GOP Senator votes for Hegseth, now thinks Hegseth is terrible at his job.
If only we had told him that before the senate approved hegseth.
Oh well, we'll all get there eventually.
GOP Senator Roger Wicker on Pete Hegseth’s NATO speech, where he stated that Ukraine won’t return to its pre-2014 borders and won’t gain NATO membership: “I don’t know who wrote the speech — it is the kind of thing Tucker Carlson could have written, and Carlson is a fool. Everybody knows … and people in the administration know you don't say before your first meeting what you will agree to and what you won't agree to,” Wicker told Politico adding that he was “puzzled” and “disturbed” by Hegseth’s comments.
I'm a long-time Democrat (i.e. I'm not a Republican) and I think that's the only possible path to peace. Ukraine surrenders land and won't join NATO.
Stuyvesant (and other test-into schools) are impressive. I'm going to be applying to MBA programs in the next year so I read certain finance forums a lot (too much, if I'm being honest) and they've talked about seeing a lot people being proud of their HS and it coming up a lot in interviews, mainly certain test-into ones (like Lowell in SF, Thomas Jefferson in Virginia, multiple NYC ones like Stuyvesant, Bronx Science, etc) or $70k a year boarding ones in New England
I never bring it up in real life but on the internet everyone is always calling you dumb so I tell them where I went to High School and ask them where they went. I never get an answer. 🤔
For all the amateurs on here trying to talk politics, you can start with this so you don't look like a fool attempting to respond and mock things you are ignorant about. Don't forget to look into soft power and covert ops. They manipulate politics with riots, music, war funding, terrorist forming and propaganda globally and nationally. Open your eyes, kids. Trump is populist, that's why they tried to take him out. A lot of corruption all for money, control and power.
This is a matter of perspective. Here are a few examples where Trump is doing exactly as you say to change to a NWO.
Manipulating riots: Stone, close adviser to Trump, was in meetings with the proud boys leading up to Jan 6. On Social Media, Trump said it was gonna be wild and people should come ready to take back their country. After this riot, he held weekly rallies where he repeatedly told lies about the election and his perceived enemies.
Funding war: Trump has pledged $7B including releasing bunker buster bombs to Israel to wipe out Gaza, wipe Palestinians out of Gaza, and develop it as a personal / family real estate project.
Terrorist forming: Trump released hundreds of people who assaulted police officers. This included the leaders who were convicted of seditious conspiracy.
Propaganda globally and nationally: X, FOX News, NewsMax, NY Post, Truth Social. All of these are owned by just a few billionaires who strongly support Trump and these platforms only speak of him in positive terms and treat any negative information as lies, even if they are easily verifiable facts.
Corruption for money and power: Elon Musk bought Twitter, and turned it into a right wing conspiracy theory megaphone, squashing all other perspectives (see propaganda above). He directly spent $250M to get Trump elected. Now he already has made this back x100. He has direct access to government and personal information on citizens without security clearance or even an official US Government job. He has a massive conflict of interest given his own companies' government contracts. Zuckerberg and Bezos bought their way into the inauguration and Trump's graces.
Corruption for money and power 2: The Trump Justice Dept. is already making quid pro quo deals with criminals for their own gain at the expense of the law. It has also begun unheard of persecution of Trump's perceived enemies.
Take him out: The shooter was a right winger neck deep in conspiracy theories, fed by the right wing propaganda listed above. The propaganda worked well to mobilize him, but he didn't seem to understand that Trump was supposed to be the messiah, not the enemy. Honest mistake when someone is fed anger and hate 24/7.

You don't get an answer because nobody cares where you went to high school.

It’s the same way everybody is a tough guy and talks sh!t on the Internet like you’re doing now but in real life most are very nice.

You think? Come up with that all by yourself, did you?
TBF 200 miles in Texas is "just up the road." We had regular-season track meets and football games 200 miles away. Traveling that far is pretty routine in much of the West.

Until today, I'd never heard of Stuyvesant High School. It meant absolutely nothing to me.
I looked it up, it still means nothing to me.
TBF Stuyvesant is a badash place. It's absurdly hard to get into, a full meritocracy, no way for government to put its thumb on the admissions scale for ethnic equality, tons of wildly ambitious immigrant families competing for spots...and then you have to start your academic career among the smartest kids in NYC.
something like 70% Asian now...it used to be probably 70% Jewish but that's how NYC rolls.
It's a major feeder school to all the Ivies of course.
It's one of the only high schools that means something if you went there.
And a miracle that its admissions policy has not been watered down to get more black and hispanic kids in. No real idea why it has survived. But it's a relic of the success of immigration. Mostly poor and middle class first generation Asian kids. Admissions is 100% test based. No soft edge stuff.
