From The Mouths Of Idiots

WE all know that Donny is in far right field and that his supporters, for whatever reason, go along with the stupidity…..but these two MAGA Congress members are just ripe with stupid.

First one Jon Husted….Of course a MAGA idiot….

A GOP senator is catching flak for saying that Americans need to work more, prompting many to point out how his own party created the problem he’s trying to address.

“As we have demographic challenges, as we have lower birth rates, an aging workforce, less immigration, we’re going to need people to do more work,” Sen. Jon Husted said in a clip shared by independent journalist Aaron Rupar.

So this moron thinks that we American workers are slacking?  Great coming from an a/hole that does not have to work for a living….all he needs is a good pair of knee pads.

Next the mouth from Florida Rick Scott….he explains the high price of gas (and it is hilarious that anyone believes it)….

Florida Sen. Rick Scott says the high cost of gas is a price worth paying to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon.

Scott, an ally of President Donald Trump, was questioned on CNN Thursday about rising fuel prices, a problem exacerbated by restricted oil tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, which carries about one-fifth of the world’s oil supply.

When confronted by how Floridians are paying an average of $1.24 more per gallon since Trump’s war began, the Republican senator acknowledged the “terrible” spike,but said having increased prices was just the cost of living in a world where Iran wouldn’t be able to drop a nuclear bomb on Americans.

“When the people are unhappy about paying $1.24 more, what do you tell them about how long they‘re going to be paying more for gas?” The Source anchor Kaitlan Collins asked.

“Well, you know, Kaitlan, my background—I grew up in public housing. I watched my parents struggle for food and struggle for jobs. So I think gas prices—I hate them going up. But here‘s what‘s fascinating: I mean, Democrats don‘t care about high gas prices. They tried to cause it to make sure we all bought an electric vehicles. Trump‘s tried to get gas prices down. He did his first term. He‘s done it this term,“ Scott said.

“But there‘s a trade-off right now,” he continued, echoing what Trump said earlier in the day. “I want my family, your family, to be safe. And is there a cost right now? It‘s terrible that we have higher gas prices, but the trade-off is we‘re going to live in freedom and democracy and we don‘t have somebody—a lunatic—that‘s going to drop a nuclear weapon on us. I don’t know what the price tag is, but it’s worth it to me.”

First there is zero evidence that Iran had such intention of nuking the US and second I have no use for anyone that supposedly grew up poor that has no sympathy for the poor.

Both these twats are worthless lumps MAGA manure.

They feed into the ignorance that prevails…..and the ignorance prevails because the American voter is LAZY.

One of my favorite quotes….”Stupidity is the Deliberate Cultivation of Ignorance”

And that cultivation has proved bountiful for the morons of the nation.

Justice Thomas–Just Another Political Hack

We know the Chief Justice Roberts is a political hack ans now Justice Thomas has opened his mouth and once again proved that he is a hack as well.

I have known he was one for years  and his wife is worse than him….there are so many times he should have recused himself but instead vote to assist the people in the suit.

His latest performance is around the abortion pill….

Justice Clarence Thomas sharply criticized a recent Supreme Court ruling preserving nationwide access to an abortion medication, arguing the drug manufacturers were operating a “criminal enterprise.”

On Thursday (May 14), the Supreme Court voted 7-2 to uphold nationwide access to the abortion pill mifepristone, according to The Guardian.

In October 2025, the state of Louisiana sued the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for allowing mifepristone to be prescribed remotely and mailed to patients, arguing that mailing the medication violated the state’s abortion restrictions and federal law.

This ruling halted a May 1 order from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals that would have significantly restricted nationwide access to mifepristone.

In Thomas’s dissent, he argued that the plaintiffs — Danco Laboratories and GenBioPro, two mifepristone manufacturers — had not shown they would experience irreparable harm if access to the medication remained blocked.

“Applicants are not entitled to a stay of an adverse court order based on lost profits from their criminal enterprise,” Thomas wrote. “They cannot, in any legally relevant sense, be irreparably harmed by a court order that makes it more difficult for them to commit crimes.”

