Trump brought a baby that was orphaned from the shooting (parents shielded baby with their bodies) that was discharged before his photo op back to the hospital for that lovely picture

I misread that headline as he gave a thumbsup to parents after their baby had been killed.

Yeah it's real obvious that none of the other survivors wanted to have anything to do with him, so he had to settle for getting a cheap photo with the only survivor who couldn't say no.

same, but grieving people are in pain and might not be able to see it that way at the time . They're essentially victims too and I just think it's lovely to judge their motivations when they're coopted like this.

I try and disconnect the various high level people from the jobs they do and the actual person they are.

Like I served under McMaster in Iraq. He was a fantastic BDE commander. Then he got his first star and hosed off elsewhere and years later ended up being the NSA and turns out that whoops, he's a horrible loving person. Shim is probably the same w/ Flynn.

Mattis is the same way. He was by all means a good general, and then he got out and did literally the same thing that almost every general does and got in on the grift. Then he became SecDef and objectively did a good job there that was considerably amplified by the fact that every other appointee in the administration is a horrible monster. Now he's back on the grift train on GD's board. I don't blame him, and seeing some people melt down over it has been incredibly amusing.

He does blame "both parties" for not doing anything instead of calling out who is blocking gun reform specifically, but that seems to be par for the course.

This whole Twitter thread is pretty nuts, but the short version is the police detained and eventually released a 21y/o white male outside of a migrant center who was sporting a loaded weapon, brandishing a knife and wearing nitrile gloves for some reason. Holy poo poo

Mullen is good. He was against DADT and was also against the ban on transgender troops. I was mock commissioned by him (got commissioned the day earlier by then CNO Roughhead), and got his coin when he CJCS.

He's never came off very chudly, but he is also a career military officer and has hangups naturally associated with people similarly situated.

Seems to me like this guy deserves a lot closer scrutiny by the police and FBI.

Unfortunately (since they can't arrest him), as it reads, he didn't commit any crime. So loving creepy that he was wearing gloves, though. What the gently caress?
