βBending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isnβt acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.β

THAT staffer is being punished β so why arenβt Hegseth & Waltz???
Calling something that definitely isnβt a hoax a hoax is helpful because it shows none of the other stuff they called a hoax was a hoax either

We are not the same. And they wonβt learn a damn thing from it cuz theyβll get their bailout somehow.
Why am I feeling uncomfortable?

No charges, no attorneys, no hearings, no trial. Just conjecture and brute force could be enough to justify completely dehumanizing you, too.

Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

And as ever Jeffrey Goldberg and the Atlantic were telling the truth.
This is why journalism matters.

The Senate or House Armed Services Chairs can easily and quickly verify who is lying about this. If Hegseth blatant lied about this on camera tonight, how in the world can he continue in this job?

The other thing is the CBC is a great channel news in North America.
Quote from Anne Frankβs diary: "Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared."

It amazes me that when women and others were offered equal opportunities to education as white men, men fell behind. No wonder they want to restrict access to everyone but themselves.
