Last Thursday, Secretary of Defense/War Pete Hegseth requested that all admirals and generals be physically present at a speech he was giving in four days, on Tuesday, in Quantico, Virginia.
I can guarantee you that at least 94% of the audience, at one point, thought, “This couldn’t have been communicated by an email?” If you’ve worked in corporate America, you know exactly what I’m saying.
I also bet at least half of the audience had this type of question go through their head, “This man who retired as a major called all active duty generals and admirals on four days’ notice just to lecture all of us in person.”
He told our enemies to “FAFO.” Hey, I understand he’s trying to emphasize it’s the greatest and most powerful military in history. But let’s not give our enemies any added motivation to harm the people who defend us.
He also said it’s unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals walking the halls of the Pentagon. Again, I get what he’s saying, and I don’t necessarily disagree, but shouldn’t leadership start from the top down?
I want to know the story about the man sitting in the middle wearing blue. Did he forget to wear his uniform? Nothing is on his shoulders, so I think it’s a suit and not a uniform. Was there assigned seating? If so, who’s at fault? Prank of the year?
Stand-up comic Cristela Alonzo has a new Netflix special, and I caught a clip of it, which made me laugh.
White people are the only ones that name their kids Jesus. White people do that. I love that for you. White people name their kids friends of Jesus, you know? Hey, there’s Mark, there’s Saul. There’s Joseph.
Josh Meyers, brother of Seth, does a great impression of Governor Gavin Newsom that’s SNL-worthy.

I can verify the first part is true, but not the second. Funny, yet sad, if true.
Lindsey Halligan, the attorney selected by Donald Trump to bring criminal charges against James Comey, has never prosecuted a case.
But, like Trump, she did get her start in reality TV — with a brief cameo on South Beach Tow.
Here is Halligan’s newly resurfaced TV moment:
