The whole world saw the videos. DHS executed in cold blood an innocent protestor in Alex Pretti, then lied to try & cover it up & is harboring the murderers from ICE...

One of the lessons of the Iran war is that it was a huge mistake not to even try to put any of the Iraq war architects in prison. We shouldn’t make it again.

BTW, if you are an avid hiker, don't forget to check and replace your boots, if needed. Walking with old boots is just as bad as driving with bald tires.

Yeah, right...
Whiskey Pete said there were to be "no rules of engagement", so there is no "dismay" on the part of US warmongers.
Just more BS from Axios...

I have seen this empty hole approach to coaching from Mulkey in several games this year. In terms of strategy or in-game changes, she seems to be a null set.
LSU often looks like one of the most talented "pick up" teams in the nation, with no team chemistry, no game plan & way too much one-on-one.

And all of that was laid out as part of the Heritage Foundation's AUTHORITARIAN fascist theocratic manifesto Project 2025. Installing only loyalists in every governmental institution, agency and branch of our government. Treason is exactly what it is at its core.

Did fans of women's basketball note how LSU coach Kim Mulkey single-handedly mismanaged the last 4:00 of their game against S. Carolina to guarantee defeat? Pissing away critical timeouts, playing 4 guards when LSU was getting killed on the boards & not running any plays. LSU had zero strategy...

Democrats stood down after the 2024 election so that the Epstein administration could cover up the sex trafficking ring and protect the donors to the Democrat and Republican Parties.

So very true! When Trump started purging top military leaders last year, I erroneously thought it should not make much difference, as in theory, all officers take an oath to defend the Constitution & allegedly have "honor & code". Turns out "honor & code" in the remaining officer corps is a myth...

TBF, they ousted lots of top brass first and have done it several times since. Those were probably the ethical and least likely to bend the knee-in other words the most responsible and reasonable.

Yes, the Pentagon's role in GOP fascism has indeed been depressing. They have made any efforts whatsoever to defend the Constitution. It does indeed look like all those Vietnam era protestors who detested the US military brass were correct all the time...
