And So It Goes

Today is Monday, March 24, 2025. The latest outrage from this lawless, authoritarian regime is the accidental dissemination of classified information over a public group thread in which information about highly classified information about U.S. military strikes on Yemen was sent to a reporter for The Atlantic. And we thought Hillary Clinton was bad with her unsecured emails. That’s what the disgusting repugnicans would have you think way back in 2016, but this demands an immediate inquiry into the incompetence of this clownish administration. I’m praying that Democrats finally take an active stand here and seek answers to this glaring incompetence. we all know if this ever, ever happened under a Democratic administration, the other hypocritical side would be thoroughly enraged and promptly demand an investigation.

This breaking story is covered in a CNN online article by Katie Bo Lillis, Kaitlan Collins, Jeff Zeleny, Evan Perez, Oren Libermann, Jamie Gangel, Kit Maher, and Sean Lyngaas entitled “Trump’s national security adviser added a journalist to text chat on highly sensitive Yemen strike plans.” But with this involving the dolt in the White House, it’s not even shocking anymore.

Thus top members of the Dump administration sent detailed operational plans and other highly sensitive information about the Yemen strikes to a group thread on a messaging app to which a reporter had been accidentally added. The person at the center of this scandalous incident is The Atlantic editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg.

The least that the “gang that couldn’t shoot straight” administration could do was acknowledge the messages, sent over the nongovernment-encrypted chat app Signal, seem to be authentic without offering any explanation for why senior officials were discussing national defense information outside of approved classified government channels.

Because of this horrible lapse in common sense, multiple administration officials told CNN they were shocked, with at least two speculating that this could result in the dismissal of one of their colleagues.

It goes without saying, the use of this app, Signal, to discuss planning for military operations is a shocking risk to national security. Multiple officials said they could not recall any instance in which Signal was used to communicate classified information or discuss military operations.

One former senior intelligence official said, “They broke every procedure known to man about protecting operational material before a military strike.” He added, “You have a total breakdown in security about a military operation.”

The shit bag who is president right now talked as if he were in an Alzheimer’s daze when he was confronted with this possible breach in national security, actually fucking denying he knew anything about it [this is his fucking modus operandi for 78 years!]. He said, “I don’t know anything about it. I’m not a big fan of The Atlantic [because it has been overwhelmingly critical of him in article after article]. It’s, to me, it’s a magazine that’s going out of business [here he is denying, deflecting, and talking trash about a news magazine]. I think it’s not much of a magazine [even though it’s been in business since the early 1800s – what a fucking shit! Excuse my French here] But I know nothing about it [what the fuck does he know anything about?].

I truly hope this new outrage will rally Democrats to demand these compromising actions to stop immediately and hold hearings on the subject and to inform the American people how careless the current administration is with regard to these security concerns. They should tell Americans in no uncertain terms that America is far unsafe under this current incompetent administration.

Oh, and the person who was mercilessly attacked for her supposedly insecure emails, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, had this to say over this stunning bombshell. Taking to X today, Clinton posted, “You have got to be kidding me.”

As recently as 2023, the shit stain known as Dump attacked Clinton still, saying, “Hillary Clinton broke the law, and she didn’t get indicted” because “the FBI and Justice Department protected her.” Even former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg similarly posted, “From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.”

The Democrats should insist that the new totally unqualified Secretary of Defense, drunkard Pete Hegseth, be terminated immediately.

Yesterday, I wrote that Elliot and I began watching Netflix’s new series Adolescence. Today we watched episode 2 and it didn’t disappoint. In this episode, the two detectives, DI Luke Bascombe, and his female counterpart, DS Misha Frank, go into the school where the suspected murderer of a female classmate was a student, seeking answers as to his motive for killing the young woman. There they meet surly middle schoolers cursing and just acting sassy and crazy. Finally, Bascombe has to hear what really motivated young Jamie Miller from his own son who is a student there. The detective and his partner had it all wrong about Jamie and the female student, Katie Leonard. They assumed she liked him, but Bascombe’s son, Adam, steers him to the uncomfortable truth of what really happened: it appears that Leonard was calling Jamie an “incel” and was bullying him online. I mentioned this in yesterday’s blog. To me, it’s shocking, even, to suggest that 13-year-olds are having sex at this age, but today, girls and boys shockingly mature at much younger ages. I thoroughly enjoyed the use of one-shot filming in both episodes; the episodes are filmed in one tracking shot. There is no editing or any editing that I can see.

In this episode, you get to hear a little more about Bascombe’s past and his reluctance to being a father. His partner, Misha, also reveals her desire not to bear children. Hell, after seeing how these adolescents behave in a secondary school, it’s no wonder that Frank would not want children. The ending of this episode was quite touching: Bascombe picks up his son Adam after school and suggests they have lunch together. Adam gets into his dad’s car and they drive off.

The father of young Jamie, Stephen Graham, is the cocreator of the series, along with Jack Thorne. Without question, I strongly recommend everyone watch this series, especially those with school-age children or, even, grandchildren. As parents, it becomes increasingly difficult to know what your child is doing behind closed doors in the dark. This cautionary series attempts to fill you in on what is actually going down in that setting. The series has only four episodes, about an hour long. It’s a totally gripping, unsettling story of how our children can be so easily radicalized on the internet by misanthropic and misogynistic influencers. In this episode, the principal of the school, I believe, even mentions Andrew Tate’s name – the influencer I mentioned in yesterday’s blog.

And so it went!
