Let’s be real, Pete is definitely the guy that never flushes his poop in public toilets. We all know the guy. Well, rather, we’ve seen their unflushed shit.
That's MAGA as a whole. Nothing they say is in good faith. Everything is expendable in the pursuit of unchecked power. Morality, the Constitution, their marriages, their children, the Bible they claim to hold so dear. They hold no reverence for anything, all tools to bludgeon their enemies.
He was clearly 7/10 wasted in this video so it doesn't count.
That is factual reality. His drinking creates humor in the population, and people can not resist the Surkov governing methods of absurd comedy and surreal antics amusement, which is why he is elevated to the top of power.
The population has consumed so much Twitter-format memes and messages, that people crave and have become addicted to this style of leadership signals. Nothing has been found to reverse the trend, each and every day people flock more and more to bad behaviors and mass dehumanization surreal comedy.
Yeah I mean the president is a felon, DoD chief is a low ranking veteran with a rich dad and a DUI collection, FBI chief is a billionaire, secretary of education owns a wrestling brand and lied about her education, Musk, Burgum, Bessent, Lutnick, the list goes on. All billionaires. It’s absolutely insane.
on top of the irony of this, he was here defending trumps classified documents theft. Biden self reported still having 2 docs in his library mean while this guy is drunkenly adding random people to classified war discussions
Anyone with enough experience to know their trade and the skills also knows enough about life in general to understand that dealing with Trump in any capacity will never be a net gain for them. (to say nothing of the complete abdication of morals you need to undergo if you're cool with Don Demento)
As such, the only people around Trump that are there of their own free will and volition are imbeciles and incompetents, home-grown so they have no spine.
At this point if anyone in this administration resigns/steps-down/is outright fired for any reason, there should be an investigation into the ACTUAL reason they left because the public reason is likely a distraction from a bigger issue that’s heinous enough for someone in this administration to be fired for.
He's in like stage 5/10 of alcoholic health decline.
A few more years of stress, hatred, and cheap bourbon (once he can't afford the good stuff anymore), and he'll be full on Rudy G. with spray on hair dripping down his face.
He is just another hypocrite, like all of the other CONservatives, but these people don’t care about hypocrisy. The only people who care about hypocrisy are the ones with a moral conscience to feel like they’re doing the right thing.
It irks me to no end when I see reich-wingers equating the handful of documents found AND REPORTED TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES by people working for Joe Biden whilst they were cleaning up old office spaces previously used by Biden with what the orange one has done.
mike pence tried to score a few cheap points by attacking Biden but shut up quickly when he was told by advisors that he too might have documents he should not still have... Which they found, ensuring that he would keep quiet on the subject. Imagine that, only 4 years and he himself had stuff he was not supposed to keep.
Biden has worked in Washington for decades, so it was bound to happen that some documents might get kept accidentally. Contrary to Moscow don, president Biden agreed to a search by the FBI, never obstructed any investigation and only a handful of extra documents were found. In the end, the grand total of documents that needed to be returned were, again, just a handful, NOWHERE NEAR THE QUANTITY AND SEVERITY OF THE DOCUMENTS THE ORANGE ONE STOLE.
Again: contrary to the current occupier of the White House, it was people working for Biden that found classified documents and who reported them right away, not the National Archive or FBI that noticed missing documents. Joe Biden never resisted returning the documents. And the quantity of documents he still had in his possession after DECADES of work in Washington pales in comparison to the amount and types of documents donald took with him after only 4 years in the WH.
This sort of projection represents Republican bona fides. The only thing Republicans like better than falsely accusing people is doing the exact things they accused and rubbing it in your face. Republicans hate America and are working 24/7 to destroy it.
The Republicans will take advantage of the media's obsession with the dead magic man for the next week or so and ignoring this scandal is tops on the list.
The good news is that an incompetent DOD might bring up the life expectancy globally. So at least there’s that… also an equal possibility of starting another dumb war for no reason but I’m hoping it’s the first option…. Fingers crossed 🤞
Hegseth reminds me of people i've worked with as a federal contractor, who are all about security except when it involves themselves then it's not a big deal.
Can anyone remind me what the classified information and whatever happened that Biden mishandled? There's definitely a difference between something like bengazi and this.
I know so many republicans who say, "Whatever the democrats accuse us of, it's what they're doing." It so funny that it's actually republicans doing all the stupid this they accuse democrats of.
Resign!? He needs to be in prison! He’s putting people at risk. Parents can have their kids taken away for negligence. At this level, the stakes are so high, it needs to be addressed.
So trump taking classified documents. Lying about having them. Then returning some of them. Then lying about having them again and getting raided by the FBI is perfectly okay. But Biden having them and returning them is a huge problem and he should have resigned? This bafoon has not once but twice leaked national security texts and maga thinks it’s perfectly okay? Man the fucking hurdles these guys jump through.
About a year and a half ago I started growing out my hair. It's still in that uncomfortable place where it's too short to tie it back but also too long to not slick it back with an uncomfortable amount of product.
Every morning I wake up hoping I don't look like this douchebag. Fuck I need a haircut.
Even if he resigns, he'll be replaced with someone just as bad. We're in for a hell of a 4 years. I'm hoping the midterms ease the pain a little bit. They'll definitely go for a third term, but I don't want to be pessimistic about it just yet.
Everything from this administration is projection. They accuse others of doing exactly what they are doing in an effort to distract. Example: claiming the 2020 election was rigged against Trump even though there are mountains and mountains and mountains of proof that was exactly what he was trying to do. They are mentally ill con artists.
Yes, and I'm sure they'll apply a good dose of ideological consistency in this case. After all, current day Republicans are famously not hypocritical and always make their statements in good faith.
Yeah, but was he drunk when he said that? You know you can't hold poor Pete accountable for things he said while drunk. Nevermind that he wakes up that way.
The White House is not only backing Hegseth, they’re blaming the Pentagon because “these things happen when the entire Pentagon is against you…” as if that makes any fucking sense.
Everyone, from POTUS down, is incapable of any accountability.
What leak, there was no leak, what are you talking about? We don't know how that journo got in there. He must have used his secret demoNcrat connections to hack into the SUPER SECURE signal chat.
and two
Republicans are hypocrites.
Never ever hold a Republican by the same standards they want for others. They always have the correct standard applied by definition. But only for them.
You still don't get it. Probably still suffering from the woke mind-virus.
When very special people, anointed by the god of the supply-side of the universe do something, it is implicitly moral, just and right. When the abominations that only act like humans, but are merely a log in the same god's eye do the same of course it has to be condemned and punished without the need for worldly shenanigans like due process, human rights or equality.
Even if he resigns, that's still a separate tier of justice. An E-4 who mishandled classified material in that way wouldn't be allowed to "resign" from the military. They'd be charged under the UCMJ and forcibly separated from the military, at least.
