Hegseth knows what we all know - the Trump administration is a shit show. If you let real journalists near the Pentagon they'll eventually figure that out too.

One of his first acts was to install a makeup station for when he has to talk to the press. Can you imagine!?! His first thought is having his foundation well blended, or whatever it is people do in makeup.
It’s no wonder they are having recruitment problems.
Patton liked looking sharp with his ivory handled revolvers, but he didn’t dwell on them. He thought about strategy. Hegseth doesn’t seem capable of thinking strategically.

Baby throwing a tantrum

This is another moment of death of the free press. Diminishing this to a baby throwing a tantrum does nothing but make people feel like it’s just a procedural misstep by an incompetent government. Not yet another strategic move by the fascist state to consolidate power. You are also the problem. You don’t have power. Get f****** mad.

>“At such a critical time, we ask why the Pentagon is choosing to restrict vital press freedoms that help inform all Americans,” the association said.
He has to punish them somehow and he's already used up his missile quota for March.

Someone could probably make a WWII film about Nazis quoting exclusively Republican politician and operatives own words in the last year. Some of the group chats with people saying "I love Hitler." Total insanity.

The AP headline is about escalation after the ruling. The Fox headline is about the ruling as a legal defeat for the Pentagon and a win for the Times. We're being dropped into different moments of the same case.

The spoiled brat energy by people spending tax payer money like drunken sailors is really frustrating. I wish that every time we have a Republican President, my retirement plan keeps getting worse. First - Retire at 67, then Move in with my kids. Then when I couldn't afford to have kids, just invest and have property, now that our insrance system is so bad - my reitrement plan is goind bankrupt and checking out. I have a choice of going bankrupt due to illness with insurance, or without insurance. Bright future for most Americans.