He also pointed to the Comstock Act, passed in 1873, which broadly bans the mailing of anything considered “obscene, lewd or lascivious”, arguing mifepristone fits that description.

Thomas was joined by Justice Samuel Alito, who argued the ruling conflicted with the court’s 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, which gave each state the individual authority to regulate abortion.

In a similar case from 2024, the Supreme Court ruled against a lawsuit filed by The Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine (AHM), a coalition of conservative medical organizations and physicians.

The lawsuit challenged FDA rules allowing expanded access to mifepristone, including mail delivery and telehealth prescriptions.

(binnetweork.com)

Yo Thomas the only criminal enterprise here is the Supreme Court.

Then Thomas spoke at the Univ of Texas about ‘god given’ rights and how Progressives are destroying that….

…

Justice Thomas is perhaps one of the most revered living justices on the right. Conservative lauded his speech, calling it “extraordinary.” “In addition to its sweeping condemnation of progressivism, his speech is an immediate classic in civics formation,” wrote Andrew Walker, professor of Ethics and Public Theology at Southern Baptist Seminary. “But that the speech’s content is now so foreign, so unfamiliar, to so many, reveals how successful progressivism has been in memory-holing our national inheritance. Progressivism is a civic, moral, and theological cancer. It must be fought against and defeated if there is to be an American order (and moral decency).”

https://www.beliefnet.com/columnists/news/2026/05/clarence-thomas-warns-progressivism-threatens-americas-god-given-rights

Sorry Bubba the only cancer on society is your Oreo ass and the ilk that you represent.

BTW….what are those ‘god given rights?’  Name them!

These people like Thomas and his ilk are pathetic and creepy and will lie just to keep their positions in life….time for this one and well all of them to step down and let more competent people take over the Court….these people are doing more harm to this country than anyone they point their fingers at in their BS….

Donny Proposed, Iran Answered

I am sucker for this crap.  I feel compelled to let my readers know what is happening with Iran because their child may have to fight this stupid lame ass war.

Donny sent a letter with his proposal and now Iran has answered and Donny is butt hurt.

President Trump said on Sunday that Iran’s response to the latest US proposal to reach a deal was “totally unacceptable,” signaling that the two sides are still not close to reaching a deal.

“I have just read the response from Iran’s so-called ‘Representatives.’ I don’t like it — TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! Thank you for your attention to this matter,” the president wrote on Truth Social.

Trump made similar comments to Axios reporter Barak Ravid, saying, “I don’t like their letter. It’s inappropriate. I don’t like their response… They have been tapping along many nations for 47 years.”

The president said that he spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday about Iran’s response. According to Israeli media, Israeli officials are trying to convince their US counterparts to launch major airstrikes aimed at destroying Iran’s energy infrastructure.

An Iranian source told Iran’s Tasnim news agency that Trump’s rejection of Tehran’s response was “of no importance” because no one “writes proposals to please Trump.” The source added that the “negotiating team should draft proposals only for the rights of the Iranian people, and when Trump is dissatisfied with them, naturally that is better.”

Iranian media has reported that the Iranian response, which came after the US provided its response to a 14-point Iranian proposal, is focused on bringing a permanent end to the conflict and other hostilities in the region, including in Lebanon, where the Israeli military killed dozens of people over the weekend.

Iranian sources said Iran is also asking for an immediate end to the US blockade, the lifting of US sanctions, the release of frozen assets overseas, and the ability to freely sell its oil. The Wall Street Journal reported that Iran had offered to move some of its enriched uranium to a third country, but that hasn’t been confirmed by Iranian sources, which suggest the idea is to end the hostilities before negotiating on the nuclear issue.

Of course he spoke with BiBi….to get his next instructions.

Donny is butt hurt because he has taken on someone who will not submit to his bullying……and that makes him angry.

Anyone opposed to this stupid war with Iran is a traitor…..so says the clown of DC….he was mainly speaking of Dems but I sure he meant all of us…..

