  • It’s basically a purge of trans and gay people. Different rules for different people. You bet that if these people weren’t trans or gay that they would face no consequences for anything.

    How many guys are going to talk about their Viagra and how it makes them feel better? You know that they aren’t getting punished for talking about their own health

    Tulsi has such a stick up her ass. Nobody was hurting anyone. Nothing illegal was going on. Nobody was being harassed.

    This doesn’t have anything to do with getting better workers and has everything to do with blatant discrimination



  • The military has already been trying to “do more with less” This doesn’t seem like a great idea when war with China is right around the corner. Especially with the mess that is navy procurement. It’s actually a contrary to Republican policy goals to cut a lot of these employees. It seems to me like this hasn’t been thought through at all. They could go for the furniture funds and end of year waste, but instead they’re going to cut out some of the best talent.

    Looks like the DoD will have lots of money for furniture and won’t be able to target anything or fix anything. It’s going to cause fatigue to many of our men and women in uniform.


  • I still don’t quite understand where this space IADS is supposed to fit into national security. I suppose the idea is that the US could act with impunity against near peer nuclear powers, but that’s just going to kick off another nuclear arms race. This seems like a really easy way to make self inflicted Kessler syndrome especially since space has been mainly a EW battlefield rather than kinetic.

    Who knows what they’ve got cooking. The procurement won’t be done for at least a decade or two, though I wonder what technology today can do that SDI couldn’t in the 80s



  • Yep. After this I’m wondering which of my VA benefits will actually remain. I’ve lost my confidence that the VA will provide me anything. I can’t go to them for anything with regards to Gender Dysphoria, and I really don’t know what I can do. No way I’ll be able to get any VA disability (TBH I don’t have a great case for that anyways) but now I can’t trust my government at all now. I’m hoping that they’ll still accept DEI for veterans, especially since apparently we’re supposed to be good in society, but I still don’t have any confidence.
