basically everything about this is wrong and horrifying but I'm stuck on the absolute fucking chutzpah you'd need to lecture professional military personnel like this after you personally texted wildly classified war plans to the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic
Hegseth: "It all starts with physical fitness and appearance. If the secretary of war can do regular hard PT, so can every member of our joint force. Frankly, it's tiring to look out at combat formations and see fat troops. Likewise, it's completely unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals."

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.
Neither Neurodivergence Nor Mental Illness Made Them Bigots—They're Just Awful People
It's hard to admit your heroes are jerks, but the mentally ill and neurodivergent shouldn't be collateral damage.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

It's hard to know where best to channel our rage these days but my friend @rexhuppke.bsky.social has honed in on a pretty good target in this asinine comment by Alina Habba www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...
Trump adviser insults veterans as not 'fit to have a job.' It's disgraceful. | Opinion
Just when you thought the Trump administration's denigration of the federal workers couldn't get worse, Alina Habba specifically insults veterans.
