eviscerates Hegseth, saying:
"The Defense Secretary is defenseless—you leak so much, you should be wearing Depends to work."
Hegseth desperately tries to justify his incompetence, but he is circling the drain and knows it.
Resign, Leaky-Pete!

It was always about personal profit
SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit.

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else.
Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

Stocks are diving reacting to the crazy policy and instability actions of this administration. Seems like business actually prefers the stability of grown ups over petulant children.

The same week that Elon Musk baselessly called Social Security a "Ponzi scheme," his co-president Donald Trump announced that he wants to create a national crypto reserve.
This could result in taxpayer dollars being used to prop up an actual Ponzi scheme.

Now that English is the official language of the United States, I look forward to everyone understanding the difference between “your” and “you’re,” “their” and “they’re,” and “to,” “two” and “too.”

Vance is completely wrong here. US military sales to Ukraine served as a catalyst to rebuild our production capacity for our own potential military needs. I bet you'll never hear him say the same thing about US missiles fired to defend Israel, though that did deplete short-term stocks.

“At least Russia has elections”
Russia frequently jails and kills any opposition to Putin, who has been in power since 1999.
If you like dictatorships, that’s fine. Just admit that. Don’t insult anyone’s intelligence—including your own—by claiming Russia has real elections.