I read the Fake News saying that I am under “pressure” to make a Deal. THIS IS NOT TRUE! I am under no pressure whatsoever, although, it will all happen, relatively quickly! Time is not my adversary, the only thing that matters is that we finally, after 47 years, straighten out the MESS that other Presidents let happen because they didn’t have the Courage or Foresight to do what had to be done with respect to Iran. We’re in it, and it will be done RIGHT, and we won’t let the Weak and Pathetic Democrats, TRAITORS ALL, who for years have been talking about the Dangers of Iran, and that something has to be done, but now, since I’m the one doing it, belittle the accomplishments of our Military and the Trump Administration.

This is being perfectly executed, on the scale of Venezuela, just a bigger, more complex operation. The result will be the same. In my First Term, I built the Greatest Military our Country has ever seen, including adding Space Force. In my Second Term, I am properly and judiciously using our Military to solve problems left to us by others of far less understanding or competence. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Words of a babbling idiot.

I guess that makes me a traitor….a person that did not neglect mny duty to country to avoid military service.

This dim witted shit can kiss my ass!

Why Is This Strait So Damn Important?

I write this for those that are casual observers of thew international world….there are many that feel this is just too much and why is our little Donny being such a twat about it.

The Strait of Hormuz By The numbers…..

Iran’s grip on the Strait of Hormuz has jolted the world economy, causing a spike in fuel prices that has rippled through other sectors with effects far beyond the Middle East. Iran effectively seized control of the critical waterway after the US and Israel attacked it on Feb. 28. Weeks of heavy bombing and a US naval blockade imposed last month have yet to loosen its grip, reports the AP. Iran says it will only reopen the strait if the war ends and the blockade is lifted. President Trump is seeking wider concessions, including the rollback of Iran’s disputed nuclear program. A look at the strait by the numbers:

  • 21 miles: This is the width of the Strait of Hormuz, which bends like an elbow, at its narrowest point between Iran and Oman. Ships follow narrow lanes to safely navigate the shallow water, making it even more of a chokepoint.
  • 20%: Before the war, a fifth of the world’s traded oil typically flowed through the Strait of Hormuz every day, as well as large supplies of natural gas, fertilizer, and other petroleum products.
  • 100-130: The number of ships that passed through the Strait each day before the war began, including oil tankers and cargo ships, according to research firm Lloyd’s List Intelligence.
  • 534: The number of ships that are believed to have passed through the strait since the start of hostilities through Monday, according to Lloyd’s List Intelligence. Many are believed to have carried Iranian oil. In normal times, an estimated 6,500 to 8,450 ships would have transited the Strait during the same period.
  • 50%: The amount that the average price of gas in the US has risen since the war began. The average price of a gallon was $4.56 on Thursday, according to AAA. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has also nearly doubled the cost of jet fuel.
  • Up to 10%: Insurance rates for ships have skyrocketed from 1% of the ship’s goods up to as much as 10%, according to shipping experts.
  • 45 million: The number of people who could experience hunger, mostly in Asia and Africa, if Strait does not open soon, according to the UN World Food Program. The blocking of fuel and fertilizer shipments could soon push the price of food and other necessities out of reach for those already in a precarious situation, it said.
  • 10: The number of mariners who have been killed since the Iran war began, according to the UN’s International Maritime Organization.
  • 32: The number of ships that have come under attack, according to the International Maritime Organization.
  • 1,550: The number of vessels, from 87 countries, currently stranded in the Persian Gulf, according to the US military.
  • 22,500: The number of mariners stranded on these ships, including many from South and Southeast Asia.
  • 15,000: The number of US soldiers, accompanied by 100 aircraft, committed to enforce Project Freedom, according to the US military. Trump’s initiative to guide ships through the strait was paused on Tuesday, just two days after he announced it.
  • 2: The number of ships that the US said it successfully guided through the strait as part of Project Freedom.

As you can see the Strait is a super important cog in world trade….

