Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution?

How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ?

20 minutes at the most

And this is when the government statistics start to not be trusted. Trumps attack on the truth - there is nowhere to hide. Fight it everywhere

The only time we in the military should do parades. Returning from deployments after beating dictators and restoring freedom and peace. Outside of that, no.

SM here - we only do parades when we come home from defeating dictators and bad guys. This ain’t it. Prefer the money goes back to beating cancer or helping kids starving in Africa.

Misunderstanding or incompetence mixed with a dose of arrogance and a sprinkle of narcissism?

NPR is as unbiased as you can get. They stick to the facts and people don’t like that. Fight for them.

As a SM the right message on this is not to attack the pay raises of Service Members especially the enlisted who definitely deserve it. Instead pivot and focus on fraud waste and abuse - the military acquisitions process is perfect for Elon to check but he won’t (his own contracts of course)

As a SM - the winning message about the DOD budget is not being critical of Service Members pay checks. They, especially enlisted deserve it. Focus on fraud waste and abuse - military acquisitions is perfect target for that - pivot to why Elon isn’t working on that (ie contracts)

Crockett: He wants there to be a portion of the budget that goes up to $1 trillion on the defense side. They have failed the very last seven audits. So why would they continue to get raises, which they always do. Yet we're going to hurt the most vulnerable amongst us.

Maybe if you didn’t fire your entire Tesla comms/PR team they would have reached out for a comment 🤷‍♂️

That’s on you Elon…

Build up. Add small businesses on the first floor. Build out mass transit rail. Add bike lanes. And boom, you got it

Sit down and grab a cold one, let me tell you a story….

You’re a young lad. No older than 16. The son of a farmer near the village of Lexington on the outskirts of Boston, in the Massachusetts Colony. Your family owns a plot of land that you and your father till, raise crops, and sell at market.

What a surprise - former junior Officer who once outside of his company grade level comfort zone found it difficult to perform to the level expected of a SecDef is being forced out.

WHO COULD HAVE EXPECTED THIS?!?!

The militia flee. The ‘Battle of Lexington’ is over. Eight colonists are dead. The British regroup and march on to Concord.

The American Revolution has begun. 250 years ago yesterday.

But, as the militia start to back away a shot rings out. ‘The shot heard round the world’. A musket fires. No one knows who fired first but it is quickly followed by several more. The British in line open fire. Men of the militia are hit. The British advance with bayonets….

on horseback rides to the front between the two formations in line. He orders the militia to disperse and leave. CPT Parker, acutely aware you are outnumbered orders you to leave the field and so you do….

but know they are no match for the British Regulars.

As the British advance you hear CPT Parker shout out “Stand your ground; don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here."

So you stand and you wait. The British march onto the green and an Officer…
