"There would be a special appointee that would focus on sexual assault in the military. How's that fucking going? Have we seen that? Or have we actually just seen women get purged from the military?" @timmiller.bsky.social and @radiofreetom.bsky.social on Joni Ernst's "promise" from Pete Hegseth:
A real question: What rules of engagement briefing are the armed troops in DC receiving? I’d love to see the actual ROE and EOF checklist. And PID—what exactly does “the enemy” look like? I think these are valid questions esp given that they fired all the top JAG officers at the pentagon.
🤬🤬🤬
"...this week's [Trump] dictator soft launch..." Yeah. That pretty much nails it.
That was a good podcast.
I don’t think Ernst resigned of her own free will-she’s too stubborn for that. She was pressured. Between her disastrous town hall and the special election in Iowa, she’s a liability.
Bingo
Great Pod...
Good show. But I have to object re the characterization of old school racism w this admin. The exception for those they know does not apply. There are POC he uses as tokens and cover (increasingly thin on the ground in the second term) but when have we seen him treat anyone Black with respect.
I know one women who didn't join the military, but was still an American J6 hero.
Good point !
Great interview, thanks!
Makes me cringe knowing that the army crest (187th Infantry) he wears, I once wore as well. "Back in my day" the enlisted wouldve made his life hell with that cockiness.
C'mon, stop being all DEI.
This quote reminds me if the 90s when sexual harassment in the workplace training began. A guy friend went to a convention where biz leaders were told this was coming and how to prepare. I asked him, "What did they tell you?" He replied, "Don't hire women."
Your hangover prevention treatment didn’t work?!?!
