A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”

Put plainly, he’s an opportunistic psychopath. He sought this job because of the promise of war crimes.
Opportunistic psychopaths are often attracted to fascist movements because they want permission to murder innocent people.

When Amon Göth killed my grandfather’s cousin in Plaszow, he did so w/o reason or warning. He just felt like killing someone. So he took out his gun and shot Roman in the head.
Hegseth - and the people carrying out his orders - need to be tried in The Hague for this

Ok I’m going to put this as simply as I can.

1. Pete Hegseth wants to murder people. It’s why he sought the job.

2. The admin communicates in bad faith.

3. The purpose of giving a legal rationale is to give “respectable” elites moral cover. And to deliberately waste your time.

Holy fucking shit this is full-on klan content. The gothic font, the “western civilization” the 11 stars (# of confederate states).

They're not praising Lincoln, they're saying the confederacy ultimately will win.

And make no mistake: As an opportunistic psychopath, Hegseth is going to keep murdering people as long as he believes he will get away with it.

Again, this is why it’s so important to make prosecutions a central campaign and political issue. Perhaps THE central issue.

When you’re asking yourself why Pete Hegseth would order a second strike to kill the two people who survived the first attack on their fishing boat, this is why.

It has nothing to do with drugs or with criminals; the legal arguments are beside the point.

Hegseth wanted to murder people. That’s it.

Effectively there is no *one* person performing the duties of President of the United States right now. We are in an interregnum with an occupied throne.
The fundamental thing to understand about this administration is the president is a grumpy retiree. He has no interest in working anymore. Which leads to him being pissed that he is getting asked a question, pissed he has to show up and work, the scheming viziers running the show, etc..

The Democrats' failure to make the positive case for more immigration (which is easy to make) and a smoother, quicker legal process is one of their most cstastrophic mistakes.
i think we have to get off the defensive on immigration

Trump has never once in his life extemporaneously used the phrase "western civilization." He was once asked about western liberalism and thought they were talking about California Democrats. One of the more blatant tells for a Miller-written screed.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

There is no constitutionally legitimate scenario in which we are being de facto governed by the White House Deputy Chief of Staff using a half-dead president as his sock puppet. We went out of our way to amend the Constitution on precisely this point.
