YIKES! Duckworth asks Hegseth to name a country that's in ASEAN. He names three -- none of which are in ASEAN.

"I suggest you do a little homework," she says.

Every question from the senators should have been job specific like this. This demonstrates lack of preparedness. This could have convinced 3 republicans he isn’t the right one for the job

If the media hadn't spent every second leading up to the election normalizing an idiot conman and his nonsensical rhetoric, they wouldn't have to be spending as much time now explaining tariffs to America like it's a giant kindergarten class.

THREAD: This Trump era will be different from the first: the class of billionaires surrounding Trump that backed his bid is much larger--and each seeks to boost their own profits. We took a quick look at some of these folks here in a story this week on A1 print Sunday www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/u...
Trump Boosters Expect Big Returns on Their Investment: ‘The Shackles Are Off’

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...”

...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.
