- A huckleberry is a small, wild, round North American berry belonging to the heath family. Ranging in color from red and blue to deep black, they look like blueberries but feature a more intense, tart flavor, larger seeds, and resist commercial farming.
If our asshole president is going to stoop so low as to put words in the mouths of dead soldiers for propaganda purposes, the least his administration could do is to give those soldiers the full honors they are due.
When the Bush administration used Pat Tillman for propaganda, they at least pretended to honor him. They lied to the nation and to his family, but they didn't memory-hole him. This is like, "yeah, they're dead, but it doesn't count because we called time out first."
This is such a fucking stooopitt evil country full of abject morons who don't deserve the right to be called sentient or sapient...and they vote. And Americans are cowards for not manning up and dealing with the blight in the White House once and for all.
One is quietly dishonest, while the other is factually dishonest and impacts the level of honor, such as it is in this country, the people who died earned.
It's all terrible and fucked up, but the government denying the deaths of 4 service members is extra fucked up.
This is awesome. Only under the leadership of the Greatest President and Military Leader Ever, could combat deaths actually go down. It's like he brought them back to life!
"The New York Times broke the story Thursday (gift link), pointing out that on Wednesday, the Pentagon’s “Defense Casualty Analysis System” (DCAS) showed that 18 US service members have died during “Operation Epic Fury.” Then on Thursday, that number changed to 14 deaths, which is what the site still showed on Friday."
Trump and Hagueseth will probably file suit or force DOJ to drop subpoenas on the NYT tomorrow.
Captain Queeg: "Ahh, but the strawberries! That's - that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with - geometric logic - that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist! And I'd have PRODUCED that key if they hadn't've pulled the Caine out of action! I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers -

Mine had to suffer a lot of disappointment and hardship, worked some of the shittiest factory jobs imaginable, and never complained about any of it for one single second.
Did the means of production seize the timeline again, or something like that?
It's not like RFK the wurst hit him in his van. Nothing survives that.
The commander in chief, Dr. A.I. Donald Jesus, resurrected four soldiers. That’s why the death toll went down

I still don't get it.
History will look back and observe the great irony of Twitler calling his social media propaganda organ TRUTH.

He likes them for sir stories, because they say sir a lot.
Does anypony remember the pentagon’s credibility gap?
Or even the concept of credibility?
It's baaaaack!
Perhaps an audit.
Auditors should add Louiseville Sluggers to their tool box.
A $trillon five and wars cost extra.
“don’t ask us, audits are hard!”
yes
The Pentagon *is* a credibility gap with Hogsweat in charge. Fucking rancid dickfuck!

Yeah but, Paris Hilton made an ass of herself at some upper west side bar where no one can identify their congressional rep.
Everyone has Paris on Tic Tac.
Ta, Dok. For fuck's fucking sake, this is insane.
It is, but is it that different from Bush not allowing photos of their coffins? They're both horrible *and* insane, but is it that different?

But on a positive note, transits through Hormuz are at all time lows.
I'm sure there are people in the prediction markets making bank on that.
trump needs to eat a fuckin bag. The nerve to stand on the tarmac at Dover.
Your podiatrist on line two.
The suckers and losers can wait.
I searched Amazon for "fuckin bags." I suppose I'll have to go onto the dark web to find out what that is.
It’s a euphemism used in our popular nomenclature to denote genitalia.
He used Arlington cemetery as a photo op. That still makes me angry.
Sharty is the King of Dickfuckery. He can't read, so how can we expect him to read a fucking room?

The McConnell Magic!! YMMV

Then we'll see another headline like this:

Reuters: U.S. PROSECUTORS WILL WITHDRAW SUBPOENAS AGAINST NEW YORK TIMES REPORTERS IN TRUMP FLIGHT LEAK PROBE, COURT HEARING
It's appalling.
It feels so silly to even say, but, 'can you imagine if Presidents Obama or Biden had done this'???
Private bone spurs and Pete at Dover seen valor pillaging.
Fuck you two. You dishonor our honorable.

You're goddamn right I stole those cookies! You want me on that wall! You need me on that wall!

Keel-haul these incompetent traitors.
Bogart's best role.
Now I think I might look up that scene on YouTube.
I served honorably in the USMC. To witness this corpulent, 5 time draft dodging POS "receive" the remains of our fallen chaps my ass.
My dad was USMC. Respect.
Wasn't easy, it ain't hard.
Just do what you fuckin should.
Dad fought on Saipan. Doing what he should didn't come easy.
But he did it.
I never saw combat, don’t pretend otherwise. But yeah, dad did what was required for the moment. If it were easy he wouldn’t be our dad.
Mine had to suffer a lot of disappointment and hardship, worked some of the shittiest factory jobs imaginable, and never complained about any of it for one single second.
A far better man than I. I bitch all the time about nothing.