Does that answer ant questions you may have had?

Then the US should do all they can to punish Iran, right?

It may not be as simple as that infantile approach…..why?

US spy agencies see Iran holding out significantly longer under President Trump’s naval chokehold than the White House is signaling, reports the Washington Post. A CIA analysis concludes Iran could withstand the blockade for about three to four months—and potentially more—before hitting a far steeper economic cliff, according to four Post sources familiar with the document. It also finds that Iran’s missile forces remain largely intact: Roughly three-quarters of its mobile launchers and about 70% of its prewar missile stockpiles are believed to have survived US and Israeli strikes.

Trump has described Iran’s missile stockpile as “mostly decimated,” and the White House has said Iran is being “strangled economically” by the US blockade. The CIA analysis, however, suggests greater Tehran resiliency for a number of reasons, including the use of overland routes for oil. It also suggests Iran retains thousands of attack drones that could continue to threaten shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. If all goes well, the assessment could be moot soon: Iran is expected to respond to a new US peace plan that could result in the end of the war.

So without a valid ceasefire things will get worse for the consumer….I said valid….not some vague promise that does nothing but keep the billionaires rolling in dough.

This quote explains everything you need to know about Donny and his promises….

“We are 9 weeks into a 4 week war that we won 8 weeks ago”

Iran: Minute By Minute Brain Farts

Just about two days ago Donny and Lil Marco turned again and is ending the so-called blockade….

President Trump says that he has paused the US effort to guide stranded vessels out of the Strait of Hormuz to finalize an Iran deal. Trump announced the decision in a Truth Social post on Tuesday evening, saying he was pausing the effort for a short period to give space for US efforts to finalize a settlement with Iran to end the war, the AP reports.

  • “Based on the request of Pakistan and other Countries, the tremendous Military Success that we have had during the Campaign against the Country of Iran and, additionally, the fact that Great Progress has been made toward a Complete and Final Agreement with Representatives of Iran, we have mutually agreed that, while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect, Project Freedom (The Movement of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz) will be paused for a short period of time to see whether or not the Agreement can be finalized and signed,” Trump wrote.
  • The announcement came after military leaders and Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted on Tuesday that a ceasefire in the Middle East was still holding and that—while the conflict is not resolved—the initial major US military operation against Iran has concluded. Rubio told reporters at the White House that “Operation Epic Fury,” the attack the US and Israel mounted on Iran on Feb. 28, “is concluded” because its objectives were met, the AP reports. Rubio said recent clashes with Iran related to US efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz were “defensive in nature.”

Which is good news but then less than a day later Donny makes this announcement….

President Trump on Wednesday suggested that a deal to end the Iran war is indeed in the works—but he also warned Iran of new strikes should it balk. If Iran “agrees to give what has been agreed to,” the war will wrap up, wrote Trump on Truth Social, without providing specifics. But if they renege, bombing will resume “at a much higher level,” he added. His comments followed reports in Axios and Reuters that a peace deal between US and Iranian negotiators was imminent.

We will close this very soon,” a source in Pakistan tells Reuters. The news sent oil prices down, with Brent crude falling 10% to below $100 a barrel before leveling off after Trump’s warning, per the Wall Street Journal. It was back at $103 more recently. Earlier Wednesday, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard suggested it would soon allow commercial traffic to resume in the Strait of Hormuz if the US “threats” were over, notes Reuters. But nothing is certain: The New York Times reports that a spokesman for Iran’s parliamentary national security downplayed the Axios report about a one-page peace memorandum, describing it as “more a list of American wishes than a reality.”

What are these yahoos doing?

TACO will find a way to end this…..it is costing $72 billion in 60 days…..Donny needs top look like he is in charge (a wishful fallacy)….so he will cave and tell us how smart and clever he was to end this stupidity.

Are You a Domestic Terrorist?

The term is batted around these days and refers to anyone who thinks that this idiot in charge is a complete moron…..and that would be ME!

