2. Hegseth, unlike Trump, does not have immunity for “official actions”

Maybe Hegseth and Trump could also send 500 National Guard members to Kentucky, to help administer pertussis vaccines.

Funny how terrorism goes up when the people charged with investigating and stopping terrorists are told to do something else.
Also, didn’t we have 1,000 FBI agents working on scrubbing the Epstein Files for Trump’s name?

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...
