Department of War is more accurate to what the department does, but may not be legally correct. Department of Defense is legally correct, but inaccurate to what the department does.
I don't think it's a benefit to him to be called 'Secretary of War'. Honestly it feels like resistance lib shit to think that we're doing something by calling him 'Secretary of Defense'.
I don't think it matters what we call him. Call him whatever you want, call him 'Secretary of Piss' if you choose.
Pete Hegseth was a host on Fox News from 2017 to 2024, before Trump appointed him as Secretary of War.

He's trying to do a 'strong arm' tactic as usual. This is how most of his 'deals' go. He fucks shit up, claims the other party agreed to his terms, and then tries to pull out.
Iran has said many times that they are not letting Trump pull out. Last year, the truce which ended the '12 day war' was the final warning. Trump does not decide the end of the war. He can't pull out because Israel is going to keep escalating and Iran will pummel Israel without US support. The reason that the US intervened into the '12 day war' was because Israel was losing badly.
Pete Hegseth has crusade tattoos to symbolize that he's a christian fascist who is religiously motivated to kill Muslims. He thinks that the tattoos represent a war against Muslims and he wants to kill Muslims.
I don't a see a distinction between American Christian Fascists and German Fascists.
Fox News getting mad about Nazi tattoos is fake outrage. Pete Hegseth has as many Nazi tattoos as Graham Platner, if not more. I would be surprised if Kegsbreath was not mandating everyone in the US military to get Nazi tattoos.
I don't trust Platner. I read through many of his deleted reddit comments and he explained on his reddit account that he knew what Nazi tattoos are and defended other people in the military having them as well.
However, the idea that Fox News is outflanking anyone on being against Nazi tattoos is absurd. You might say the headline is 'bad faith'. They're only pretending to be against Nazi tattoos. If they actually hated Nazis tattoos, they would have criticized Pete Hegseth for it.
How did a comedy podcast lead to the creation of a website full of people with absolutely zero sense of humor? "Epstein class" is a joke. No person is doing actual class analysis around "Epstein Class".
"with over use, will lose effect. Just as for the catholic church, or boy scouts. Sort of a joke." << Jokes about catholic church and boys scouts pedophilia is not what lessened "the effect" of the label 'pedophilia'. The fact that they don't get prosecuted is what lessens the effect.
The fact that none the fuckers in the Epstein files are being prosecuted is what lessens "the effect" of the Epstein label. THAT IS THE JOKE.
What is a joke? A joke is a contradiction between expectation and outcome. A punchline is an outcome that is unexpected. For example, if you read the punchline before you read the joke, then it become not funny because you already know the outcome.
Expected outcome: Pedophiles should get prosecuted for committing crimes
Real outcome: Pedophiles who were friends with Epstein did not get prosecuted
Contradiction: the existence of a group of pedophiles who are immune to being prosecuted or that the pedophiles control the legal system
The joke is not the pedophilia. Child abuse is awful. The joke is that the most evil people that you could imagine are immune to consequences. The joke points out that pedophilia is wrong and that Epstein affiliates are not being punished. The joke is supposed to make people think "Why aren't Epstein's friends being prosecuted?"
People don't say "Reagan class" because that isn't a joke. Reagan was the expected level of evil. Epstein is cartoonish levels of evil.
A similar joke is like when people point out that Peter Thiel has a blood boy or that Kristi Noem shot her dog.
In the context of this quote, he's talking to a right winger and being facetious. The right winger tells Linus that NYTimes is 'woke communist propaganda' and Linus declares himself to be a 'woke communist' for liking to read NYTimes. If liking New York Times, makes you a communist, then yeah he's a communist. There is no indication that he actually supports communism.
Yeah it says the accused artist by investigation is 52.

Iran Military Command mocks Trump in English, says that Trump is conducting operation 'Epic Fear', not 'Epic Fury'
(hexbear.net)
A message to the President of the United States: The outcome of war cannot be determined by tweets. The results of war are determined in the field — the very place where you and your forces do not dare to approach. It’s better to name this operation ‘Epic Fear’ instead of ‘Epic Fury.

Kim Jong Un says that long-range artillery drill will make enemies within 420 km feel uneasiness [more photos in comments]

KPA Long-range Artillery Sub-unit in Western Area Conducts Firepower Strike Drill
Pyongyang, March 15 (KCNA) -- A long-range artillery sub-unit of the Korean People's Army in the western area conducted a firepower strike drill on March 14.
The drill involved twelve 600mm-calibre ultra-precision multiple rocket launchers and two artillery companies.
Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, observed the firepower strike drill on the spot.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un stated briefly that the drill was aimed at making the army do what it should do.
He said that the drill would expose the forces hostile to the DPRK, the enemies within the 420-km striking range, to uneasiness, making a signaling wave stronger than the aimed, and give them a deep understanding of the destructive power of tactical nuclear weapon.
He affirmed that the drill is a regular one for checking the DPRK's defensive posture and war deterrence and such drill will be frequently conducted in the future, too.
He authorized Full General Jang Chang Ha, general director of the Missile Administration accompanying him, to command the drill, and came out to the launching position to give an instruction on the firing method.
At the central command post, Jang Chang Ha gave an order to open fire.
Making the deafening sound rending the air, multiple rocket companies opened fire in waves.
The launched rockets battered the island target in the East Sea of Korea about 364.4 km away with the accuracy of 100 percent, proving once again the destructive capability of their concentration strike and the system's military value once again.
After overseeing the firing drill, he spoke highly of the soldiers of the artillery sub-unit for being prepared for deftly handling the state-of-the-art multiple rocket launcher system. Then he once again praised the combat performance of the 600mm-calibre ultra-precision multiple rocket launchers, saying:
"It is indeed a very deadly yet attractive weapon.
Worldwide, there exists no tactical weapon that surpasses the performance of this weapon system.
This will be so in the coming few years.
Certainly, however, we will never mark time till that time, being content with this.
I always hold our defence scientists in respect and appreciate them for developing such a weapon system.
As I have already stated, our powerful attacking capability is, in effect, for defending ourselves.
It is because the most powerful attacking capability precisely means a reliable defence capability.
It is, in the true sense of the word, a means of deterring war.
But in case such deterrents of a defensive nature do not prevent foreign forces from launching an armed >provocation or invading our state to jeopardize the security of its sovereignty, they will immediately be used for their second mission, i.e., as a means of massive, destructive strike.
As I have said several times, if this weapon is used, the opponent's military infrastructure within its striking range can never survive.
Our Party and the government of the Republic will maintain durable peace by means of powerful military capabilities.
Peace is something that should be defended rather than desired."
Kim Jong Un stressed the need for all units of the army at different levels to organize and wage high-intensity practical maneuvers under the simulated conditions of an actual war, true to the Party's policy of bringing about a radical turn in training, and maintain their full response posture to thoroughly frustrate any provocation by the enemies with overwhelmingly strong power. -0-
