Fucked Government
Hegseth Survives Impeachment Attempt
Self-styled Secretary of War Pete Hegseth narrowly avoided impeachment Tuesday night, as solidarity from House Republicans blocked a bill introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., charging Hegseth with “high crimes and misdemeanors.”Though Democrats overwhelmingly joined Massie’s effort following their midterm election landslide, the House voted 211 to 204 to refer the charges to a committee, allowing Republicans to slow the process. With 11 Democrats absent, they lacked the numbers. Massie,

On the eve of a House impeachment vote, self-styled Secretary of War Pete Hegseth made a rare appearance before the Pentagon press corps. Over half an hour, he declared every military operation he has overseen “lawful” and claims of civilian harm “slander.” He said the Iran war was a great victory and only 18 Americans have died in the conflict. He also claimed that the effort to impeach him was a stunt by just “one disgruntled congressman.” None of it is true.Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., introduc

In the early hours of November 5, surveillance cameras captured a masked cyclist in a broad-brimmed black hat painting a swastika on the facade of the Magen David Yeshiva and Washington Cemetery in Brooklyn’s heavily Jewish Midwood neighborhood. After months of claims
