Addressing the room full of the #US’ top #generals & #admirals, summoned from around the world w/o explanation last week, #Hegseth defended his #firings of #FlagOfficers, which include the top US general, a #Black man, & the #Navy's top admiral, a #woman.
He said the officers he relieved were part of a “broken culture”.
#Trump & #PeteHegseth #military address🤬🧵
#Hegseth promised sweeping changes to how #discrimination complaints are handled & how accusations of #wrongdoing [#WarCrimes, #rape, etc] are investigated at the #Pentagon, saying the current system has top brass walking on "egg shells."
"If the words I'm speaking today are making your hearts sink, then you should do the honorable thing & resign," Hegseth said.
"I know the overwhelming majority of you feel the opposite. These words make your hearts full."

Following the attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II, the U.S. government sent those of Japanese ancestry to internment camps in remote areas. Eighty years later, many see troubling echoes of that time. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/09/04/japan/wwii-japanese-americans-internment-history/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #wwii #japaneseamericans #internment #discrimination
BON le personnel de l'Eurostar est vraiment pas sympa ! Le contrôleur vient d'envoyer salement bouler un touriste perdu qui voulait un renseignement. Un autre m'a sèchement fait savoir que je devais mettre mon vélo à l'autre bout du train et plus vite que ça svp. Et maintenant ils refusent qu'un gars en fauteuil roulant s'installe à la place prévue parce que ça risque de retarder le départ. Dans l'immédiat je ne sais pas trop quoi faire, mais on peut signaler ça à qui ?

American neo-Nazis point to Trump’s rhetoric — his attacks on diversity initiatives, his hard-line stance on immigration and his invocation of "Western values” — as driving a surge in interest and recruitment. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/08/11/world/politics/american-nazis-aryan-freedom-network-trump/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #nazis #wwii #adolfhitler #holocaust #us #donaldtrump #trade #tariffs #republicans #hatespeech #discrimination #aryanfreedomnetwork #daltonhenrystout
WNBA Incidents Expose Misogyny in Sports Culture
As a coach, an uncle, and a son, I believe we must speak out against the normalization of misogyny. This is bigger than sports—it’s about the dignity and humanity of every woman.
Silence teaches the next generation that power means domination.

Federal housing officials spent years investigating cities from #Chicago to Memphis to Corpus Christi for putting industrial plants and unwanted facilities in poor, nonwhite neighborhoods.
Now, under Trump, the agency plans to drop the cases.
