If Joe Biden's son-in-law was flying around the Middle East as an unofficial Secretary of State while also working on business deals for his company with the same people he was meeting with on behalf of the US government, I'm pretty sure it would be a bigger story 🤔

I don't see any reason why government officials should be protected from reputational damage for their actions while working in an official capacity.

Somehow I don't think this was part of the "Venezuela Model" POTUS had in mind for Iran.

Incredible that just 24 hours after this tweet, it's being reported that America is preparing to put boots on the ground in Iran.

This is a great novel. Written from a grunt's perspective but reads like a hardboiled noir against the backdrop of what it was like in Iraq back in the day.

It's also weird to see all these youtubers acting like they have somehow unearthed the cheat code that will allow America to easily achieve victory over Iran.

Heggy Pete steps up to the podium every day like "I'M FIGHTING THIS WAR TO AVENGE THE HONOR OF EVERY SECOND LIEUTENANT WHO DIDN'T MAKE GENERAL BECAUSE HE HAD A 2.3 GPA AND BEAT HIS WIFE."

I wasted my life reading books and shit.

The moment we're in changes or relationship with the government because most of us normal types think, well I could never be DCIA, SECDEF, etc because I'm not at all qualified. Today I can honestly say I would do a better job than the current chuckleheads.

We're talking about AI psychosis but honestly it feels like an amped up version of what I've seen in people for two decades. Search engines were breaking people's minds before AI. We should have seen it coming. People treated Google like it was a truth machine rather than a card catalog.

I Watched 6 Hours of DOGE Bro Testimony. Here's What They Had to Say For Themselves The hours of videos provide fascinating, or perhaps horrifying, insight into the thinking of someone inside DOGE.

These people are a disgrace, and I hope the shame follows them for the rest of their lives. It is also a disgrace that we have a system that took a bunch of children out of the playpen and told them to start slashing programs.

It's weird seeing how influencers have turned CQB into choreography on youtube. These guys look like ballerinas clearing their mom's kitchen with ARs.

bluntly, these are the complaints of the person at the cocktail party looking for a way to shock guests and feels that their money and position insulate them from negative consequences
