It\u2019s only about revenge, and the nation or people be damned.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s this behavior that has consistently enraged me and led me to hate every single Democrat in Congress and anywhere else in Government. They have nothing to say that I\u2019m the least bit interested in.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a problem. They\u2019ve so turned me off that I refuse to listen to them. Everything they say is an assault to common sense and affront to my intellect. Moreover, I wouldn\u2019t trust any of them to tell me the correct time.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a problem all of us who\u2019ve tuned these rancid douche bags out aren\u2019t watching their slimy duplicitous behavior. Without supervision and consequences they will become more corrupt and believe and act as if they are well above the law.<\/p>\n<p>I find myself in favor of arresting every democrat in congress and charging them with treason. Oh don\u2019t worry, that\u2019s just to start. The Republicans are not innocent either.

I may also be an outlier.<\/p>\n<p>Except that I\u2019ve noticed and encountered a surprising number of people expressing similar outrage at our Government in general, and the Democrats in particular.<\/p>\n<p>After the way some of these Congresspeople have come at Hegseth, he\u2019s earned more of my respect. I\u2019d have leapt over the table and been beating the ever loving shit out of these evil fucks.<\/p>\n<p>I hope he\u2019s confirmed and after the confirmation I\u2019d love for him to tell Hirano, \u201cYes, in fact I do support abortion, the retroactive abortion of my country\u2019s enemies!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sen Mullin took all the hypocrites on the other side of the aisle to task in one of the most beautiful things I\u2019ve heard lately.<\/p>\n<p>\n<script>!function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/embedJS\/u4\"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+\"\/?url=\"+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+\"&args=\"+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, \"script\", \"Rumble\");<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<script>!function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/embedJS\/u4\"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+\"\/?url=\"+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+\"&args=\"+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, \"script\", \"Rumble\");<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<script>\nRumble(\"play\", {\"video\":\"v675387\",\"div\":\"rumble_v675387\"});<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"rumble\" src=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/embed\/v675387\/?pub=4\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Senator Mullin took the scumbag Democrats off at the knees, and it was epic.<\/p>\n<p>There was one senator that asked in a sarcastic way (castigating the Democrats,) about the supposedly racist tattoo Hegseth has on his chest. It was clear the Senator wanted to rub the Democrats noses in their own shit. Hegseth has a Jerusalem cross, a symbol of Christian faith, that also is on the floor of the National Cathedral, and appeared on Jimmy Carter\u2019s funeral program.<\/p>\n<p>The News media and the Democrats tried to spin this as some kind of white supremacist shit. These people have already managed to make virtually every single Norse symbol associated with racists and white supremacists.

He was disqualified because someone thought the tattoo was racist, and instead of anyone actually looking it up, the military sent him home.<\/p>\n<p>I hope Hegseth is approved and look forward to him cleaning house and making our military strong again.<\/p>\n<p>Our military should make our enemies shit themselves, not be the source of bad trans jokes.<\/p>\n<p>Then again, I\u2019m Old School.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hegseth did well.\u00a0 The Democrats demonstrated exactly why the American People have soured on them.