That aside the Donny group that pretends to govern this country (they are actually raping it but that is okay for the dude in charge cares not) has decided what makes one a domestic terrorist….

Donald Trump is asking for more money to hunt so-called “domestic terrorists” on the left—and it seems like they’re talking about you.

Buried in the FBI’s 2027 budget request to Congress was a request for funding efforts to implement the National Security Presidential Memorandum (NSPM-7), a national security strategy targeting supposed anti-American activity on the left that Trump signed in September, independent journalist Ken Klippenstein reported Sunday. The FBI requested funding for the recently created NSPM-7 Joint Mission Center, which brings together personnel from across 10 agencies working “to proactively identify networks and prosecute domestic terrorist and related criminal actors.”

What exactly are they looking for? Well, anything they disagree with.

“Commonly, this violent conduct relates to views associated with anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity; support for the overthrow of the U.S. Government (USG); extremism on migration, race, and gender. And hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality,” the budget stated.

According to the FBI, publicly expressing beliefs as banal as a critique of capitalism are now considered precursors for domestic terrorist activity.

Under NSPM-7, the Trump administration aims to target community organizers and protesters on the left. “Domestic terrorists exploit a variety of popular social media platforms, smaller websites with targeted audiences, and encrypted chat applications,” the budget stated. “They use these platforms to recruit new adherents, plan and rally support for in-person actions, and disseminate materials encouraging radicalization and mobilization to violence.”

The FBI requested $166.1 million and 328 positions, including five attorneys and 130 special agents, for its counterterrorism activities in the coming fiscal year, including plans to “implement National Security Presidential Memorandum / NSPM-7 requirements.”

Just Another Cabinet Meeting

Just more theater of the absurd.

Yesterday Donny and the merry band of sycophants held their 8th cabinet meeting and it was a doozy….from circumcision to punishing Dems…..a typical Donny pep rally….

President Trump opened a meeting with his Cabinet at the White House on Thursday by speaking about the ceasefire deal and his plans to travel to the Middle East. Trump said that he will be going to Egypt for a signing ceremony and that he has been invited to speak before the Knesset, the Israeli parliament, during the trip, the AP reports. “If they would like me to, I will do it,” Trump said. He said it is a complicated process for the hostages to be released from Gaza, but it will be happening Monday or Tuesday. Trump’s eighth Cabinet meeting lasted around an hour, much shorter than other recent meetings. More:

  • Autism. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reiterated the unproven link between Tylenol and autism at the meeting. He claimed children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, which is because they’re given Tylenol afterward. Kennedy also shared what the Independent calls a “bizarre story” about seeing a video of a woman “saying ‘F Trump’ and gobbling Tylenol.” Trump said vaccines could also play a role in autism, saying, “Obviously, there’s something, there’s something that’s artificially, I think, induced, something, whether it’s the vaccines, in terms of these massive vaccines,” per NBC News, which notes that the theory of a link has been debunked.
  • Chicago, Portland buildings for ICE. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said her department is buying buildings in Chicago and Portland for use in immigration enforcement operations, NBC reports. “We’re purchasing more buildings in Chicago to operate out of. We’re going to not back off,” she said. “In fact, we’re doubling down, and we’re going to be in more parts of Chicago in response to the people there.”
  • Shutdown cuts. Trump said only “Democrat programs” would be cut in response to the government shutdown, the Guardian reports. “We will be making cuts that are permanent and we’re only going to cut Democrat programs, I hate to tell you,” he said. “We’ll be cutting some very popular Democrat programs that aren’t popular with Republicans, frankly, that’s the way it works.”
  • A notable absence. One person who was not present at the president’s Cabinet meeting on Thursday was Mike Waltz, the newly confirmed US ambassador to the United Nations. That’s because the White House has decided that the job will not be a Cabinet-rank position, as it was during the Biden administration, the AP reports, citing two congressional officials familiar with the matter.

Let me ask here….if Chicago is such an awful place to live why was it voted the best big city in America by Conde-Nast the travel magazine?

