  1. This address my question: Take it with a grain of salt though, as it was written by the liberal rag (checks notes...) The National Review. https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/yes-pete-hegseth-should-be-fired-for-what-he-texted-and-for-lying-about-it/
  2. Ultimately? Nah, probably not, at least not to the extent that it should. That doesn't mean it won't be a fun ride. The group "American Oversight" has already sued the administration over this. And the case has been assigned to a Judge. That judge? In true comedic fashion, we now have a situation in which the government will be arguing that this wasn't secret, to the exact same guy who they have dropped the State Secrets Privilege on for asking about publicly available flight data in the Alien Enemies lawsuit. You can't make this shit up.
  3. So in this situation, what's the mechanism for classifying material? Obviously everything Pete texted SHOULD be classified, but was it actually? I ask because It actually feels like the administration is arguing semantics when they say it wasn't classified- as in, it should have been but technically wasn't. It would certainly be on brand if they're using the incompetence of failure to classify the material as their excuse for why it wasn't illegal to share it.
  4. That's what is so different this time. In his 1st term, those people did exist. Not that they were good people, and they didn't stick around long, but there always seemed to be someone who talked him out of the really stupid shit. That doesn't exist now.
  5. Meanwhile, on the same day the Atlantic story comes out alleging the gross mishandling of war operations, we get this:
  6. The memes have begun.
  7. Da Bomb Party?
  8. "The fact that I didn't crash the car is proof that there was no risk to driving blindfolded with my hands behind my back and my balls draped over the steering wheel."
  9. Frankly, Even in Trump's 1st term this would have been a major deal. Now, it will be forgotten- or upstaged- by the end of the week.
  10. Is this bad? I feel like this is bad.
  11. Except that Dollars are absolutely proportional to education success. https://www.shankerinstitute.org/blog/school-funding-and-equal-educational-opportunity
  12. The actual quote: Brutal.
  13. Real quote about the new jet: https://www.defensenews.com/air/2025/03/21/boeing-wins-contract-for-ngad-fighter-jet-dubbed-f-47/
  14. Maybe, but I don't think so this time. A big theme of this episode is that the innies are adolescents- as was highlighted by Mark's lengthy Innie to Outie video conversation. I think the last scene was just an extension of that from both of them. What they did is something young teenagers would do in the moment.
  15. A theory:
  16. I don't know, I can think of one particular forum here that, in light of recent trends, could use a little purging of old posts. Not because there's anything inherently wrong with them, just that it might not matter in the future.
  17. Confirmed. Interestingly, if you substitute "District Court/Federal judge" with "Billionaire Oligarch", I pretty much agree with him.
  18. The Judge's (remarkably measured) response:
  19. The nomination hearing will be glorious though.
  20. This motion is bananas. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.278436/gov.uscourts.dcd.278436.37.0_2.pdf How it starts: How it concludes: There's no way this was written by an attorney, right? This is a political memo, not a legal document. Stephen Miller authored this- at the very least directed it. You can't convince me otherwise.
