He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.
Make it make sense.

I don't know what Congress people need to hear this, but weak "decorous" opposition is insufficient to meet this moment.
I don't care if you flip him off and then walk out, or throw a pie at him, or what, but just refusing to clap or wearing a particular color to symbolize opposition is not enough.

How long until the Library of Congress faces a purge? Should historians be getting what resources they can now? I'm imagining anything related to the civil rights movement, anti-fascism, and even public health could be gone soon.

Then why did you vote for him? No point in being puzzled when you weren’t willing to stand up and say no when you had the chance. It’s insulting.
GOP Senator Roger Wicker on Pete Hegseth’s NATO speech:
“I don’t know who wrote the speech — it is the kind of thing Tucker Carlson could have written, and Carlson is a fool.” Wicker (who voted to confirm Hegseth) told Politico, adding that he was “puzzled” and “disturbed” by Hegseth’s comments.
