    Imagine being at work, about to get put on a PIP, and you think now is the time to apply for a promotion.

    Dude should have to blow a breathalyzer to log in at work as it is.

    Any investigation is likely to involve the House Oversight Committee, the Judiciary Committee and the Armed Services Committee and could revolve around last year’s “Signalgate” scandal, in which Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg was accidentally added to a group chat with senior Cabinet officials in which sensitive information was shared and discussed.

    Clearly that is his greatest sin, not the extrajudicial executions of fishermen, the illegal war on Iran, or the ideological and prejudiced purges of the DoD. If he’d just had better opsec he’d be good.

        I’m sick and tired of this bullshit “factoid” Americans use to justify accepting fuck-ass outcomes. Capone served 8 years, and his criminal enterprise was even more violent and successful after he went away. If, and big fuckin if, Hegseth gets more than a slap on the wrist, he’s going to get book deals and media appearances the rest of his life. What broke the actual criminal hold on Chicago wasn’t “tax fraud,” it was repealing prohibition. Almost like locking figureheads up does jack shit, and actually legislating away systemic issues does infinitely more. Go figure.

          Doesn’t it suck? That’s what we mean when we say the criminal justice system is broken. It’s intentionally lenient on the worst people.
