It's Pete! F you, libs! America wins!!**

And all of this happened under the leadership of the people Trump/Hegseth are trying to expose. Like Trump, Hegseth is not what I would build in a lab to be POTUS or SecDef but I trust them to conduct their business slanted more towards the will/good of the American republic over the interest of the MIC. Just like the NIH being steered by pharma, I don't think we need a defense dept steered by the MIC and I think we've been in that position for a while.
I agree with this by and large. I think Trump is in it for Trump, primarily. But he earned my vote by being less crazy than the Dem candidate.

And he is the ONLY presidential candidate with the balls to talk about getting rid of illegal aliens.

I hope Hegseth gets/ keeps his life together and I hope we don’t get involved in any large scale military action.

ND...... Panic Attacks

Ok my fellow venters.....
Has any of you ever experienced or know someone that has panic attacks? Mine started out of the blue around Christmas. It's crazy. They come from out of nowhere and are very hard to deal with. Skin crawling hot flashes, rapid heartbeat, and very high blood pressure.......then in a little while it's all gone. Then you are so self-conscience about having another one, it just goes round and round. Been to the doctor. He put me on a mild anxiety and a mild blood pressure medication. Had blood work done and all came back fine. I am 62 and for my age in good physical shape. These attacks are totally out of left field and are slowly making my life a daily grind.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

But our government is getting ripped off by military contractors and are fully unprepared for war. We can’t even make our own ships anymore. Crazy. Both R and D are responsible for that.

The fat black dude absolutely sucked. Your preferred qualifications didn't protect us from that ahole.
Of course they didn’t. These choices are not mutually exclusive. No one expects a Republican to nominate some flaming liberal. There are dozens of qualified conservative Republican Generals and Admirals, etc. who could lead the pentagon. And none were chosen. Same with AG. Same with HHS.

Qualified folks were almost intentionally skipped over.

Pete has a shot to be okay, as long a there are no actual wars he has to fight. He can set the tone and culture of the DoD, but if he’s called into real action as the leader of America’s military, he’s so far out of his league. Hopefully, this decision will not cost anyone their lives.

And more than anything, I pray for peace.
