Remember when every stupid Nazi Republican complained about Obama making the US military a laughing stock. Well congrats on the idiots for actually making it happen.

Well, given his incompetence and loyalty to Trump, the purges already happening in government agencies by other Project 2025 enablers, and Hegseth's own previous comments about getting rid of any generals who don't kiss the ring, I'm just going to call it and say as of this moment the U.S. military is also captured by fascism.
History may view this as the biggest game-over moment (apart from the election), depending on how things go.

Mitch McConnell, widely considered to be the worst person in the US during the Obama presidency, the most craven GOP nihilist in remembered history who single-handedly stole two Supreme Court seats and sought to strip healthcare for tens of millions of Americans without even bothering to come up with an alternate plan, voted against this guy and lost because the rest of the GOP senate was somehow even more craven and nihilistic.
We're through the looking glass here people.

They have whips so they pretty much knew the outcome before the vote. They probably just allowed a few defectors to say they are still "independent" and not simply an extension of the Executive.

Like many other things this should be illegal. What VP, besides Pence, would counter their own President? It should be 51 votes or cough up another nominee.

In fairness, there’s a logic: the people elected a scumbag as POTUS and the people’s representatives vet a scumbag as defense secretary; they do what the people want!

Can't really argue with you there. I would say to anyone sane and anyone who's a minority to really look into 2A and drone tech because America is about to have a literal Nazi army in your back yard.
