The Democrat/Regime Media Plot Against Pete Hegseth Is a Joke. Even if this story were true — which it pretty clearly isn’t — most Americans would approve of blowing up narco boats. https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2025/12/01/the-democratregime-media-plot-against-pete-hegseth-is-a-joke-n2667173

The man is facing a potential court-martial over this shoddy stunt, but Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) opted to continue digging his own grave on the Sunday morning talk shows yesterday. Democrats have nowhere to go, so they’ve manufactured this crisis where President Trump has issued illegal orders. To clarify a crucial point here: President Trump has not done that. When pressed, these Democrats fold, because they’re peddling a hoax. Several made some cockamamie videos urging American service members to commit sedition, essentially. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2025/12/01/how-this-dem-senator-dug-his-own-grave-during-this-sunday-morning-interview-n2667179

Just a friendly reminder that the US kill chain for engaging military targets includes find, fix, track, target, engage, and assess (or detect, track, identify, plan/assess, engage, assess for naval operations). Yes, all of those gates must be completed and verified sufficiently, and generally go in front of two to four commanders, before an engagement is cleared hot. So, next time you hear some journalist or whiny politician claiming unlawful orders this or that, just understand they are claiming (without evidence) that multiple officers within the kill chain are committing war crimes, not just the President or the SECWAR (even though they frame it to sow distrust in all levels of the military). This is why you cannot believe a word these people say, especially when their articles are full of “sources close to the operation” or “sources with knowledge of.”

No surprise.

Why would the Post lie ?

They're requiring 2 tiny fields on every federal payment: 1. A proper congressional authorization code 2. A comment field that actually says something That's it. And suddenly, hundreds of billions in pure fraud and waste just... stops. Before DOGE, massive payments were flying out the door with both fields completely blank, making real audits literally impossible. That's why the Pentagon has failed every single audit for decades: the data doesn't even exist. Elon: "Fraudsters don't confess. They scream that you're hurting children in Africa." Then DOGE asks for the wiring instructions. "Oh it's going to Deloitte & Touche in Washington DC... Okay, cool, can we just talk to the actual kids in Africa?" Crickets. The best part? When you block the scam, the grifters instantly spin up sob stories and accuse you of being heartless. This isn't complicated rocket science. It's basic financial hygiene that any normal company does on day one. Yet the federal government never did it... until Elon and DOGE showed up. The swamp is absolutely seething.

LOL. .

It sure is. The Left is out of ideas. Projecting is all they have.

Wow. A worse than usual post from Roundabout. Filled with false opinions. Meanwhile: The Democrats’ Latest Faux Scandal By John Hinderaker Here are my thoughts on the controversy: 1) The story is based on anonymous “sources,” i.e., deep state leakers. Unless and until someone steps forward, identifies himself, tells us what he knows and how he knows it, and takes responsibility for his statements, I assume everything in the story is probably a lie. 2) Given the lack of regard for the “law of armed conflict” that is consistently shown by our enemies, my reaction is: boo hoo. 3) Is there really a “law of armed conflict” that says you can only shoot at a target once? And if someone escapes an initial bombing, or burst of fire, or whatever, he is home free and can’t again be targeted? I’d like to see that law. I haven’t seen any news source cite to it. 4) If such a rule exists and applies in the present context, it is stupid. If it applies, and one were determined to follow it, it would incentivize a massive first strike that would eliminate any chance of survivors. And would also increase the risk of collateral, unintended damage. Meanwhile, it appears that the Trump administration may be intent on bringing about regime change in Venezuela. If armed conflict develops, the fate of the narco-traffickers will soon be forgotten. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2025/11/the-democrats-latest-faux-scandal.php

I hadn't thought about it, but maybe I will. One of my B-Daughters works for UB.
