Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

So are we still more upset about Diverse, but qualified, yet presumed unqualified hires, than DUI hires?

Pete Hegseth needs to go for the safety of the United States & the allies that we still have.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Hey now! Just want to draw awareness that this type of criticism was off limits in the United States during approved riots of 2020.

It is fair criticism that only one side (however unmeritorious) has institutions fall down heavily upon it when behaving in the same way, while the other side gets puff pieces in the media and "scientists" write papers in peer-reviewed journals about how the applicable riots are net-on-net good due to the policies the rioters are advocating for.