Can you see why I call this a Sh*t Show or a Clown Show?

RFK, Jr is a joke onto itself…..but then all his cabinet members are jokes.

These bozos get sillier with every meeting….but what can you expect when the whole ‘show’ is staffed by incompetent pricks?

Where’s The Outrage?

After Charlie boy was killed there was a multitude of condemnation and finger pointing as to what caused the terrible act…..and as usual the response from the moronic Right was it all came down to antifa (do not capitalize because it is not a proper noun).

But yet when some semi-human asswad on the Right has some harsh words aimed at a lawmaker there is no condemnation forthcoming.

Just what am I going on about?

An Arizona Republican state representative who has expressed support for January 6 insurrectionists on Wednesday called for a Democratic congresswoman to be executed, as a response to a video clip.

The comment on X by state representative John Gillette of Kingman, Arizona, first reported by the Arizona Mirror, was a reaction to a short clip drawn from a YouTube video in March by US representative Pramila Jayapal, a longtime Democratic congresswoman representing Washington state, entitled “The Resistance Lab.” In the video, Jayapal discusses preparations for street protests against the Trump administration.

“Until people like this, that advocate for the overthrow of the American government are tried, convicted and hanged … it will continue,” he posted.

Nothing in either the clip or the longer video actually suggests Jayapal is advocating for the overthrow of the US government. The video carries explicit calls for non-violent protest and discussed with alarm a rise in political violence in the US.

Gillette’s comment is a continuation of a string of inflammatory far-right online invective by the Mohave county Republican and retired army reserve command sergeant major. Gillette has defended January 6 protesters, who were intent on violently overturning Trump’s defeat by Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election, as “political prisoners” and described Muslims as “terrorists”.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/sep/26/john-gillette-pramila-jayapal-execution-post

Why does this semi-literate piece of shite get a pass?

Then there is antifa has been a set up to make it the catch all for all the ‘hate’ speech that Repubes do not appreciate…..

Donald Trump wants to crack down on “a group that doesn’t actually exist,” said Edith Olmsted in The New Republic. The president signed an executive order this month designating antifa—short for anti-fascist—as a “domestic terrorist organization,” citing its supposed “armed standoffs with law enforcement” and “organized riots.” There are a couple of problems with this. The first is that antifa is not a cohesive organization but rather a loose, leaderless ideology that brings together various individuals and groups under the banner of opposing fascism. Then there’s the fact that U.S. law allows only foreign groups to be designated as terrorist organizations. The domestic terror designation might legally “be a flop,” but it still has its uses, said Matt Sledge in The Intercept. Anti-Trump protesters might stay home out of fear of being labeled terrorists. And the order also threatens the prosecution of those who finance antifa, hinting at how the administration might target progressive mega-donors such as George Soros, who Trump accused without evidence of funding violence following the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

(thewseek.com)

Did you get that you trolls….it is a loose, leaderless ideology…..so how do you go after something that has no HQ and no leader?

It is at best an excuse too find something that can be used to generate sympathy for the use of troops in our cities.

Here is a factoid for the idiots…..do you realize that those that participated in the Normandy invasion were anti-fascists ergo antifa.

Get that empty head around that.

If the GOP wants people to sympathize with their idiotic bullshit then maybe they should be constant and honest abut their intentions.

That would be refreshing for the GOP has not been honest with the American people since the election of 1956  (look it up)

So until they are outraged at all ‘hate’ speech then I will refrain from saying anything in support of their stupidity.

Clown Show At It’s Best

Yesterday was the biggest day for news…..shutdown looms but the big story was the meeting of top commanders with Hogsbreath and Donny.

Most of knew it would be a rally and not some major meetings of the minds…..and it did not disappoint.

Up first to address the military leaders was the idiot in charge of the War Department….

