The fact these 2 sentences are right next to each other is hilarious. You think the DNC, who's actively campaigning against the progressive/left half of their candidates is being run by progressives? As a guy in the actual political shit right now, this is a ludicrous statement. Vilifying intuitions and norms that made our society possible and prosperous...Jesus Christ. The last 2 years have been a wrecking ball to that, but I guess you didn't mind those institutions and norms getting torched? Any way, we win this war yet? Oh nope, TACO TRUMP again.

Until the "thin blue line" bullshit stops none of this will. These cops just go to some other dept and get hired.

Well, isn't this the most corrupt shite - https://www.npr.org/2026/08/01/nx-s1-5912219/trump-truth-social-access-insider-trading "Starting Saturday, for a fee of up to $100,000 a month, trading firms can access "Truth API" to get a glimpse of the president's often market-moving announcements about economic policy and global affairs before the rest of the world." Won't even get into his crypto bullshit, literally stealing from his followers. "Kamala woulda been worse." lel

Actually got a chance to listen to his speech. I don't think it's as big a deal as I did before, however share @ClearedHot concerns.

Our Pres is now getting handled around like Biden did towards the end. FIFA president guiding him around by the arm, confused look on Donnies face. Erdogan same thing.

Don't worry about it.

Yea, that anthrax vaccine sucked.

It's very interesting what you take from comments. The gov't shouldn't be forcing testing for just this. I like @brabus comment where this is a holistic approach to improving the health of war fighters. Because this impacts me personally I've read a lot about it. Testing dudes over 30 mandatory smacks of just the stupidity and overreach of this admin. Just like, "no more flu shots" and how'd that work out? We should all have a health "passport" that follows us through service. Would make VA claims a hell of a lot more streamlined. You come in and are tested for a myriad of "shitload of more things" as @brabus puts it. Then it gets updated yearly, biannually, whatever, so you can track that shit. It took 3 different dosing regimens to figure out where my numbers should be. If I had gotten tested in my early 20's, biannually through retirement, we could have figured all of this shit out for a whole lot less ass-pain, and cheaper since I was doing almost quarterly tests the last 2 years to get the docs to do something. Not sure why the snide comment for women. They have hormone issues to, my wife a former bag wearer is in the same boat -- USAF did fuck all. Hormones impact all facets of life, so yes. Women should also have a health passport through service. If you think we should go back to women not serving because "we don't care" that's on you and irrelevant to the point I'm making, or even this topic. Overall, not the worst thing, but stupid in comms and implementation. Clearly tied to his imaginary ideal of what a warrior actually is. Just thought how his interactions with LeMay would have gone.

Legit wonder. I shall Claude it as that's about as reliable. Then Google. Then I'll kill a chicken and look at the pattern of bones and blood for a final conclusion.

You know we are celebrating 250 years of not having to root for them right?

So does the WPA counter restart?

Huh, this hits close to home for me. I spent the last 5 years trying to get treated for low-t. Put the balls through a ringer trying (and failing) to have kids with the wife. The "docs" wouldn't do shit. You know how hard it is physically to be low t and work out for the PT test? I could never recover, constantly tired. Testing BELOW 300ng/do and the fucking prick said, "That's what the APA says, but I go to 200." Retired, went to a real doc and asked to get tested and they called me and said the scrip was in and to start ASAP. In 3 years I went from 370 to 174. That said, fuck the govt doing a mandatory test like this. I have zero confidence this stays like he said it will. Are we going to be testing females for their gonad profile? I know many broads who had the same damn issues I did. I know we have to take tb and hiv tests, I would classify those as not the same thing. All from a dude who can't bench, no less.

I meant a culture building that allowed that to happen.

Really wondered how you guys would assess and all I could think about is a few things: Using "Hooyah" un-ironically should be grounds for firing. The video of the B52 doing manoeuvers and crashing. Hoping it doesn't come to that before this admin is over.

What a shit showing for the final game. Didn't play like Americans at all. No grit, no heart. Perhaps all the political shit with the red card messed with their heads. It was extremely disappointing. Guess I'll root for...Spain.
