Please stop referring to Hegseth as the Secretary of War. There is no Dept. of War, that was in the days of segregation. Also, every time journalists defer to Lunatic Pete's renaming, you are legitimizing and energizing his cosplay. He is the Secretary of Defense and the worst one in American history.

Hegseth looking scrappy. What a pos. Guilty as hell. Culpable como el infierno.

Joe, please stop calling it the Department of War. Congress changes the name of it, not the fascists in our government.

Glad to see someone noted this before I commented. I’ve heard Joe state that twice, so far. Stop it!

Punishment doubtful but the bombing of the boats and the murder of survivors are by far the biggest mistake. Hopefully there will be bipartisan hearings and even if Hegseth is fired, tried, Trump will pardon him

Is anyone talking about the Trump National Security Strategy that basically talks about taking over the countries of South America???

Ya it’s causing them to get restless and bring out the guillotine for Johnson. Let’s see if they use it on him.

I personally have urged my MAGA rep to tack toward the center now before it’s too late for him. Of course he isn’t changing.

Overall the Behn thing was good news I guess.

Time For D’s To Go Mad Max On GOP/Nazis

The House Rules committee just voted to NOT condemn fascism In a New Republic piece, “A fascist is one whose lust for money or power is combined with such an intensity of intolerance toward those of other races, parties, classes, religions, cultures, regions or nations as to make him ruthless in his use of deceit or violence to attain his ends,” wrote Vice President Henry A. Wallace for The New York Times in 1944

Pretty well sums it up for the Nazi/GOP Perry Bacon in his podcast(https://bit.ly/4nZ1Izx) talks about it’s time for D’s to take their gloves off and begin an anti-corruption campaign to salvage the country from the Nazi/GOP who has shown that it’s ok for immoral conduct, disgusting political retribution, reprehensible immigrant policy, political monetary opportunism, attempted government oligarchic takeover, rigging elections and persistent gerrymandering, attempting to buy elected offices, abuse of executive power, abuse of SCOTUS power The American public has seen and had enough

36 House Nazis are not seeking re-election in 2026 They’re seeing the writing on the wall The jig is up….the MAGA façade has been ripped away and there is no turning back But a unanimous House vote for the Epstein file release cannot wipe away decades of power grabbing politics with nothing in return to the American people Vote the Nazis out until they have a moral compass if that's at all possible because I think this Nazi group is beyond hope

And do it with tenacity and a "no holds barred" approach No reaching across the aisle SCOTUS enlargement to 13 Meaningful election reform to eliminate gerrymandering and other red state anti voting legislation Repeal of past tax legislation and 50% tax on billionaires in order to pay down national deficit Restitution of a Constitutional mandated bimetallic standard(gold/silver standard) Voiding all Cheeto executive orders Restitution of Biden legislation Impeachment of Cheeto and his cabinet including Just Dance Vance Begin grifter tax on misinformation sources Change the pardon power

Glad you are back Alex. What a Smile. Love it. Congrats to you and your wife. It is not a show without you although the subs were good, but well, not you. Liked the questions of Biggest Wins, Worse Mistakes--and the Thing that should not have been a Thing. Mandani for sure--now I am trying to think of others that fit that category. Fun, but food for thought also. Thanks Joe and Alex. Take care.

I'll believe it when it happens. Not being negative, but we've all heard about 'waves' before and they seldom occur. Besides, my feeling is that if it looks really that bad, Trump will pull his coup and stop the election. What will the SCOTUS say? "oh my, oh my"
