Pentagon beat reporters left the building en masse Wednesday after they turned in access badges rather than agree to new restrictions on how they gather and report the news while covering the US military.

Censorship and force-fed propaganda, the Trumpf junta way.

"Sieg Heil!"

**** Bozo the SECDEF's Plane Makes Emergency Landing in UK ****

A cracked windshield forced Bozo's plane to land in the UK after his useless presence at a NATO summit in Belgium.

How much alcohol the dipsomaniac SECDEF drank at the NATO summit remains unclear.

Isn't this Cruella and Unusual Pun-ishment?

"Examples of cruel and unusual punishment include historical methods like the breaking wheel or burning alive, and modern instances such as excessive physical force by law enforcement, denial of necessary medical care, and grossly disproportionate sentences like life imprisonment for a minor offense.

These punishments are deemed cruel if they involve torture or are degrading, and unusual if they are disproportionate to the crime committed or no longer accepted by evolving social standards?

See? Just like being forced to listen to ---------- Pete vomit and belch onstage with his, "I'm a REAL man, guzzle whiskey and beat my wife!" act.

The DOD could not do more to incline their huge workforce to vote Democratic in 2026 even if they tried. It is this type of political ---- that really pisses mainstream voters off.
