Pentagon official says a 'red, white and blue dome' secures Strait of Hormuz

Linda James18

He & his boss really think they can bullshit their way out of the mess they created.

Sandi12

I can't understand why they think their babbling, gibberish is impressing ANYONE. Only a portion of their base still listens to the crap and believes it.

Mark McCondach11

A delusional stock character from a really bad 1980s action movie. A complete (but dangerous) joke.

“Guys! Haven’t I found a great solution for the problem I created myself?”

jacqualine115.bsky.social8

Do they truly think that this sounds powerful? It quite literally sounds like parody. Jost said these exact words on Saturday right?

Frances Gandy Walsh6

We don't want your dome of color, it means nothing, while Americans at home are suffering from high cost, food insecurity, and high damn cost for Medical Care, and losing their home.

WTF is he jabbering about???

Jaded_In_Montana🐸4

Does he believe the shit he is spewing?

David King4

He thinks he is starring in a disaster movie!!!

The "red, white and blue" thing is so cringe too. It's a really common flag colour combo guys. France and the UK, for example.

Kiwi Medic 🏥 🇧🇷4

This prick is a lying facist scumbag.

The chicken lady4

I can imagine some ayatollah itching to crash a drone on his dumb head right there on camera

Spancialosaphus Lacrimosae4

What’s the odds on Smegseth thinking there is actually a dome over the SoH? 🤭🤭

Andria Gaskin4

He’s the dumbest clown in Trump’s circus.

Mel3

Read the second paragraph again. He’s correct, just not in the way he thinks he is. If it wasn’t for the US, the Strait of Hormuz would be open, oil would be under $60 a barrel …….

Diamond Life3

Where are the competent DEI people that they fired? We need them back because this is not going well at all. And neither is Venezuela, no matter how many times Trump repeats it.

Down the Spiral3

A "red, white, and blue dome"?

Moi2

I think you call people like Hegseth a "low functioning alcoholic".

zolenkan 🇪🇺🌱📷📎2

well, maybe the lack of fossil fuels helps against the climate crisis. wish it could help phase out the use of that disastrous energy source alltogether.

EASTMAN2

As a Christian Nationalist, Pete Hegseth is led by his “faith” to kill as many people as he can on the other side of the world. Plus, it comes with the bonus of keeping his job. The lives of the men and women in our military are meaningless to both him and Trump.

Resistance is persistence!2

Kegbreath is a useless turd!

US OUT of Middle East !!!!

2 only got through yesterday, so it will take 3 months to just unwind the current bottleneck...Great strategy!

Right before the markets open. Like clockwork.

Pretty sure they want Iran to blow some boats out of the water to save their little war farce so good luck to anyone dumb enough to try to get through the strait

DistrictofAlex6

Newspapers must be excited to continue printing the administration’s egregious lies

wombative.bsky.social4

In what direction? I can believe that there are a bunch of ships desperate to get out. Is anyone actually crazy enough to be sailing into the gulf?

Maya’s Mom3

If everyone drove EVs there would be little need for the dirty oil. The Middle East would become irrelevant in that regard.

Chris⚖️Justice7

👉 Iran has always said the US blockade is a breach of the ceasefire agreement. This regime acts clueless & lies

They Say4

Americans should be outraged that Pete Hegseth refuses to answer questions without reframing them as lies, trick questions or hypotheticals. The refusal of Republicans to acknowledge Joe Biden's 2020 election victory should immediately disqualify them from holding public office. This is dangerous.

harolddersh.bsky.social3

This asshole needs to go!

Fran W2

Firing weapons at one another is the cessation of a ceasefire. 🤦🏼‍♂️🤷 US Media is a disgrace that they don’t call out the blatant lies of the US administration.

Cling2Reality12

These guys and their bullshit 🙄

Robin12

Got it - he's starting a new war so he can put off seeking Congressional approval for another 2 months.

GonzoWookie10

You could fill the oceans with the amount of bullshit these guys shovel.

raittafan.bsky.social9

So he doesn’t have to get authorization? Cute!

sadcat7.bsky.social9

So now we are in two distinct wars in the same place?

They don't have the skills to juggle one ball now they want to juggle two.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN VIEWS3

Nothing yet, Pete. source: marinetraffic.com

Gee, clock stops at a cease fire against Iran; then rebrand the straits still Iran but congress doesn’t need to give approval since I guess it is on water and not land? Since when does a cease fire stop the clock on a war? 🤯

GGL3

Ah. So no 60 day war bump.

WaterBluSky 🇺🇸 🌻 🇺🇦3

Is it me, or does Ranger Pete’s suit look even more ridiculous today? The shoulder pads seem to be growing.

J. Crallo3

Someone should tell the drunk domestic abuser that it doesn’t work that way, no matter how much they think it does.

Ben Cook2

I can’t stop hearing Bobby Finn saying “it’s because it’s not the same, that’s why” when Hegseth tries to talk seriously.

Caroline in the Woods2

The SNL just writes itself

Quiet, piggy2

Oh you mean the way things were before you started this idiotic whatever you want to call it? We'll go back to the way things were before and declare it as a victory? Classic Trump. Create a problem, back away from it, and then declare a victory.
