Fuck Marvel and D.C., the Tories are legitimate supervillains - they're all detestable and far more hard line than Theresa May which is scary.

Boris Johnson as PM? Parliament and the EU will be less inclined to negotiate with him.

Fox’s Hegseth Continues Pressure Campaign Urging Trump To Pardon War Criminals

Fox News’ Pete Hegseth, who has reportedly lobbied President Trump to pardon men accused of war crimes, ramped up his pressure campaign in a new op-ed on FoxNews.com.

Hegseth said the U.S. needs to reevaluate what it considers to be “war crimes” and admitted he thought about “taking justice into our own hands” while unhanding Iraqi men when he served overseas.

“I was tasked with releasing Iraqi men who we knew had American blood on their hands,” he wrote. “The lawyers told us we had to. Did we think about taking justice into our own hands? Sure we did. The only thing that keeps me up at night is wondering whether those jihadists went on to kill Americans.”

Hegseth did not explicitly say he privately asked the President about issuing pardons for Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher — who is accused of murdering an Islamic State prisoner — Green Beret Matt Golstyen, or 1st Lieutenant Clint Lorrence, but he listed them as examples of accused war criminals who he believes should be pardoned.

“Since my tours, I’ve thought a great deal about rules of engagement, ‘war crimes,’ and the way we fight wars,” he wrote. “I’ve lived it and talked about it. My experience is that—if we want to win this long war—we need to back our warfighters, to include rewriting our rules.

“Our boys did their job, it’s time for us to have their backs,” he said.

Hegseth has not been quiet about his interest in the pardons of military personnel accused of war crimes and has even publicly advocated for the pardons on Fox News. The Daily Beast reported earlier this week that his public advocacy turned private in recent months as he engaged in private talks with Trump about the men’s pardons.

Trump Hints At Troop Pardons: We Teach Them To Fight, Then They’re ‘Treated Very Unfairly’


While President Trump said he hadn’t made any decisions yet on future pardonsfor military personnel on trial for war crimes, he hinted on Friday which way he might be leaning.


Speaking to reporters before leaving for Japan, Trump was at first non-committal before he suggested that troops shouldn’t be punished when “we teach them how to be great fighters.”

“We’re looking at a lot of different pardons for a lot of different people. Some of these soldiers are people that have fought hard, long. We teach them how to be great fighters and then when they fight sometimes they get really treated very unfairly,” he said. “So, we’re going to take a look at it. I haven’t done anything yet. I haven’t made any decisions. There’s two or three of them right now. It’s a little bit controversial. It’s very possible that I’ll let the trials go on and I’ll make my decision after the trial.”

The Daily Beast reported earlier this week that a Fox News host, who has been vocal about his support for several military personnel currently in custody for alleged war crimes, has been privately lobbying Trump to pardon several former members of the military, including Eddie Gallagher, who is accused of murdering an Islamic State prisoner who was getting medical treatment.

Anyone who believes any of this is an idiot, idc. How convenient the 80 year old career politician of your party is super "sharp" and all there, but your political rival whos younger than her by close to a decade and just started politics is losing it. More proof people of both parties need to be voted out immediately and replaced with younger people who are independent.
