Pete Hegseth wants to live in a world in which the US military can drop bombs on scores of children and face no serious media scrutiny for it. His vile claim that he can't wait for David Ellison to run CNN shows he pines for oligarchic control of media.

You know what the Strait of Hormuz DOESNβT cut off?
Wind turbines. UBI. public transit. Taxing billionaires and redistributing it to the regular people who created that wealth. Solar panels. A plant based diet. Bike lanes.
Notice that those in power donβt know what to do and theyβre incompetent. Notice thereβs no opposition to those incompetent criminals.
This is on us. You and me. We have to act because weβre the adults in the room. Thatβs what a revolution is. That realization.
