Michael Flynn - pardoned. Ashli Babbitt - full honors. Ronny Jackson - reinstated. I served 27 years and i am a proud retiree. I live my oath. I am, however, less than proud of what the current leadership is doing - it’s not the same military I served proudly. The clown turns everything to shit.

📌NOTE: Sending the Marines into ANY U.S. city would be the greatest, anti-American insult TO THE MARINES I have seen in my entire lifetime.
📌This is weak, disgusting and NOT THEIR MISSION. Be about time for retired Marines to start speaking up, because you KNOW you are better than this.

Scores of staffers at the White House National Security Council have been abruptly dismissed as part of a sweeping overhaul that slashes the staff from over 300 to just 50. The move shifts the NSC’s role from policymaking to simply carrying out the president’s directives.

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots.
The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination.
This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.
