The SECNAV is not a senior officer, has no operational role, does not issue orders. He was a rich, art-collector donor who probably got sideways with Hegseth by just not liking him.
Stop looking for the Tom Clancy movie version of everything.

The coolest thing about solar energy is that you don't need to invade another country to go get it. GREENPEACE
They cut SNAP, Medicaid, ACA subsidies and cancer research so we could bail out Argentina, the UAE, farmers and Spirit Airlines.
HAHAHA! That response killed me. And it's so damn true.
Hey folks! If you follow me, please understand my position on this issue. Trump is NOT the problem. Trump is the symptom of the problem. The real problem in the U.S. right now is the Republican Party. We must defeat the Republican Party everywhere. When we defeat them, Trump falls too!
These incredible Buff Tip Moths blend in so well with branches that you might mistake them for sticks. Nature's masters of disguise are truly fascinating!
Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement
Beautiful
Screenshotted excerpt from linked article reading as follows: "In public, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has cultivated a reputation for care and caution. The papers reveal a different side of him. At a critical moment for the country and the court, the papers show, he acted as a bulldozer in pushing to stop Mr. Obama’s plan to address the global climate crisis. When colleagues warned the chief justice that he was proposing an unprecedented move, he was dismissive. “I recognize that the posture of this stay request is not typical,” he wrote. But he argued that the Obama plan, which aimed to regulate coal-fired plants, was “the most expensive regulation ever imposed on the power sector,” and too big, costly and consequential for the court not to act immediately."

New York Times got receipts on John Roberts being like, 'I know this isn't how anything works, but a Democratic president is about to implement a policy!!'

The President of the United States calling NATO a paper tiger is Soviet propaganda and I hope someone is writing all this shit down for later
I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business.

Peter Schiff: The most likely explanation for Trump's Truth Social lies about Iran on Friday, is market manipulation. If so, Trump insiders must have made billions. The next likely possibility is that Trump is either delusional, incompetent, or a combination of both. Either way it's not good.
If journalists had any integrity and courage, they would boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner. It should be as empty as a TPUSA event.
Donald Trump is a reflection of what America has become: a nation comprised primarily of uneducated, arrogant, racist buffoons without a conscience or even basic social skills, scamming their way thru life with impunity while believing that laws apply only to other people— never to them.
Why have grocery prices been going up on a weekly basis?
At this point it is just pure greed.
They are making more profits than they have ever been.
I mean. It is literally on a weekly basis.
The new French Revolution can’t come fast enough.
Stop praising Orbán for not attempting a coup.
He only stepped down because Magyar's win was too massive to steal.
He rigged the constitution, captured the institutions, and used state media to his advantage.
He did everything he could to destroy democracy, and he failed

This is the kind of leadership America should have. I’m disgusted every day seeing the treasonous criminal filth that infests the US govt today.

L.L. Bean has taken the position that it won’t support the Save the Forest Service movement, with messaging along the lines of avoiding political engagement.

ICE shot a man on the side of I-5 in California this morning.
Before we even know if he's alive, ICE has a press release out explaining why he deserved it.
There is no death penalty in this country for being accused of a crime. ICE is not judge, jury, or executioner.

Earth and Moon from DSCOVR NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured this unique view of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month. This view shows the fully illuminated “dark side” of the moon that is never visible from Earth. Ian Regan processed this version of the image to account for the Moon's motion. NASA / NOAA / Ian Regan
I hadn't seen this before. This is pretty remarkable.
