Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed.

He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

I’m old enough to remember when Secretary Hegseth tried to publicly mock Judge Reyes—suggesting that she didn’t know what she was doing when it comes to protecting our national security.

It was … two days ago.

Pete Hegseth would not be Sec of Def without @RogerWicker. He had the power to stop the nomination.

So, will Senator Wicker call for an investigation of the most serious national security breach in modern times? Or just look the other way? Party or country?

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

The phone number for Chuck Schumer's local Senate office in NYC is: (212) 486-4430. The local zip there is: 10017. 👇🏻
Chuck Schumer privately counseled fellow members of the Senate Democratic Caucus to not fight against the spending bill if it results in a shutdown, but Dems want to take on that fight and they think they have the numbers to stop it.

It's time to call the GOP's bluff. www.axios.com/2025/03/12/s...
Senate Democrats embrace hardball on government shutdown
"There are not the votes right now to pass it," Sen. Tim Kaine said.

Friday's Oval Office betrayal was to create a pretext for this move. As long as Trump is in office, America will be on Putin's side.

Not. One. Vote
If the Democrats bail out Mike Johnson on ANY spending bill, they deserve the utter political destruction coming their way.

Some are already falling for the "but we'll get blamed for shutting down the government" b.s.

Have you learned NOTHING?

Not. One. Vote.

I am the great-grandson of a man who led his family out of the shtetl to a strange land in search of a better life. I am the grandson of the three-year-old boy on that journey.

In 2016, Russia fucked with our elections to help Trump win. Trump tried to shut down our investigation into it. In 2018 in Helsinki, Trump sided with Putin over America. Now as President again, Trump is purposely making it even easier for Putin to fuck with our elections again. Well done America.
Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections.

Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Collins: He said that Canada is going to be implementing a $1.3 billion border plan, where they talk about reinforcing the border. I should note that's actually something that was announced back in December

Dear Democratic Members of Congress:

You need to either be physically at these agencies that are rapidly undergoing the Trump transformation to investigate or physically protest or in front of a mic, on cable news, screaming about what is happening.

The irony of people doing this fake virtue signaling (after an entire campaign rife with fainting spells over the cost of eggs), is that their political deity is famous for manufacturing his clothing outside the US and for failing to pay American contractors.

Right now, my focus is on recovering any possible survivors of this aircraft collision. Time is of the essence, should there be any survivors. A good rule of thumb I was taught while a trainee at the Naval Special Warfare Center was 50/50/50. In 50-degree water, 50% will be dead in 50 minutes.
