Swamp Weasels for Kamala

Seven hundred past and present intelligence and other government officials and retired military officers have endorsed Kamala Harris. This includes at least some of the "dirty fifty-one" who assured us that Hunter's laptop was fake, and the same crowd who pretended that the Steele dossier was real. People who have gutted our national defense with DEI hiring and the insane Obama policy deference to Islamist nutballs, while also calling for government censorship of critics, have declared that Xi, et al, would prefer Trump, an allegation even more absurd than their previous consensus on Hunter and Steele.

On the downside, it is depressing that within government and academia, mere titles and tenure are presented as viable substitutes for competence and character. It is deeply pathetic that these people believe they are remotely trustworthy.

On the upside, it's nice to have a working list to start draining the swamp if the opportunity arises in 2025.

    Several actions in recent years have greatly diminished any reasonable reliance on the word of "former intelligence officials" or "retired military officers."

    My, oh my! Don't you understand that these are the people with "credentials" who merit your support?

    High rank insignia or a long agency title may or may not be an indication of competence but is it proof certain that that individual has never misgendered anyone nor flunked a racial sensitivity questionnaire.

    During the Trump-Harris debate, Harris blathered on about how she has the endorsement of Vice President Dick Cheney. When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Dick Cheney are both supporting the same presidential candidate, something is going on.
