Sheesh, you guys. Will you stop bugging Pete about that $60 million plane that went down to Davy Jones’ Locker today and will stay there forevermore? Or, at least unless and until Vladimir is able to do something about it and grab it off the ocean bottom. I mean a $60 million piece of equipment is a $60 million piece of equipment. And hey, let’s be fair. Yes, a plane fell off an aircraft carrier but back in 2017 an entire aircraft carrier went missing. Remember this fiasco?
My Gawd, I had forgotten how horrifically bad Spicer was at his job. Memories are kind, the rough edges tend to be forgotten. This guy was a total lost soul.
But back to the present day and Hegseth’s problem:
Are we sure the last 100 plus days haven't just been one long goddamn SNL skit? Can we just cut it now and go back to real life?

Wouldn’t that be wonderful? Unfortunately, we bought a ticket to this shitshow for four interminable years, although things could change for the better in 2026. Let us work daily towards that goal.
Vladimir is not happy with news of this screw up. He could use an F-18. In fact, he could use several. And he’ll probably ask Pete to pony up after he taps enough of his communications to have enough on him to extort something like that from him. Vladimir is nothing if not a pragmatist.
You can take the boy out of Fox News, but you can’t take the Fox News out of the boy.

Zoomers, we are always in need of donations. It’s been an especially rough month and my own health has not been great these past few weeks, which just adds to the frustration. Anything you can spare will be immensely appreciated. And thank you to all who have donated generously already. Ursula
Vladdy Daddy!
I don’t even want to think how compromised we are.
I might be in a minority of one here, but I don’t think THIS ONE is Sec. Hegseth’s fault.
Possibly not anyone’s fault, in fact. These things happen during active operations, although I have no doubt a procedural review is underway (or completed) on the ship itself.
Really? I was in the Navy two years…never heard of a fighter jet sliding into the sea just because of maneuvers. Having some pissant boat of rebels to CAUSE/FORCE a naval aircraft carrier to lose one sounds like incompetence. They have the capability to stop a close approach of any kind. Given the trust fund nazi at the top, who only played solider at school, and a rapist drunk in charge of defense…well the evidence suggest the rot continues. Glad I’m not in the service today…my time would be spent in the brig for refusing orders from traitors to our Constitution and Democracy.
Unless Petey Boy is caught molesting an 8 year old Cub Scout, it’s already common knowledge that he’s a blackout drunk, guilty of sexual assault and massively underqualified for the jon. I can’t think of anything Vlad could use for blackmail. Maybe flushing military funds into.his own account? Pedophilia?
