Pete Hegseth’s unauthorized halt of 11 U.S. weapons flights to Ukraine cost taxpayers $2.2 million and blindsided the White House and Ukrainian officials
Add this to Hegseth’s intentionally unsecured Signal chats and we should have a situation that goes far beyond “career ending”
We now have a system that allows Putin to bypass official corrupt channels to get the results he paid for

"not to be a bitch but it’s kind of fun that Ann Telnaes won a Pulitzer for quitting WaPo out of principle when you know that’s what Bari thought shoulda happened to her.
What’s the difference between quitting your job over editorial interference by a billionaire owner seeking to curry favor with the president and quitting your job bc you’re mad the boss didn’t crack down on your coworkers engaging in protected concerted activity? A Pulitzer."

“This letter is to inform you that Harvard should no longer seek grants from the federal government, since none will be provided,”
Education Secretary Linda McMahon wrote in a letter.
It was the first significant response from the administration since Harvard sued to challenge the government’s decision to cut billions of dollars in research funding after the university defied demands for intrusive oversight.

@samiamsam @Tengrain The government isn’t the Jews of Israel or the entirety of Jews, nor is Israel 100% Jewish, just going to throw that in.

There was a time in my life when only the young had the passion for civil disobedience.
Now it seems it’s only us ladies of uncertain age.

When choosing a law firm, it's important to choose a firm that won't cave to an authoritarian dictator!

@Nonilex
It can only be heresy if you're a member of the faith. Unless I'm mistaken, Trump isn't Catholic. So let's just call it what it really is...assholery of monumental proportions.
And I wonder what all those devout Catholics on the SC think about this.
@daringfireball Or anything else. Particularly something that must be read.
@dukepaaron The south has always had fried pickles. I imagine it always will. I discovered after moving here back in the early 90s that southerners will deep fry anything. Candy bars? Check. Meat? Check. Cookies? Check. Fish? Duh, of course. They will even fry Kool-aid and butter.
