This is a must read article. "Dumb McNamara" is quite fitting. If he were invited to go deep-sea fishing, he would insist on using a nuclear submarine.
An unserious speech from an unserious person, but with a fair amount of civil-military damage in the mix. Hegseth's nickname around the Pentagon is "Dumb McNamara," and he went the distance to earn that one today at the Naval War College.

Incredible, and by that I mean, "fully predictable that this Pentagon leadership would do something this unethical and petty"
EXCLUSIVE: For the first time, a Pentagon official explains exactly how @SecWar blocked the promotions of women and people of color from the military's most senior ranks. Some say the new process is illegal. My latest for @MSNOWNews ms.now/news/pete-hegseth-pen…

Despite a record measles outbreak across the US there’s no high-profile media campaign from the government urging parents to vaccinate their children. It doesn’t make sense and thousands of kids and adults are paying the price.

Take the time to read this article by @DavidAFrench. Open the links and read them, too. Read slowly and let this sink in. As I spent the past months in #NC on the road listening to folks, this is exactly what I heard.

To everyone who voted for Democrats and Independents caucusing with Dems, thank you! No matter what your voter registration shows as your party we all celebrate the election results together. Your vote (your superpower) put America on the path to make Trumpism extinct.

Leader @HakeemJeffries: Republicans might have started this redistricting battle, but Democrats finished it.
They messed around, and now they’re going to find out.

Among the constellation of bright spots in Tuesday's election was the defeat of Republican Alamance County Sheriff Terry Johnson, who for 24 years has courted allegations of brutality, incompetence, and ugly, gutter racism.
Johnson was defeated this week by Independent challenger Shannon Long, a former detentions officer who now works as a pastor and barber in Mebane.

Maddow: It is Black women who won every single one of those races in Georgia for the Democrats—governor, secretary of state, attorney general, agriculture commissioner, insurance commissioner, school superintendent, labor commissioner and public service commissioner.

Last night, North Carolina made it clear what kind of future we want. Our state set the tone for the country and elected outstanding public servants from the mountains to the coast.
We flipped the North Carolina House, ending over a decade of one-party control. We’re sending strong leaders to the U.S. House, who will be my colleagues. And we re-elected Justice Earls to the Supreme Court and our slate of judges to the Court of Appeals, who will uphold our laws and protect North Carolinians.
Congratulations to everyone chosen by the people of North Carolina last night. Governing is hard work — time to get to it.
