So if I were a foreign asset and in charge of the executive branch, I would ensure that every cabinet position and agency was headed by an incompetent, obnoxious, embarrassing criminal, so it simultaneously: discredits the institution, accelerates dissolution of public faith in government, actively damages the agency and its mission, and weakens the United States by a death of 1000 cuts.

But that's just if I were a foreign (why not Russian) asset actively working against the best interests of the United States.

what dignity? it's fucking Pete Hegseth. The man is literally every Disney highschool bully stereotype wrapped in the body of an insecure manosphere grifter.

There is no better representation of an incredibly weak man trying to bully others into thinking he's strong. That's his whole schtick. So I ask again, what fucking dignity?

Well he is a well known drunk, wife beater, and...

What were we talking about?

The Pentagon has said the post by Hegseth "speaks for itself".

Yes, yes it does. But not in the way they are framing it. In reality, this is a massive embarrassment to the Pentagon, and to America.

Kegsbreath only pledges his allegiance to pedophiles and getting black out drunk on the FBIs time

[–] radix@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

You're thinking of Kash Patel. This other guy pledges his allegiance to pedophiles and gets black out drunk on DOD time.

Edit: Neither should be confused with the guy who pledges his allegiance to pedophiles and gets black out drunk on SCOTUS time.

Trump really has a type.

[–] scottmeme@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

I mean they both probably get black out drunk on government time with armed guards around them

Good luck finding any dignity in any American offices these days

For context: the cadet program isn't run by the main forces that see any live combat. Contrarily, it's run by a sub branch of the reserves - the Cadet Instructor Cadre (CIC). CIC members are considered part of the military, but they aren't trained for any form of combat; their focus is an after-school youth program for high schoolers

EDIT: additional note - The Air Cadet program / Royal Canadian Air Cadets is equivalent to the US's Civil Air Patrol