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth addressed a rare assembly of the top US generals and admirals on Tuesday, though his speech didn’t reveal any major surprises. Hegseth reiterated points he has previously made: He wants a less “woke” (a word that idiots use because it is easy to remember than one of those 50 cent words that educated people employ) fighting force and a warrior mentality. Highlights from his speech in Quantico, Virginia, via NBC, the AP, the New York Times, and the Washington Post:

  • Ethos: “The era of politically correct, overly sensitive don’t-hurt-anyone’s-feelings leadership ends right now at every level,” he said. Specifically, “no more climate change worship, no more division, distraction, or gender delusions.”
  • Watchdog: He said the Pentagon’s internal watchdog has been politicized and will be overhauled to discourage anonymous and “frivolous” complaints. It’s the “no more walking on eggshells” policy, he said of the inspector general’s office. “Of course, being a racist has been illegal in our formations since 1948. The same goes for sexual harassment. Both are wrong and illegal.”
  • Non-toxic: He also promised to push back harder against complaints of “toxic” leadership within the military. “We’re undertaking a full review of the department’s definitions of so-called toxic leadership, bullying and hazing, to empower leaders to enforce standards without fear of retribution or second-guessing.”
  • Fitness: “Frankly, it’s tiring to look out at combat formations, or really any formation, and see fat troops,” he said. “Likewise, it’s completely unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon. … Whether you’re an Airborne Ranger or a chairborne ranger, a brand new private or a four star general, you need to meet the height and weight standards.” He said all members of the military, at every rank, will now have to pass a fitness test twice a year.
  • Women: He said a new combat field test would require troops to meet the highest male standard, with no separate standard for women. “I don’t want my son serving alongside troops who are out of shape, or in combat units with females who can’t meet the same combat arms physical standards as men,” he said. “This job is life and death. Standards must be met.”
  • Facial hair: “No more beards, long hair, superficial individual expression,” Hegseth said. “We don’t have a military full of Nordic pagans.”

What a douche!

Next up was our Clueless Leader, who by the way served NO time in the military but fancies himself an expert….

As usual he rattled on and on…..

President Trump followed up defense chief Pete Hegseth’s speech to the nation’s top generals with one of his own, though he didn’t lay out any new military initiatives. The president spoke for about 70 minutes and hit a wide range of topics. Some highlights via CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and USA Today:

  • Training grounds: Trump said he suggested to Hegseth that “we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military,” referring to places where Trump has authorized National Guard troops. “We’re going into Chicago very soon,” he added.
  • Retaliation: Trump told the generals that if military vehicles were struck by bricks or other objects during protests, “you get out of that car, and you can do whatever the hell you want.”
  • Silence: Trump was struck by his silent reception at the start of his speech—the generals weren’t sending a message, just sticking to military protocol. “I’ve never walked into a room so silent before,” Trump said. “Don’t laugh, don’t laugh, you’re not allowed to do that,” he joked. “If you don’t like what I’m saying, you can leave the room. Of course, there goes your rank, there goes your future, but you just feel nice and loose, OK?”
  • Name change: Trump said he expected more pushback from Democrats over the decision to rename the Department of Defense the Department of War. He suggested he’d worn out his critics.
  • Submarines: At one point, Trump recalled how he deployed two nuclear submarines near Russia after comments by former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. “It was really a stupid person … mentioned the word nuclear,” he said. “I call it the n-word. There are 2 n-words, and you can’t use either of them.”

An inspirational speaker this moron is not….this was babbling….I am sure that the generals were duly impressed with the stupidity.

Both of these people are loose cannons and will do more harm and make us less safe…..the more they plot and plan the worse the situation will become.

The only way to describe the speeches is a ‘clown show’.

Did you watch any of the acts?

I know I am critical….but others were not impressed either….

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s attempt to rally America’s military brass at Quantico Tuesday seems to have fizzled, with many officials left questioning why hundreds of generals were summoned in person—just hours ahead of the government shutdown. “Could have been an email,” shrugged one of the multiple defense officials who spoke to Politico anonymously after enduring what many described as a partisan spectacle rather than a strategic briefing. Per the Hill, Hegseth referred to it as “liberation day” for “America’s warriors,” who, he said, “kill people and break things for a living.”

