I'm thinking (and maybe this is obvious)... Hegsworth using a dirty line for comms isn't because he's an alcoholic (that's a convenient excuse tho) or because he wants the Russians / Chinese to listen in, it's because he doesn't want any career DoD to have access to whatever the fuck bullshit the regime is pulling or is about to pull.
I definitely agree that tons of people are peeling away from President Dipshit. I just don’t believe there is a genuine bone in Candace Owens’ body.
I doubt that’s it, not like he’s able to do anything without some career civilian or military actually pushing buttons. It’s a pretty simple answer, his office is a SCIF, can’t use his phone in it, wants to text his PC Small Group buddies from his office, needs unsecured internet connection/unclassified computer and Signal installed on that computer.
to your point though, he very obviously could just email them (maybe even using a system at the appropriate classification level for the contents of the messages he is sending), but that would create a record.
Local news story on Hegseth is a doozy in the comments, lots of Hillary what a bouts of course, but my favorite was someone applauding him because cell service is notoriously bad in his office and he had this installed to make communication more efficient... Pretty fucking incredible the mental gymnastics these people do.
Damn autocorrect. My daughter’s senior prom is tonight, so the word has been prevalent in texts between my wife and I the last few weeks.

The toxicity, the alcoholism, being a doorknob ready to blast into a wall. All the hallmarks of central casting from war movies decades ago. Idk where it went wrong!

i like the republican arrogance to think China would never deep dick retaliate, and not give them an exit ramp, just because of their mutual love of corruption.
NEWS: After canceling thousands of foreign students' immigration records — threatening their ability to study and live in the US — the Trump administration has reversed course and restored them all. It follows intense pushback from courts across the country. Details TK— Kyle Cheney (@kyledcheney.bsky.social) 2025-04-25T15:22:03.381Z
I'm thankful democrats didn't politicize the justice department by prosecuting republicans for any crimes they committed. Would hate to think what would be happening now if they did.
