The problem with this kind of conflict is that history always repeats itself right before our eyes, and we just keep making the exact same mistakes.

Hegseth is useless. He isn't going anywhere though, not unless Trump fires him or the republicans agree to impeach him. The democrats do not have a super majority.

somtime after jan 3 kegsbreth will be impeached . it may be more difficult to push it in the senate to get him removed but people will get to see what pubbies need to be voted out next election by how they vote.<br><br>for donald duck and his pubbies to resist the mandate of the american people will only result in more losses in two years.

It’s amazing he&#39;s still doing the political equivalent of pretending to look hard by walking down the street. It&#39;s like these people can&#39;t comprehend that everything they&#39;ve done has been televised around the world for the last two years… just off the top of my head, he’s guilty of instructing the murder of innocent civilians in South America, but hey, the West is comfortable with war crimes, so it&#39;s not shocking, I guess.

Pete Hegseth, Rubio, Vance, Trumps much harder days are coming ahead starting from Jan 1st. Hegseth can survive Impeachment now. But after Jan 1st no one can stand against Republicans Impeachment. All Trump admin are criminals and will be prosecuted next year, the right time.

Any British politician bringing Trumps illegal war of aggression to the UK by lending bases to US terrorists is a traitor to the people. If Iran retaliates against the UK the only people who should be held accountable are those politicians.

On 28 February 2026, the US struck the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls Elementary School in Minab Iran, with Tomahawk missiles, at least 170 people, most of them children, were killed and dozens more were injured, reportedly the deadliest strike on a civilian target in the 21st century.

@vwk7019Imported13h ago
Maritime law enforcement is not equivalent to military warfare: In a September 2026 statement, UN human rights experts emphasized that drug cartels have not launched an armed attack against the United States, and therefore the U.S. military cannot invoke the &quot;right of self-defense&quot; under Article 51 of the UN Charter. Counter-narcotics operations at sea fall within the scope of law enforcement, and international law does not permit governments to arbitrarily kill suspects on the high seas without a trial.

Despite the threat of impeachment, Hegseth still doesn&#39;t understand the reasons and continues to refer to military personnel as warriors. Therefore reenforcing why exactly the thick as two short planks lunatic must be removed from office.

During the 2026 conflict with Iran, 13 U.S. military bases in the Middle East were temporarily rendered nearly uninhabitable due to sustained missile and drone strikes. Hegseth and Trump are losers.
