in great shape. Have a new tube to fix my cruiser bike. Second time in a row being here solo (last August). Normally thrive with others around me, but I’m getting used to this. 😬

I actually feel sorry for the fake reporter who asked Zelensky about a suit. When he isn’t sucking Trump’s dick, he has to suck Marjorie Taylor Greene’s.

DOD mandates erasing all content that covers races, ethnicity or gender be removed from all social media and the Defense Video Service by 5 March. Apparently if you can’t see us, we don’t exist

At some point very soon, republicans in Congress will have to choose between pleasing Trump to avoid being primaried, and helping their constituents to avoid being primaried.
