    I am reminded of the Marge Simpson picture:

    I dunno. Maybe putting an alcoholic Fox News host in charge of the largest army in the world was a bad idea.

    This guy creeps me out. He loves war, bombs and fighting, but only behind his army. Weak and pathetic. Hope he gets unalived by the own war he started

    It’s apparent to me that he thinks that everything he’s saying is so badass. He’s the coolest person he knows.

    He looks so desperate and the words he’s saying come off more as a plea than confidence.

      Oh yeah that’s a boy who thinks that if he’s tough enough and mean enough everyone will go his way as he’s starting to worry it isn’t working.

      I’d pity him if he didn’t prove over and over he doesn’t even deserve pity. He knows this is getting pinned on him and while I wish his boss fell for it too, I still hope this manchild faces painful consequences

    Great… Now the bombs themselves are running LLMs‽

    Oh, right! That’s how you get them to teleport into Waffle Houses.

    Why are they the DOD again? Wasn’t there a name change?

      They are officially still the DOD. The name change has never been officially approved despite Hegseth choosing to identify with a different pronoun.

        Department of War when they can blow up innocent civilian fishing boats that can’t fight back. Department of Defense when they get fucked up from someone who can, and does, fight back.

      They snuck in DoW as a secondary name which didn’t need approval. The official name on contracts is still DoD or I guess if the person wanted they could replace Defense with War but it’s all just a waste of time.

      They can’t keep things straight. Got an ad recently for military service that was “Paid for by the Department of War.” Plus, it makes the war sound better if it’s fought for “defense.” Whatever aims to make them sound better at any given time.

        Damn I wish someone would choose Hegseth and Trump! They can choose Mike Johnson and a couple Supreme Court justices too while they’re at it…
