    My first reaction to the title was “Why would Intel know anything? They make computer processors”

        I mean, yes, but I fail to see how that’s relevant.

    Well, finally. It took nearly a year for US news outlets to call Trump a liar for lying. Maybe it will take less time for Democrats to call a degenerate drunk a drunk.

      If he was drunk would he lie?

    In an ideal world, the Secretary of Defense and the town drunk are two different people.

        LOL even in a lunatics running the asylum world, they would know not to put the town drunk in charge of the nukes! Sure, they would do all sorts of inexcusable, irrational, funny as hell to them but really not funny at all things, but they would immediately stop in their tracks if someone said lets give the keys to the nukes to drunk Pete!?! They would give him the keys to his car sure, but NOT to the flippin’ nukes?! I don’t know what reality we’ve entered into but I don’t like it and I’m at a pretty safe distance form it all, at least for now!?

    Hegseth is just a social classified information leaker. Only when friends are around and only in moderation.
