Insider trading is illegal. Arrest hegseth

Lynn Matsuoka's avatar

DO IT NOW!!! For that and a list of other things you know he’s guilty of.

Irene Finn's avatar

He made a bad decision and can't live with the consequences. He's already spit in the eyes of all of our Allies, so you reap what you sow. War is not to be taken lightly, which is what he did. Now he has no plan and no exit strategy. Who's going to figure this out, Hegseth? That's a joke.

Hegeseth, you go put your own boots on the ground.

Suel J's avatar

And leave the freaking Bible study at home Hegseth. Where it belongs. Actually, leave yourself at home too. You are just an embarrassment at this point.

And hey, I'd like to be a fly on the wall when and if trump wakes from his semi coma and his reptile brain realizes that the shiny people have been lying to him.

Absolutely right, Jan!

Edward mead's avatar

And take Barron and Eric with you

Lynn Matsuoka's avatar

Right, before Hegseth, Barron and the orange menace himself strap their money to their bayonettes and stand in the front lines, nobody should be going there!

Jemtl65's avatar

And Hegseth is concerned about information of the war!!! He spreads the top secret info!!!

Trump's strategies are right in line with his mob boss mentality.

It is painful to watch the 'unraveling' of decades of American diplomacy in real time. As someone who stood by the U.S. mission and trusted the weight of the American Word, seeing allies like France and the UK being publicly insulted is a dark mirror of what we, the loyal partners, have already experienced. When a government replaces a coherent strategy with 'meltdowns' and 'juvenile anecdotes, it doesn't just lose its allies it loses its moral standing in the world. Real leadership is about keeping promises and respecting those who bleed for the cause, not treating global security like a reality show. A very sobering update

Trump says we will remember what these countries did. Yes, I will remember that they did not enable his war, and I thank them for not doing so.

Megan Ross's avatar

It is heartbreaking in so many ways. It will take decades to fix the mess that TRump has created, both at home and abroad. 😞

Anna Bifano's avatar

Perfectly stated. It’s hard to believe this tyrant is still in charge. I hope these countries know most of us don’t stand behind him.

5 year old bully Donnie: "Dad, the other countries won't play with me! Waah!

As for old Petey, maybe graduate courses in "Military," instead of Military 101? And now, all of your misstatements are tactical? To *fool* the "enemy"? A whole lot of bullsh*t . . .

"A heart the size of Texas"? . . . "More bombs, Sir?" Jeez . . . I have a bridge, sonny.

Why Can't Congress have the United States Marshall service arrest Trump. and Trump's caninet

Is trump using this as a ply to pull out of NATO?

Marliss Desens's avatar

I don't think he can pull the U.S. out of NATO without Congressional consent, and I hink this would be a bridge too far, even for this Republican controlled House and Senate.

Angel Lee's avatar

He doesn't care about Congressional consent. I think he's more that proves that.

Marliss Desens's avatar

He would care if the Republicans had spines.

BellaB63's avatar

Regardless, in this instance he cannot pull us out.

Kathleen Dintaman's avatar

What day of the week is this?

Marliss Desens's avatar

Jim Acosta would say, "It's another day that ends in y.""

Nancy Richardson's avatar

Thanks Ben. Great

Update. Succinct and to the point!

Netanyahu is becoming the butcher of Gaza.

Megan Ross's avatar

Becoming?! NuttyYahoo has been the butcher of Gaza for years. He needs to be eXterminated.

Linda Harris's avatar

trump is no better. They both share that title.

When was the last time you heard about a sovereign nation that was attacked - did nothing? When was the last time you heard about a sovereign nation that was attacked - that warned the "civilians" of where and when they would attack?

When was the last time a nation used its people as human shields and world ignored that fact due to their inbred, inherited hatred for one particular nation?

Hegseth is a war criminal

ruth maddux's avatar

Just impeach this bastard

ruth maddux's avatar

shouldn't have started a war dumbass

GingerLee's avatar

Irony here.. you know he cannot spell nor can he speak if the words are longer than 3 syllables... so who is the pawn writing this for him

Linda (Evanston IL)'s avatar

Stephen Miller is the ghostwriter probably.

