Most sites that we would watch also have accounts with bluesky so why would I give one click to twitter or X

I've noticed that Kegsbreath is keeping his pie hole shut about Sen. Kelly, maybe because he knows just how bad he and Flim Flam Man have so fucked this up and how badly its backfiring on them.

Which does OVERSIGHT of the DOD! It was a totally amateurish and stupid move for Pete to cross Kelly. Threaten to call him back to active duty? Good fucking luck. He'd eat your lunch.

Dam...I need a drink.

A decorated naval aviator, combat veteran, test pilot, astronaut of significant renown and a US Senator. Galactically stupid.

The idea that anyone questions this man's service or patriotism makes me sick. But it's nothing new, remember the purple bandaids at their convention when Kerry was running?

His one official contact from DOJ was an FBI letter with no point of contact listed.

DOJ apparently wants to use Twitter/X for formal notification.
