as the president of Concerned Veterans for America, from 2013 until 2016, describes him as being repeatedly intoxicated while acting in his official capacity—to the point of needing to be carried out of the organization’s events. The detailed seven-page report—which was compiled by multiple former C.V.A. employees and sent to the organization’s senior management in February, 2015—states that, at one point, Hegseth had to be restrained while drunk from joining the dancers on the stage of a Louisiana strip club, where he had brought his team.

Oh those concerned veterans! Such concern.

In other news, science has indications the sun may be hot as a muthafucka.

Chinese Ship’s Crew Piloted By A Russian Cut International Cables

I don’t think liberalism “assumes” “self-actualization” but it’s a good point anyway. I think we do expect people to not be racist, sexist, and arrogantly stupid, but if that’s “self-actualization” then, yeah.

Seems pretty un-American and it’s worked out really well for them.

Fucking would someone please explain media literacy to the fucking idiot shitheads of the world who have no fucking clue before russia plunges every single fucking country into the shit?
