Hang in there Jodie. But I know what you mean. I have to be so circumspect when I write politically oriented replies to many people in my email list: factual, concerned, "might you consider" vis "get your act together !!" and "wtf???" I don't often let loose but sometimes enjoy reading other rants just to reassure myself that there are a pile of people across America who are as fed up as I am with what the MAGA folks are perpetrating on the rest of us with whom they are SO out of touch.

They are not mutually exclusive, lol. Probably both. He might be occasionally intoxicated, but is always incompetent. 😂

Hegseth is an alcoholic. Alchies are not "occasional" drinkers.

What man would admit to this? Trump was found guilty of rape, they just couldn't call it rape because of statues of limitations, but was found guilty of defamation of the woman he raped. AND was found guilty of 34-felony charges related to the hush money he paid for the coverup of of an affair!!!

Now we all know that if sensitive information is being TEXTED, how much sensitive information are they using on their personal email threads, and leaving out of the secured Government email so they can hide the records!!!!!