Some sources say the 90-minute event felt similar to a campaign rally, including a speech from President Trump, who encouraged attendees to “just have a good time.” As for Hegseth’s call for stricter fitness standards, some worried the move that could limit women in combat. Critics, both in and out of uniform, saw the meeting as a distraction that risked shifting the military’s focus away from foreign adversaries and toward policing American streets, with Trump floating the idea of new quick reaction forces for potential domestic unrest and Hegseth suggesting the rules of engagement, meant to protect civilians, are “stupid.”

Some officials joked about calculating the cost of the event using ChatGPT (one called the event a “total waste of money” that veered dangerously close to a “loyalty test”), while others simply tuned out: “At this point, I am averting my eyes,” said one source. Security experts raised eyebrows at the wisdom of assembling so many senior leaders in one place, suggesting the risks outweighed the benefits. “It’s an inexcusable strategic risk to concentrate so many leaders … to convey an inane message of little merit,” a former senior official said. It’s not clear how much the meeting cost, but many of the leaders had to fly in from across the globe, Reuters reports.

A colossal waste of time and energy…..but what do you expect from masters of wasting time and energy?

Side note:  Hogsbreath is determined to bring religion to the Pentagon….

The new Pentagon worship service was among the first indications that Hegseth planned to inject religion into his profile as secretary. The gathering has taken place in the middle of the workday and is billed as Hegseth’s personal project: A sign that appears to have been posted in the Pentagon earlier in September described the event as “SecWar’s Prayer Service,” inscribing the words over a painting of St. Stephen being stoned to death.

Under his leadership, the Department of Defense — which, like Hegseth, has rebranded as the Department of War, a secondary name — has also shared at least three faith-themed videos. Like the Lord’s Prayer clip, two of the videos featured a montage of images of the U.S. military. But instead of a voiceover, the clips slowly overlaid the footage with two Bible verses from the Bible’s 18th Psalm and the Book of Joshua. One of the videos was captioned: “We Are One Nation Under God.”

This asshole is a menace to this nation and its people…..

I need a drink.

And Donny Babbled On

Yesterday his High Majesty walked into the UN to give the yearly speech that all presidents have done for decades…..and he did not disappoint and threw more red meat for those mental midgets he calls MAGA.

There was problem with the teleprompter that delayed his speech…..thank god it was rectified or god knows what junk would have fallen from the mouth of the idiot.

Once the teleprompter glitch was out of the way, President Trump hit a wide range of subjects in an aggressive speech on Tuesday to the UN General Assembly. Highlights via the BBC, the AP, the Washington Post, and the New York Times:

  • Climate change: He called this the “greatest con job” in history, a statement a BBC reporter says was met with gasps. “If you don’t [move] away from the green energy scam, your country is going to fail,” Trump told his fellow world leaders. He said the idea of a carbon footprint is “a hoax made up by people … with evil intentions.”
  • Immigration: Trump told the world body to end the “failed experiment of open borders,” accusing the UN of facilitating an “invasion” of the US and other Western nations. He said Europe in particular is in “serious trouble” because of immigration.
  • Flexing: But even while depicting himself as a peacemaker, Trump boasted of ordering strikes on Iran and on alleged drug smugglers from Venezuela. “We will blow you out of existence,” Trump warned future smugglers.
  • Biden: Trump went after his predecessor a number of times, referring to the “Sleepy Joe Biden administration” as one of the most “corrupt” and “incompetent.” He again blamed the Russia-Ukraine war partly on Biden.
  • UN slam: “What is the purpose of the United Nations?” Trump asked. “I’ve always said (the UN) has such tremendous, tremendous potential, but it’s not even coming close to living up to that potential.” Trump said he has resolved multiple global conflicts in contrast to the UN. “Empty words don’t solve wars.”

Your typical red meat….on immigration, climate change, Biden, and taking a shot at the UN….all predictable.

Did he say anything positive?

You decide….