Janelle Weaver's avatar

his track record shows that he's filed bankruptcy seven times and now he's bankrupt America and put us in the war that none of us want so he could fatten his own bank account. Trump made $17 billion dollars on crypto alone. worst president ever!

The Peaceful Solution-Plan B's avatar

Please ignore Indivisible’s timid proposal, and instead, engage in a General Spending Strike.

The following is from an email by Indivisible:

“Gearing up for a national day of economic disruption on May Day. We always say mass mobilizations are just one tactic. Economic disruption is another tactic. And it’s most successful when you’ve done the work to build a large, broad-based coalition of folks ready for higher-level actions. So now, the ground is laid for May Day Strong’s national day of “No school, no work, no shopping” to put the oligarchs enabling Trump’s power grabs on notice.”

From Peaceful Solution:

This proposal is 14 months late and far too timid. They should have been proposing economic disruption simultaneously with the street protests. Remember, Indivisible is an offshoot of the Democratic Party, so the timidity should not be surprising. Their proposed one day economic disruption will have absolutely no effect, except to disappoint those participating and give a good laugh to the fascists and billionaires.

We are in the middle of a five alarm fire, and while most of the country remains oblivious, too many in the resistance are wasting time discussing how to organize and implement a fire department. What’s needed from the general public is total non cooperation and a General Spending Strike( Spending Strike, economic disengagement, economic disruption, general boycott, whichever you prefer). NOW!

We, the People, can’t easily or safely withhold our tax dollars that are allowing this corrupt government to function. Our tax dollars fund the fascist takeover.

But as consumers we can indirectly withhold our tax dollars. Consumer spending is about 70% of the economy. That spending ends up as tax dollars.

How much do you want to stop His Royal Heinous and the fascist takeover of the country?

Enough that you’re willing to make a small sacrifice? Like altering your spending habits for a month or two or three? That could be all it would take to get the attention of the oligarchs (formerly known as The Robber Barons in the first Gilded Age, also The Fat Cats, The Greedy Bastards).

A brief demonstration of We, the People’s, power of the purse could persuade them to quit supporting HRH and the politicians who enable him.

This small, painless sacrifice will not be permanent. It only needs to last long enough so that the billionaires realize that We, the People, still wield the power.

👏👏👏👏👏

I agree. We cannot wait for more than a month or two at the most to engage in real action action that will affect all Americans, spending boycott snd work/ school boycott, during weeks, not just weekends. In short, a general strike. Hard to organize but I feel sure it could be done if indivisible, save American movement, and other pro democracy groups, will coordinate. It is going to take something like this to get any real attention from the oligarch and Epstein classes.

drunken Pete needs to go to Iran and stand trial for war crimes

NJ Osborne's avatar

This is a little more than just a bad hair day. These folks are Looney Tunes if they think they can just walk away from this illegal undeclared, World War III !

Murdered thousands of civilians, including children at school! the devastation of human habitat and a Plume of radioactive nuclear material that will be around an estimated 200,000 years.

Add for our generals and admirals that are carrying this illegal war out, they knew what they were doing

when they allowed this malignant narcissistic sociopath to instruct them in their duties👁️🙏🏽😢

Wendy horgan's avatar

Well I hope they just walk away.

Renee Goodman's avatar

Robin, not a man, a DELUSIONAL, PSYCHOPATHIC MONSTER, that needs to be put down under!

Marlene Meister's avatar

How can 40% of Americans still approve of this disastrous regime? It boggles my mind!

Debra Ebright's avatar

40%….not, max 23-25% max !!!

Marlene Meister's avatar

I think the same, but they keep saying 40%. Even 25% is too many!

M elizabeth Anderson's avatar

I doubt it is still 40 percent. He is down in the low 30’s +/-

BellaB63's avatar

They don't and probably never did.

Pete Hegseth is a total embarrassment.
