Hegseth will have his carefully selected group of questioners in the room sitting in their assigned seats and he will have his seating chart with him so he knows exactly who to call on so things don’t get too stressful for him.

Foreign policy by fairytales
The cruel irony is that Trump will likely use his war with Iran as a pretext to further suppress dissent at home.
We must resist his efforts to stifle freedom of speech, make warrantless searches and arrests of Americans, and put more military onto our streets.
Boebert: Have you reviewed any Epstein files that were released that you believe reference or relate to those specific 2016 claims regarding the Podesta emails Comet ping pong pizza used as code possibly.
Clinton: Pizzagate was totally made up. I can't believe you're even referencing it
So far we’ve heard 12 different primary reasons for the war, 7 different main objectives, and 5 different exit strategies.

All she had to say was it was Iranian proxies in Iraq & Afghanistan who killed Americans — that’s the MAGA talking point anyway. But apparently she’s just repeating the point without knowing why. (Of course, the proxies were attacking Americans who were illegally occupying another nation)

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustn’t let this war do so.
