Pete Hegseth's confirmation hearing is giving me flashbacks to the media circus that was Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation as Supreme Court justice. I don't know enough about Pete Hegseth to say whether or not the accusations of sexual assault and misconduct are fallacious, but if Kavanaugh's anything to go off, I'd press X to doubt.
 
I want this smug, insufferable bitch to spend every night this week standing in her lot not allowed into her house and having to figure out what the plan for shelter is. For bonus points all of your physical cash, food, and clothing are burnt too and all you've got is maybe your most recent paycheck what came in. You're allowed to try to call on family or try for hotels, but you can't enter your home. Oh, and you have to do it with that dumb smile on your face the whole time too.

It is the absolute least she could fucking do to stand in solidarity with her constituents, the people she's supposed to be leading and representing the communities of. Surely she could rough it for a week on the cheap.
 
Fatpacks, I fucking need you to tell me the absolute worst possible things that are going to go wrong. I need this.

In a way, I almost feel bad. What if he is a reverse Cassandra? As in, he can only utter false prophecies that never come true? What if he is a true patriot like us, and can't even tell us? And he's hated for his dooming, while we are blissfully unaware that through his doom utterance, he is trying to cheer us on?
 
However, it is to note that the plagiarism accusations are related to the doctorate that he did in systematic theology at Boston University, which was before King's focus on activism.
MLK has been accused of plagiarism for many of his speeches, not just his doctoral thesis.
It is to note that King's family believes that the FBI is responsible for King's death, because if the blackmail and defamation attempts failed for the FBI, why wouldn't they try assassination to defeat King?
I recall, at some point, one of MLK's relatives (his kids, IIRC) directly asked James Earl Ray if he was the one who shot MLK. Ray said no and his family believed it. Ray probably did it, but what's really weird about Ray is he was a two-bit and shitty criminal his entire life. In the months leading up to the assassination of MLK, he sort of fell off the law enforcement radar, seemed to improve his skill at criminal life rapidly, and got away with a bunch of shit. No one just gets better that quickly without help.
Listen, the army is one thing, but do you have any idea how many cooks it takes to staff a ford class carrier?

Women in the navy reduce homosexuality, there’s not a lot of marching room on a floating death box, etc etc

If I was in the navy, I’d want Latinas getting their brows threaded on every deck
If women are going to serve then they need to look proper. I don't want unkempt men (unless they're in the front line, they got more important shit to deal with and even then they should do the best they can) or women in uniform. Keep those eyebrows under control and that makeup applied by all means, military ladies :semperfidelis:
Makeup looks like dogshit 99% of the time. Ladies: you look beautiful exactly as God made you.
 
Everyone should have seen this coming. McConnel has always been a useless turtle neckflapped piece of shit with no principles.
Yeah, but my only particular issue here is that you'd think he would have managed to convince or pressure most of the RINO senators to vote no when only 2 others (not including himself) did. Even Romney voted yes. It's quite extraordinarily pathetic to see.
 
This is so much more of a big deal.

Globohomo wanted our military cuckolded by the ratty, retarded Chinese and it would’ve been too shameful to bear
Ya it's a huge shellshock to the machine that someone Hegseth's age and with his body of work getting the job. I never thought we would see a SecDef who basically spent their entire time beforehand either in wars or directly working with veterans to get them the help they need.
