She is a pitbull. Press conferences are going to be fun.

Pete Hegseth for SecDef.

Was NOT expecting that.

He'll probably be the first SecDef with ink.

My impression of her is she’s kind of an idiot. So yeah…

Now that Kamala’s out, I can feel my loyalties switching to the loyal opposition in many respects…

Department of Veteran Affairs? Great pick. SecDef? FFS…

[LuFins Dad]

But still better than the other side…

Might have been a WW-II vet that had a US Marines or Iwo Jima tattoo or the like.

IHT but who is she?

Alina Habba - one of his attorneys.

Isn’t she the one that brought a gamer laptop to his trial or something? If so, she needs a good spanking.

And I know just the person to provide it.

DOGE

[jon-nyc]

Is he imagining that Congress will create a new department? Or did he just want to goose Dogecoin? (which doubled this week)

[jon-nyc]

Seems weird to create a department for 2 guys that are going to oversee a single 600p report.

[LuFins Dad]

Okay, just bought a few bucks worth of DOGECOIN for the hell of it

Uh, that's the NYC SEAL Swim across the Hudson River. Those "collars" are swim goggles.

If I was you, I'd go down there next year and make fun of those guys in person.

Nice knowing you...

@Jolly c'mon, @jon-nyc was trying to be funny.

Princeton, Harvard, 2 bronze stars. Current rank is Major.

I agree, better at VA.

The goal, as I understand it?

Trim $2T.

All they're empowered to do is write a report. Then Congress still has to act.

That's why I've called them the Grace Commission.
