What are you doing?
Like Hegseth fought in wars.
He had friends who died.
The fact that he would say that to us is like, what happened to you?
Yeah, here's a Lindsey Graham.
I'm like, why doesn't someone drop Lindsey Graham off in fucking Iran and he can go get the enriched uranium and bring it back.
Or fucking Brian Kilmeade can jump on a ship and try to go through the Strait of Hormuz.
I don't understand why the people on these tankers aren't willing to die to keep the price of crude a little bit lower.
Shame on them, the pussies.
All right.
Let's talk about the Democratic response to this very dangerous and unpopular war.
Chris Murphy's calling on Senate Dems to block everything they can until Senate Republicans agree to a vote authorizing Trump to wage war.
Then there's the funding angle.
The administration is expected to ask Congress for another $50 billion.
billion with a B to fund this war.
And what's even more infuriating is that some Democrats are still open to supporting that request.
Senator Chris Coons of Delaware said outright that he would support it, saying he wants more information from the White House, too.
And presumably, John Fetterman and some of the more centrist House members may say yes as well.
Even Hakeem Jeffries won't rule it out.
He said on Meet the Press Sunday that Trump would have a, quote, difficult case to make, but that, quote, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
