And that’s basically it!
And nazi, he speaks nazi too. That sieg heil in the photo didn't happen by coincidence.
It's an accurate snapshot of the American executive branch right now... the moron MAGA President asleep at the wheel, the moron MAGA underlings putting on full display their idiotic rendition of fascism.
Whilst spending untold billions on military gear for ice to violate our constitutional rights.
Sabes cómo se llama uno que habla tres idiomas? Trilingüe.
Sabes cómo se llama uno que habla dos? Bilingüe.
Sabes como se llama uno que habla un sólo idioma? Americano. Se llama americano.
This fucking moron made himself the punchline of the joke that we invented to mock those like him.
As an American, I laughed.
Then I cried some more.
I wonder what his mom thinks of him turning into such a huge douchey asshole.
Is she surprised, or did she see it coming? Maybe he's always been so. He's the kid who made new rules for games and cried when the other kids wouldn't follow his rules.
“You are an abuser of women – that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego,” Penelope Hegseth wrote in the email obtained by the New York Times.
“You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth,” she added, advising her son to “get some help and take an honest look at yourself”.
On the one hand, that reads like a lot of messages written by abusive parents to (mostly) blameless children. On the other, this one is directed at Pete Hegseth.
Hegseth's father was a basketball coach for high schools across Minnesota before retiring in 2019; his mother is an executive business coach who has taught with the Minnesota Excellence in Public Service (MEPS) Series, a fellowship and leadership program for Republican and center-right women.
She'd probably say "You've always been a disappointment to this family. You should've gone to war with Iran last year."
So Simplified English instead of Traditional English, right?
Honestly, the way they're speaking. I'm fine with them calling it "american".
It gives the rest of us a heads up that we should use small words so they can understand.
Literally the Colbert Effect in action.
This guy wants to be the parody of an idiot.
He just wants to appeal to the collection of people who do like that sort of thing being said.
I remember an incident a bit back where the White House Press Secretary said "your mom" to a journalist's question, followed up by Trump's communications director saying the same thing. Those are not people who are going to let that idly slip, much less at the same time
their full-time job is using speech to politically influence people.
Trump announced Thursday that he will soon meet with Putin in Budapest, Hungary, to discuss an end to the war in Ukraine. The choice has raised questions, because Putin is wanted by the International Criminal Court. However, Hungary appears unlikely to cooperate with the warrant and is in the process of leaving the court, the Associated Press reports.
When HuffPost asked the White House who chose the location for the meeting, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt replied, “Your mom did.” White House Communications Director Steven Cheung also followed up with, “Your mom,” the outlet reports.
Colbert was the funniest conservative comedian but I stopped liking him after he switched parties.
I’m not sure if this is a joke or if you actually think he was a conservative on the Colbert show
Edit: oh wait it’s you, you got me
He probably wanted to say "English (simplified)"
We have the dumbest leaders ever," one person commented. "What a weird thing to be proud of," a second person added"
this is some concise journalism. they didnt bother to even note if the people they were quoting were posting on twitter or a facebook thread in any way. just said "some dude said this".
the irish star is a dirt rag tabloid, this isnt a source worth posting. surely other platforms are reporting on this
"I only speak one language"... to a room full of mostly bilingual people who also live in (central or south) America. 🤦🤦🤦
A bullet in each of their brains would be too kind.
Add a cactus in each of their asses and we might be getting somewhere
Wait until he learns that English is a hybrid of Latin, French and German.
and Celtic, Greek, Dutch, Turkish, various Indian/South Asian languages and Arabic.
Not to mention the "French" and "German" you mention were actually Saxon and Norman which became those languages.
USA is special kind of stupid that this probably gets a huge cheering back home.
USA is a special kind of stupid, but a majority still oppose war with Iran and... you know... raping children, so Hegseth isn't too popular on the home front either.
imagine him thinking he has to speak LATIN in latin america. hes a mean drunk.
This is a nationalistic move. To remove the washington regime away from other english speaking countries and brand itself as something larger. It makes the washington regime seem entitled to landgrabs. It makes washingtonlings feel superior to other english speakers.
It is as stupid as nationalism is stupid, but nationalism is great for ruling people.
White nationalists are the weakest and most brittle snowflakes.
Once upon a time we had a deep state. We replaced it with a dumb state. D'OH
He only speaks War Crime.
What language were they speaking in England before they stole one from USA?
The literal dumbest people run everything.
They should then switch to spanish as their lingua franca for that meeting (brazillians could pull if off).
Or switch to esperanto.
We can always trust Drunk Pete to say something stupid in front of a camera.
