UPDATED — 07.08.2026: For John, it’s a national emergency when a Democratic candidate (not yet holding any elected office; thus allowing people to vote AGAINST his placement!) shows low character traits/behavior.
But when the GOP or MAGA politicians engage in worse, there’s only stoney silence over at Powerline blog.
Thanks to Rigby McGuire — we must also point out the Whiskey Pete is the (entirely unelected) man IN CHARGE of all our armed forces — and as such, has now repeatedly refused to advance the careers of women and people of color, despite very clear merit-based promotion recommendations of their commanding officers.
He is a pure whyte supremacist — controlling every aspect of the lives of over two million families in the armed forces (and reserves).
This below may be hilarious — as to Hinderaker’s myopia. But not hilarious, at all. Hegseth (a bearer of racist tattoos himself, and also repeatedly credibly accused of sexual violence) is once again pretending that servicemen of color don’t get razor bumps — and he’d rather see infections that sideline soldiers, than have an active fully armed fighting force. All due to… racist tropes. Damn. End, updated portion.
So — today we learn that John Hinderaker is more worked up about what a few tiny placards inside the Smithsonian Institution provide — as contextual copy… than he is that the guy he voted for as leader of the free world has essentially grafted his way to $2.2 billion in under his first two years in office.
Placards containing some mild left leaning (truth-telling, actually) text/copy — versus corrupt, self-benefitting business dealings (some just simple, straight-ahead direct felonious bribes) — to the tune of $2.2 billion.
Wow.
Well, no one ever accused John of having any sort of a mature, balanced sense of proportion — when he was practicing law… so I don’t know why anyone would expect that he would understand any of this, but I’ll put it out here anyway.
This guy is a Trumpian bootlicker of the first order. He is using the office, and the taxpayers money to essentially steal from you, John. Don’t you care about that?
Out.
I was surprised to see John offering a spirited defense of Graham Platner’s racist tattoo, as well as the sexual assault allegation against him. It was really quite something.
Oh wait. I just clicked on the link, and I realized it was about Pete Hegseth.
