Thinker, amateur philosopher, a good day has at least 1 idea rolling around in my head. And a devout atheist, formerly an agnostic, formerly but still formally a Roman Catholic by birth. Please excommunicate me.
Everyone of us is 'vetted' constantly.
Tests in school, interviews, drivers test, gun permits, getting credit ... ad nauseum.
Tell me one vetting that guarantees future behavior accurately.

Please talk to your fellow lawmakers.
The 2nd strike on boat debris w/ 2 survivors clinging it to them, is inarguably an act of murder.
Hegseth should be impeached and prosecuted..

It's been reported that there were 2 strikes on the same boat.
1st strike may be illegal and there is an argument to be had.
2nd strike to kill 2 survivors from the 1st is INARGUABLY illegal and immoral.
You don't kill survivors.
PERIOD!
That's cold blooded MURDER!

While it might be plausible that the first strike, maybe, and I stress "maybe" justified, although no proof of that has been forthcoming.
The second strike on 2 defenseless people is not justifiable - at all.
This was murder, this was giving and following an illegal order!

You all remember there was never any vetting of tee-Rump.
Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean
TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting
Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?
TRUMP: You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person

As of November 25, 2025, there have been 378 mass shootings in the United States.
1 guy apparently goes off his nut and we have this reaction, trying to blame someone else.
None of this makes sense.
It technically isn't even a mass shooting.

Most of the shit today is centered around the DOJ - AG.
A lot of states elect their AG.
Maybe we should start looking at making the AG an elected position.
Another thing we should consider looking at is, why is the VP basically one persons decision?

US Senator Kelly is protected by the 1st Amendment AND the Speech or Debate Clause, found in Article I, Section 6 of the U.S. Constitution.
He restates the Uniform Code of Military Justice on "illegal orders"
And the t Rump GOP goes after him.
