I want to apologize to @BoilerFootball and @Walmart for equating the team's selection of a head defensive coach to shopping the aisles of said store. That was too generous. The university went to #DollarGeneral instead. There's at least four near campus
Any service member or federal employee whoever lost items in an overseas #PCS, don’t worry. Your items could’ve been auctioned off last week in Germany. @starsandstripes @MilitaryTimes youtu.be/XWD9SHfKldk?si…

Interesting to note the current DoD comptroller, Jules Hurst worked as a defense fellow and policy advisor for Speaker of the House Mike Johnson. Maybe getting troops paid by a third party isn’t so difficult after all.
Because the normal state of affairs maintains some modicum of civilian control of the military with Congressional oversight. To say you are ok with a single unelected businessman having a direct line of influence to the most powerful military force on the planet is quite baffling
There goes the federal grants to THE Ohio State.

"I can report" = Trump is allowing me...
BREAKING: I can report that as of 30 minutes ago, the FBI has provided the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence all requested documents related to the Congressional Baseball Game shooting in 2017. These are documents sought by Capitol Hill officials for almost 8…
Do as I say, not as I do never garners you any respect.
Pentagon employees were notified as recently as a week ago not to use Signal for government communications due to security risks. rawstory.com/pete-hegseth-s…
Dear @POTUS and @VP: you were so close to inking a good deal for U.S. and Ukraine but you fumbled the ball with your showboating. Don’t blame anyone but yourself. I’m sure Putin is shaking his head.
And if they couldn’t, we’d live in an oligarchy.
One thing I notice...many people in there are flipping the items they buy on eBay or FB Marketplace. It's a side hustle.
Goodwill, a “non-profit” thrift store. So why do prices raise on freely donated items each time I go? It’s becoming insane. Oh, don’t forget about how much the non-profit CEO makes.
I recall asking my @NASKeyWest CO about pulling travel card records of visiting squadrons to show where $ was spent as a good COMREL data point. The fighter pilot said he already knew where it went. Sailors hit the ATM going to McDonalds then Duval Street.
Troops used government cards to pay for casinos, drinks and clubbing trib.al/EuJd2hi
Instead of spending $1k on a fancy garbage processor, perhaps the $ could go towards devising a system for unused food to reach those who are hungry? @_allysonchiu washingtonpost.com/climate-soluti…
This Marine missed what I thought was most glaring: Hegseth's apparent disregard (loathing?) for JAG in rules of engagement. If confirmed, I hope @GovRonDeSantis can mentor.
I’m a Marine. I can’t get one part of the Pete Hegseth hearing out of my head. slate.trib.al/oH9Vok8
As a 37-year FED, the biggest savings I think #DOGE @elonmusk and @VivekGRamaswamy could do is change the rules that force agencies to spend down to ZERO every Sept. Let agencies carry over unspent budget to next FY.
I swear the single people in the first episode of Netflix Later Daters gotta be 10 years older than what the show says they are.
Ohio State thought they were on a Carnival Cruise instead of a football field. Classless. #goblue
First thing @DOGE should do is change the date of Inauguration Day. JAN 20 is #MLK Day--a federal holiday. Changing the date would save #FED overtime costs. @elonmusk @VivekGRamaswamy
Yep. This @LifeAtPurdue student will graduate and go on to do great things. Getting laid won't be one of them. @BarstoolPU #boilerup engineering.purdue.edu/Engr/Academics…
