Who would have thought putting a alcoholic, sad tv personality, with no requisite should in charge of the armed forces would lead to such catastrophic results?

It was the second jet to go overboard the Truman in as many weeks.

Oh this is the one from earlier this week. I thought a third one fell off.

A third fighter jet was accidentally shot down over the Red Sea in December by another Navy warship, the USS Gettysburg, raising questions about how well warships and fighter jets in the region are communicating, the Post reported.

Whelp!

Yeah, still "only" two Hegseth submarines.

The third is yet to dive.

No but we can all agree that this is Biden's fault, right ? He bloody pushed them off the boat and we all know it, that little shit.

Thank god they've saved (spent) tons of money by fucking attacking federal civilian employees and destroying their livelihoods and ability to provide for the public services.

Every shithead right wing voter: "well I still think the government can stand to be smaller.."

Fucking morons
