So he used money from the government given to one of his companies to buy trucks from another one of his companies, so he could prop up the bottom line of his business. We the tax payers are funding his failing businesses.
A new report confirms that a recent, conspicuously white and male promotion list was no accident.
Edith Olmsted at TNR:
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is continuing his discriminatory campaign to remake the U.S. military in his image. Last month, a list of nearly two dozen one-star promotions included no women and only two nonwhite officers. On Monday, The New York Times was able to reveal exactly how that happened.
Hegseth personally intervened to block the promotion of several senior Navy officers, including at least two female officers and two Black male officers, four current and former defense officials told the paper.
This is not the first time Hegseth has moved to block or delay the promotion of female and Black military officers. He did the same thing to Army officers in March, and has reportedly thwarted the advancements of more than one dozen female and Black officers across the Army, Air Force, Navy, and the Marines.
[...]
Pentagon rules say that the secretary can only block promotions if there is an issue related to a service member’s fitness to lead—not their identities, or whatever other problem Hegseth seems to have with them.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has a vendetta against Black and women officers by denying Black and women officers their overdue promotions in various military branches.
A lot of you don't realize how radicalized this Trump term has made many of us. I was a moderate Dem for many years. I'm so fucking sick of what we're living through. I want to shove liberal policy down the fucking throats of every Republican in this country. I want every moderate Democrat to be primaried into oblivion. I'm so fucking done with this bullshit incrementalism. I want a future where we tax the rich out of existence and massively expand social programs
