Lead Post reporter on that story Alex Horton served in the infantry in Iraq.
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?

HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

it is time for Donald Trump to strategically moderate by not doing fascism and staying awake during meetings

#TN07 reminder, from @politico.com today:

> “If our victory margin is single digits, the conference may come unhinged,” one senior House Republican said. A loss would be catastrophic and the conference would “explode,” the Republican added.
House Republicans sweat Tennessee election, despite Hudson’s assurances

I wish there was a precedent for what happens when a demagogue picks out a vulnerable minority group and labels them as subhuman. I wonder what the next step is and whether any innocent people get hurt. And I wonder whether the demagogue's followers go on trial when the whole thing is over.
here's Trump's full racist rant about MN's Somali community: "Somalians ripped off that state for billions. And they contribute nothing... Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage. These aren't people that work... They come from hell & do nothing but bitch. We don't want them"

so-called "greatest" generation but had zero grindset be real
This generation that fought the big war — all the jokes, culture, songs, it’s all self-effacing, self-deprecating, tongue in cheek. Being an authentic American man was joking about avoiding work, and taking it easy.

No chest thumping, self-promotion.

WW2 stories are myth, but myths convey values

how did she think "I Know Jew Stuff Unlike These Jews" was going to go
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

Statehood for D.C. is an ethical obligation at this point, required to protect the rights of our residents to govern ourselves against such out-of-state troops being sent to patrol our city.
NEW: Republican-led states, in a new filing at the D.C. Circuit, say D.C. residents are irrelevant, D.C. belongs to everyone else. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The filing is led by the South Carolina and West Virginia attorneys general. Both states sent troops to DC.

the primary thing that TPUSA provides to young conservatives is a blueprint for weaponizing the abject cowardice of university administrators against individual teachers and instructors, and university admins should take a long look in the mirror and think about what that says about them

this is how you get cop culture
There also became this notion that the job of a leader was to “get everyone home”. The mission came second (if at all). This creates an environment where any death is deemed preventable “if only we did X”

IMO this is one of the biggest hurdles to pivoting to LSCO but also creates LOAC violations
It’s actually good to adhere to LOAC when waging war amongst a population that will be part of any solution to the conflict. To state otherwise is an admission that you don’t understand the environment nor the ultimate purpose of why you’ve taken up arms.

Former army clemency & parole board member here. Boards I was on for GWOT war criminals — Mahmudiyah murders; Gibbs’s kill squad — had the common denominator of poor leadership. Leadership vacuum filled by “leaders” who viewed others as sub-human. We’re witnessing the same but at the national level.
