I would not weep if a bunch of the top brass interrupted Hegseth, told him he was a threat to the nation that they had sworn to defend, and took steps. If some of the steps happened to be all over his prone form, well shit happens.
Mind you I am imagining as I often do what could (should?) happen, not attempting to predict the future or sway the gods of a better America. What will be, will be. Unless we take steps.
Just a reminder: EPSTEIN FILES!
I’m not a doctor either but I’m pretty sure the Trump administration has a serious staff infection.

When Democrats defend democracy, we are protecting not only its legal and moral infrastructure, but all of its concrete material achievements for the people, like Medicaid, Social Security and Medicare.
When we defend democracy, we defend progress. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/18/opinion/democrats-constitution-economy-politics.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
Of course it’s Friday in the US where it is traditional for the US government to release bad news or outrageous news later in the day. The hope is for most people to be done with any news because their weekend has started. But today there was just one thing after another. Can hardly wait a few more hours for what else is coming.
THIS tariff announcement of Trump starting 100% tariffs on meds today is truly awful. My son took about $70k in meds last year. Most are made in other countries, especially generics. You know WHO is getting hit? Americans. And guess what, ALL American taxpayers will pay more for medications paid by Medicaid. Slick move, Trump!
“In 2024, America imported nearly $233 billion in pharmaceutical and medicinal products, according to the Census Bureau. The prospect of prices doubling for some medicines could send shock waves to voters as health care expenses, as well as the costs of Medicare and Medicaid, potentially increase.” ~APNews

I know Lindsey Halligan is new at this prosecutor business, but there's far more evidence Ka$h Patel committed a crime in investigating Comey than that Comey did.
Lindsey the Insurance Lawyer got the wrong FBI Director!

It will be a loyalty meeting. Swear allegiance to trump above country and constitution or you’re finished.
All of these generals have access to highly secure latest and greatest video conferencing equipment and technology - the only reason you get them in a room is so there’s no record of what’s said and you threaten them in person.
