Hegseth is the worst

If you think Biden's DEI policies slowed legacy admissions in colleges, you got it completely back-asswards. It was the Supreme Court’s move to end affirmative action in 2023 that put legacy admissions under pressure. Two worst offenders: Baylor and Notre Dame.

Legacy Admissions Comes Under Fire Again—What You Need To Know

Legacy admission is continuing to face scrutiny. Despite widespread pushback, Ivy League colleges continue to insist on the importance of legacy in the admissions process

I'm glad that they are finally looking into this legacy admission bs. But I want to end this crap totally since they are getting rid of DEI.

Obama Appoints More Friends and Donors to Ambassadorships than Did Bush, Clinton and Even Reagan

For someone who campaigned on the ideal of not succumbing to the politics-as-usual ways of Washington, President Barack Obama has embraced patronage and cronyism with real zeal when it comes to appointing ambassadors. So far, President Obama h...

They were qualified and not a DEI hire right. Obama was above board on his appointees.

As always, this guy puts things into perspective.

The success of the mission isn't relevant........unless you're trying to deflect.

How much other classified info has been passed around among the trump cabinet by signal in the last 60 days? Neither you nor I know.........but there was ZERO conversation that would lead one to believe it was the first.

Never mind. Trying to convince a MAGA zombie of anything other than the admin talking points is useless.

You do know that Signal was approved to be used for White House staff by the Biden administration right?

If Goldgerg is supposed to be this ultra-liberal hack then why would anyone in the Chump administration have Goldberg's phone number, assumingly in their phone's contact. I have a theory, call it a conspiracy theory if you want. But whoever had Goldberg's number, perhaps Waltz or whoever added Goldberg to the text, had his number to leak specific inside information to Goldberg in other matters.

Wow this is actually an insightful take. I think you might actually be right for once. I think that there is an insider that is trying to make the administration look bad and this was one way how. Of course, without the insider inviting the Atlantic reporter, none of us would know anything about this. That Atlantic reporter, BTW, also happens to be the one that came up with the suckers and losers lie.

So you have no problem in the future if we give our adversaries a 2 1/2 hour head's up that we are about to attack them?

This is a big deal. Thank God the mission went well and the Russians chose not to tip the Houthis off. But the f-up was massive even though the consequences did not result in dead US soldiers.

And if you'd like, I can link all of the people and organizations that are in no way Democrat or "far-left news media" that think this was a very big f-up. From Fox News and National Review media, to Republican legislators, to the most experienced national security professionals.

No, actually my issue is that there's someone on the inside willing to give our adversaries a heads up in order to play politics and make the administration look bad. That's the real issue here.

I said it in an earlier thread that someone needs to get canned.

Nobody got canned for the Afghanistan debacle.

Yeah, but ambassadorships to political friends and supporters has been going on for a hundred years, both parties and thousands of examples.

We can definitely agree that it made them look bad.

Really bad.

It's definitely not the real issue. The real issue is the pathetic lack of OpSec. When you deal with classified material you are required to verify the attendees and their need to know. A 1 minute check, and this never happens.

For classified information?
