FACT: The Convicted-Felon-in-Chief is a bad manager, and he picked unqualified people of poor character to be leaders in his cabinet.
FACT: Almost every single Republican Senator (and a few Democrats as well) voted to confirm his unqualified and poor choices to be leaders in his cabinet.
FACT: Hegseth is just the first to screw up so royally that the GOP can’t paper over it. More will follow.
Let’s see if we can get it right on the second try, shall we Senators?

Pope Francis I, a leader of the so-called "resistance" to #TheRealDonaldJTrump, was found dead after meeting with Vice-President JD Vance in Rome following the Easter vacation period.
The Vice-President was in Rome to dress down the Pontiff for encouraging illegal immigration. His Holiness called Trump's cruelty to immigrants, "not Christian" (really!), to which Trump responded with a 130% tariff on crucifixes. (OK, I made that one up).

Voting for anyone but the candidate with your best interests in mind that has the best chance to win or sitting it out does not serve anyone.
Anyone.

"In a letter to DHS, the House members asked why agents attempted to enter the schools without warrants, and falsely claimed that the students came to the country as unaccompanied minors and that the agents were granted permission to be there by their guardians. 4 of the 5 students named were not unaccompanied minors, and parents contacted by the school district officials said they had not been contacted by #HomelandSecurity in advance of the visit". https://edsource.org/updates/house-democrats-demand-meeting-with-homeland-security-boss-over-visit-to-la-schools
My husband had a medical procedure done today.
He profusely thanked the nurse who helped him when we left.
Once in the car he told me this nurse has breast cancer.
It has metastasized to her brain and she needs to have chemo every 3 weeks.
She does it Friday evenings to make sure she won't miss a day's work.
Because if she stops working she loses coverage.
You want this to change?
Go fucking vote!

not the reality you live in
thus you have a big heart
and no fucking brain:
your nonvote, in reality, *harms* palestinians
In a shocking uncovered video from 2023, Pete #Hegseth called for #Biden to be held accountable for "handling #classified documents flippantly.” “If at the very top there's no accountability," then we have "two tiers of justice." Pete Hegseth has to resign.
#Russia is losing the war in #Ukraine.
There is no way for Russia to win.
This will end with either Russia collapsing, or a full blown #military defeat leading to total annihilation of the Russia army or tactical retreat.
It’s only a matter of time.

Or...hegseth is just incompetent. The only thing that's likely working against him right now is his liver.
