We'll also see how long the peace actually lasts...

Seems pretty weak for an incoming POTUS

For what its worth, "Markwayne"'s colleague in the Senate, Mark Kelly, more or less called his comments about behaviors in the Senate bull**** today I'm gonna go ahead and believe the astronaut over "Markwayne"

Sean O'Brien of the Teamsters (who then turned around and kissed Trump's shoe)

Yeah, Facebook may be dying, but his overall portfolio is still pretty strong; they are currently building data centers left and right.

That's more or less what all of the techbros believe in, to be fair to Zuck. Just empty soulless husks of human beings; all the money in the world can't make them interesting or beloved by the masses

Wow, Pfife edited a post. Sick Burn! Lmfao

1) Doug Emhoff was neither running for office or trying to be confirmed to lead one of the largest federal bureaucracies 2) If he was, Holic's guy Markwayne would undoubtedly find his morals again and be singing from a different song book. So spare me the 'hypocrisy' horse****

By definition, alcohol is a drug. So I'm not the confused one here, Bub

To an extent maybe. But even relative to other things that involve Washington (including January 6th, which I've been reliably told doesn't matter anymore), it's pretty clear that their efforts to make fetch happen on HB didn't take.

Peter Hamby made some comments on The Bulwark pod yesterday that stuck out to me about Zuck when he said that the guy essentially has no clear message or core values. He doesn't believe anything and he just flaps in the wind. It also probably explains why his political instincts are **** and why he's always the last guy to jump on a bandwagon before the wheels fall off. Either way, it's always been the case regardless of whatever political positions he's staked out. He's the absolute worst of us as a country and it's kinda weird to see a supporter of Donald "Man of the People" Trump signal boosting this guy.

Same probably goes for most of the American public, if we're being honest.

1) I don't think most hard core Trump supporters care all that much about the issues deep down. It's mostly about entertainment value at this point (as tedious and boring as the show is) 2) A feature of Term 1 that will not doubt roll over into Term 2 is the concept of normal, non-fanatical people being fed chicken**** mixed with shards of glass in it and being told it's chicken salad. Happened all the time the first time around and, lo and behold, it happened today with Pete Hegseth

Alcohol is a drug, isn't it?

As said previously, simpin' ain't easy

Alcohol is a drug, isn't it?

The reports from his Fox News colleagues are out there... Along with his own comments on his drinking, which alludes to this being a real issue for him (via NYT): In an interview on Megyn Kelly’s SiriusXM show last month, Mr. Hegseth acknowledged concerns about his drinking had put his nomination at risk. He promised then that there “won’t be a drop of alcohol on my lips” if he is confirmed. I don't have any reason to doubt any of it. Although the ultimate disqualification is his lack of experience and resume to run the Pentagon. Given that he apparently hasn't run a damn thing in his life. The questions of his demons, not mention the martial infidelity and sexual assault allegations, are just extra kindling on the fire

Simpin' ain't easy

Pete Hegseth, who is neither qualified for the job and who has a documented history of drug and alcohol abuse, should be confirmed because of things that may happen at GM and Ford plants? Just really really unconvincing stuff....

On the personal lives front, it's particularly wild to see Markwayne explaining away Pete's marital infidelity given how much I heard about "moral relativism" from my conservative family members growing up. Ephesians 5:25 is for the birds apparently lol

I wouldn't say I'm pissed about anything really. I just think Markwayne's argument is really idiotic and, frankly, should be a little insulting to those of us in our professional and personal lives who do the right things.

Who gives a ****... Pete Hegseth should be judged on Pete Hegseth's record. And his record reflects that he would have trouble keeping a job at the local Applebees, let alone the Pentagon.

Really awesome to hold a job that involves being subjected to randomized drug testing with fines and penalties attached, periodic criminal background checks, etc., yet the soon-to-be leader of the Pentagon is gonna get confirmed not only while not being qualified on the merits, but also with a history of drug and alcohol abuse, adultery and possible sexual assault. Just not a serious government. But clearly Tigeraholic's entertainment is our number one priority lol

One clip I saw was of Kevin Cramer (from ND) basically defending Hegseth by saying, essentially, "who amongst us hasn't shown up for work drunk before".... Just not serious people.
