*** US Secretary of War Crimes Delivers Another Boring, Unimaginative Speech ***

The most underqualified Secretary of Defense in US history, a pro-Kremlin alcoholic who was accused of paying $50,000 to a woman he sexually assaulted in 2017, launched a full-throated attack on post-Cold War US foreign policy, castigating former presidents and generals by name while declaring the age of American "utopian idealism" over.

US Secretary of War Crimes Pete "Hic!" Hegseth, mired in an idiotic OPSEC imbroglio of his own making ("Signalgate") and accused of ordering the murder of defenseless alleged drug traffickers in the Caribbean Sea, bleated talking points to a bored audience at the annual Reagan Defense Forum. The heavily-tattooed misogynist outlined a new military focus on the Western Hemisphere, demanded allies fend for themselves, and emphasized taking a more conciliatory approach to China's armed forces. In essence this lickspittle conceded that Dummkopf Trumpf will let Beijing eclipse US military hegemony in the Pacific, therefore potentially abandoning allies like Taiwan, South Korea, or Japan.

The former second-rate weekend TV tumor for Faux News mindlessly parroted the scrambled ideas released in the new National Security Strategy.

"Out with idealistic utopianism," Hegseth brayed. "In with hard-nosed realism."

The white supremacist, called an "abuser of women" by his own mother, only made a passing reference to Russia, ignoring the staggering amount of lives lost on both sides, the dangers of radiation leaks from Chernobyl caused by Russian attacks, or the Trumpf junta's failed peace plans which worked in the Kremlin's favor.

The chisel-chinned sycophant's screed revealed the nefarious Trumpf junta is moving toward a policy that recognizes zones of influence by the great powers and will ignore war crimes committed by Russia and Israel, as well as Chinese internal oppression of Uighurs, Tibetans, Falon Gong members, and Honk Kongese democracy advocates, while divvying up the world's natural resources, like oil or rare earths.

#20 Apparently, Left Hind Turds completely forgot about this:

Nuns with dated ID turned away at Ind. polls

About 12 Indiana nuns were turned away Tuesday from a polling place by a fellow sister because they didn't have state or federal identification bearing a photograph.

They've been trying to take away Americas' right to vote for some time now.

Your insistence on the bullexcrement of "no one is taking away voting rights" sounds a lot like the insane postings of Major DEI Boazo about how there's absolutely no democracy in America.

David Bowiw - Within You

How you turn my world, you precious thing
You starve and near exhaust me
Everything I've done, I've done for you
I move the stars for no one

You've run so long, you've run so far
Your eyes can be so cruel
Just as I can be so cruel
Oh, I do believe in you
Yes, I do

Live without your sunlight
Love without your heartbeat
I, I can't live within you

I can't live within you

I, I can't live within you

There was a time, in the not too distant past, when Kennedy Center honors meant something besides being champion ass kissers.
Thank goodness for Tom Hanks.

...
[Verse 1]
Marky got with Sharon, Sharon got Cherese
She was sharing Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease
Mikey had a facial scar and Bobby was a racist
They were all in love with dyin', they were doing it in Texas
Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain
And then he lost his leg in Dallas, he was dancing with a train
They were all in love with dyin', they were drinking from a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche comin' down the mountain

[Chorus]
I don't mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how to look
Through other people's eyes

[Verse 2]
Some will die in hot pursuit in fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche comin' down the mountain

[Chorus]
I don't mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through other people's eyes
...




Heavy stuff.

...
This song, a tribute to Indian composer and singer Asha Bhosle ...

[Intro]
"Mai Keha Sadi Asha Jhinah Sadian Sukh Sabelian Nu Din Raat Nu Aoondian Hain, Kimarh Karke"

[Verse 1]
There's dancing, behind movie scenes
Behind the movie scenes - Sadi Rani
She's the one that keeps the dream alive
From the morning, past the evening
Till the end of the light

[Chorus]
Brimful of Asha on the forty-five
Well, it's a brimful of Asha on the forty-five
Brimful of Asha on the forty-five
Well, it's a brimful of Asha on the forty-five

[Verse 2]
And dancing, behind movie scenes
Behind those movie screens - Asha Bhosle
She's the one that keeps the dream alive
From the morning, past the evening
Till the end of the light

[Chorus]
Brimful of Asha on the forty-five
Well, it's a brimful of Asha on the forty-five
Brimful of Asha on the forty-five
Well, it's a brimful of Asha on the forty-five

[Verse 3]
And singing, illuminate the main streets and the cinema aisles
We don't care about no government warning
About that promotion of the simple life
And the dams they're building

...

[Post Chorus]
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow
Everybody needs a bosom
Mine's on the forty-five
...

Folk Implosion - Insinuation (1997)

Lyrics excerpt ...

genius.com

...
[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1: John Davis]
Commit an act of memory
Knuckle down or buckle under
Sing part of the scream, believe
Cut it down in the mouth of drama

[Verse 2: John Davis]
Another break in the pattern
Another fight for the flashlight
Tick tock on a broken clock
I'll be headed for midnight

[Chorus 1: Lou Barlow]
Insinuation really makes it happen
And your opinion is a nice surprise

[Verse 3: John Davis]
Tongue-tied, get dignified
Open my pride, find a map inside
Find a break in the pattern
Take your time to relax

[Verse 4: John Davis]
Commit this act to memory
Sing part of the scream, believe
Knuckle down, don't buckle under
Cut it down in the mouth of drama

[Chorus 1: Lou Barlow]
Insinuation really makes it happen
And your opinion is a nice surprise
But you're early for the Armageddon
If all we know and ever memorize lives on, lives on

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5: John Davis]
This battle magnified
Perfect sized
There's no problem
Offer you a ride, but the engine died
Another break in the pattern

[Chorus 2: Lou Barlow]
Insinuation really makes it happen
And your opinion opened up my eyes
It kept me itchin' with the contradiction
That all we know and ever memorize lives on

[Outro: John Davis, Lou Barlow]
Insinuation really makes it happen (Lives on, lives on)
And your opinion opened up my eyes (Lives on, lives on)
It kept me itchin' with the contradiction (Lives on, lives on)
That all we know and ever memorize lives on (Lives on)

Insinuation really makes it happen (Like a childhood memory, lives on, like a childhood memory, lives on)

And your opinion is a nice surprise (Like a childhood memory, lives on, like a childhood memory, lives on)
But you're early for the Armageddon (Like a childhood memory, lives on, like a childhood memory, lives on)
If all we know and ever memorize lives on (Like a childhood memory, lives on, like a childhood memory, lives on)
Lives on (Like a childhood memory, lives on, like a childhood memory)
