Are you kidding me with this shit, @washingtonpost.com?

Top of the website headline, multiple stories, an editorial board piece and SIX goddamn columnists all had to weigh in about this?

Good for Kevin! WaPo's fixation on the pardon was biased as hell!

Anyone who says this was a bad idea, just respond with “well, that just makes him eligible to be an ambassador to a foreign country “…

And leave it at that.

For ALL the hand wringing, fuck that. And those “dems are concerned “, fuck that too. We are about to be in a world of hurt, I spent 20 years in the AF, and another 20 as a civil servant; any motherfucker in a red hat tries to thank me for my service, my response will be “eat a bad of dicks, fucking traitor”

I get emails from them constantly asking me to sign back up for $2/month after dropping it the day they didn't endorse VP Harris. Off to the trash they go.
