Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it?

You’re kidding.

If this person sat next to you on a bus or train and started ranting about Bruce Springsteen in this way, you would get up and move to a different seat.

In the United States, we have him the nuclear codes.

Trump administration freezes more than $2.2 billion after Harvard rejects its demands The government announced it is freezing more than $2.2 billion, hours after the university refused to make changes it said would "dictate what private universities can teach."

Though I have no real sympathy for universities that secure millions in bloated admissions costs, the idea that education can be cooerced into falling in line with this administration’s warped ideology will have a chilling effect on LEGITIMATE broad-minded instruction.

I'd rather a poor person "abuse the system" and end up with more than the bare minimum it takes to survive than a rich person abuse the system to make more money than anyone could ever need.

Democratic House Rep. Gil Cisneros says Pete Hegseth will eventually have to testify before the Armed Services Committee:

"If they think he's not going to get asked about this, they're not living in reality. He's gonna have to answer the call at some point, so why not do it now?"

Exactly!
