I learned this week that you can put our troops' lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing.
But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn't like, you will be abducted on the street and disappeared.
Much of the media's attention is focused on what harm Pete Hegseth's reckless irresponsibility might do to him, when it should be focused on what harm it could have done to our troops--and *will* do to our relationships with allies, especially in Europe.

Thereβs not much higher on the priority list than MIA soldiers. Whoever dropped the ball there is failing POTUS in an inexcusable way.

The lives of American troops - and every American life - depends on the people in charge of our government taking their responsibilities seriously. But again and again, including with the incompetence that came to light today, they are demonstrating the opposite.

Itβs not that I donβt think sheβs capable, she certainly is, itβs that Iβve had too many knuckleheads tell me, βI couldnβt vote for a woman,β & I want the WH back first. @PeteButtigieg won IA & East before Obama asked him to step down for Biden. Letβs get democracy back.

And the other question on my mind is how many other times has something like this happened?
βVenetia, I'll patched you in. Can you hear? The caller is a man called Pete Hegseth. Did you hear that? He's talking about bombing Yemen. I don't know, some town in India perhaps. Yes, I've got Vito recording the whole thing. Oh, gracious, did you hear that? They're going to assassinate people!"
