Gold everywhere. Paintings of mug shots everywhere. A new cheesy Mar-a-Lago style ballroom. Now a UFC fight. The crass and classless ass continues to sully the understated grandeur and dignity of the people’s house to turn it into one of his failed Atlantic City casinos.

Today, thousands of openly-transgender service members will put on their uniform and do what needs to be done because they honor their oath to our country, while Pete Hegseth denigrates their service and violates his oath by brazenly sharing classified intel in text groups.
Just a reminder.

Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times.
