This is outrageous. When will we deep-six this sad sack of a defense secretary? With a secret keeper like this, foreign agents don't need to risk the lives of any spies. They have Hegseth working for them right here on the inside. CONGRESS - FIRED THIS GUY NOW! He's a national security risk!

What outrageous step is the step that will help you decide that now is when you will speak up? Is this the one for you? Call Senators not just your own. Join a protest. Circle the block at a protest and lay on your horn. Write to senators and committee members. This is NOT normal.

Good grief. This entire regime needs to be impeached and removed. I had a nice thought the other day, what if we could take back the House in the mid terms and then impeach BOTH the Felon and Vance? We'd have President Jeffries. (Yes, I know, the odds are slim to none, but it's a nice thought.)
