Piss-Drunk Pete Kegstand is an unqualified moron who has no skills — and no business running the Defense Department. is it any wonder he squandered our entire missile supply? thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I mock the shit out of this dumbfuck. link is here: bit.ly/4wdGXEn

he has no fucking clue what he’s doing — and it shows. look, Secretary of Defense is not an entry-level position. it’s a role that’s traditionally been held by lifelong military professionals — for a good reason: the Department of Defense is a ginormous bureaucracy, with millions of employees and a trillion-dollar budget. Piss-Drunk Pete Kegstand has zero qualifications to be running any of that shit. the only thing he’s ever run in his life is his fool mouth. he’s a weekend chat-show host. he’s the guy Fox News called when they needed a buffoon to pull goofy stunts, like getting drunk on New Year’s Eve, or flipping a skateboard up into his own nuts. this silly dipshit was barely one step up from a birthday party clown, and now he’s running the entire military? that’s fucking insane. so no one should be surprised that ‘hey, let’s not run out of missiles’ wasn’t on his to-do list. counting isn’t in Pete’s skill set. and Donny has no one to blame but himself. he’s the one who made all these dumbfuck hiring decisions. he’s the one who saw Pete flattering him on Fox News and said ‘yeah, here’s my guy, straight outta Central Casting.’

Trump lawyer Jim Trusty: "Normally if you have a Fifth Amendment privilege, but you receive a pardon, the pardon eliminates the privilege." BTC: "SCOTUS ruled that a defendant can plead the Fifth if there's an expectation they'll be exposed to criminal liability, even if they're innocent."

Think of the millions who cling to the status quo, even as it shifts quietly beneath their feet. It is a conundrum.

I simply cannot understand how anyone can listen to Zohran Mamdani or Abdul El-Sayed speak and think they sound scary or bad. The very same people who've been screaming "We NEED fighters in the democratic party!" are exactly the people now screaming, "Yeah, but not THOSE fighters!" 🤬

Rogers was chairman of the House intelligence committee. He knows his election wasn’t stolen, he lost. I saw up close his efforts, post-Snowden, to protect the NSA & ensure it continues to nullify your constitutionally-protected privacy. He was for impunity then & wants the same thing for himself.

Michigan Senate Candidate, a Former Trump Critic, Shifts Toward Election Skepticism

Mike Rogers, the Republican nominee, has suggested that further scrutiny of the 2020 election was warranted and that voting irregularities sank his first Senate bid two years ago.

Miller: Cassidy knows better. He voted to convict because Trump attacked our democracy, and then, five years later, after Trump just humiliated him, to then come back and be like, “I want Trump to be able to have the AG of his choice to continue that January 6 attack.” He is a shell of a human.

I feel like corporate media anchors should spend some time in debate prep style mock interviews with actors playing Trump administration officials. It's like they don't see the same lie coming over and over, or aren't prepared to counter it. Or is it deliberate?

@thebobster420.bsky.social Mitt Romney establishes in text to McConnell 1/2/21. Exactly who was responsible for the attack on our capital. As well as who had control of the reinforcements the capital police needed. When militia armed with gun, ammo and armory nearby sacked our capital.

Musk is selling a post-scarcity communist utopia, claiming money won’t matter in 10 years. Yet he still hoards wealth, lobbies for tax cuts, and did DOGE. He does not truly believe it. He is just using the vision of a moneyless future to sell you his robots

Senate Republicans ignore the Epstein survivors and confirm Todd Blanche. House Republicans ignore Bernie and Emily Moreno and do nothing about Max Miller. Zuckerberg's yacht ignores people in distress. It's Donald Trump's party.
