    Anybody read the Vanity Fair piece?

    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

        I think I posted this a while ago. Not relevant to the current story, but amusing nevertheless.

        What seems like an eternity ago: https://www.today.com/news/biden-promises-appointees-he-will-fire-them-spot-if-they-t206392

        When swearing in his appointees on day one of his presidency, President Joe Biden had a stern and honest message to the almost 1,000 people that will be working with him over the next four years: respect others.

        "But I am not joking when I say this, if you are ever working with me and I hear you treat another colleague with disrespect... talk down to someone, I promise you I will fire you on the spot," the 46th president of the United States said on Wednesday. "On the spot. No ifs, ands or buts. Everybody... everybody is entitled to be treated with decency and dignity. That's been missing in a big way the last four years."

        "Fired on the spot."

        Heh. He misspelled "suspended for a week."

        "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          Watch what a politician does, not what he says...

            Good-bye, Ducklo.

                  1. He wasn't "fired," he "resigned." Yeah, it's a semantic difference, but it reads different on a resume, right?
                  2. See my post above. He only "resigned" because they got caught. They knew, and ignored it, for three weeks. So much for "on the spot."

                    On the spot? Looks like a fail to me.
