Pete Hegsethβs Moral Unseriousness
The defense secretary appears unable to approach matters of life and death with even the slightest bit of reverence or humility.
"We need people in government and in the military who can lead the nation to victory in times of war, but that is quite different than having people in leadership who indulge in bloodlust or who are wrestling with inner demons."

Justice Dept. releases missing Epstein documents with Trump allegations
The agency said the records, which include allegations made against President Donald Trump in 2019, were not previously released because they were β incorrectly coded.β
Yeah, right. The now fraud DOJ department of Trump's dirty business.
"The Justice Department this week said it had βnot deleted any files from the library,β and a spokeswoman called it βthe most transparent Department of Justice in history.β

Pete Hegseth, war crimes enthusiast, drunk, and member of a misogynist cult, must be among the worst possible people to be "Secretary of War.β Many will suffer because he holds this office.

Trump is giving Russia a pass to sell sanctioned oil, helping fund its war against Ukraine, because his own war of choice has driven oil prices higher.
Meanwhile, Russia is assisting Iran in targeting American troops.
Absolutely shameful.

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces, officials say
The targeting information has included the locations of American warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the officials said.
Putin's Russia is sharing targeting Intel with Iran (he's not Donald's friend, really, is he?). MEANWHILE, our "5 Eyes" allies are NOT sharing intel with Donald Trump's U.S. for fear it will show up in the Kremlin.
Trump is a threat to U.S. national security and prosperity.

Yeah, this is bad. I've never liked Grammarly for a lot of reasons, but creating AI "editors" based off of real journalists is absolutely wild and unacceptable. The fact that Grammarly feels so comfortable with this as to use their actual names is also just bonkers!

War and Presidential Self-Care: How Weβre Tumbling Toward November
A short time ago I got email from a TPM reader with...
Josh Marshall: "Thereβs never been a presidency this deeply personalized, with almost all the padding and assistanting and delegation already stripped away. So all of us, not just at home but increasingly abroad, are along for this ride."
No thank you very much SCOTUS and oligarchy!

Justice Department targets Cuban officials, aims for indictments
The Justice Department has formed a working group to examine bringing federal charges against officials or entities within Cubaβs government.
"See, if we indict them for something, we can claim invading their country to seize them is criminal enforcement, not war."
"Yeah, because everyone in the world is subject to US law!"
"Except us."
"Right, right, we got that impunity!"
"Immunity."
"Yeah, that too."
