Pete Hegseth Argues Women Shouldn't Be In Military Combat Roles

“I’m straight-up just saying we should not have women in combat roles. It hasn’t made us more effective, it hasn’t made us more lethal, it has made fighting more complicated,” Hegseth told the “Shawn Ryan Show” while promoting his book, “The War on Warriors.”

Europe’s richest man Bernard Arnault is suing X owner Elon Musk

Fortune reports that Arnault’s Les Echos and Le Parisien newspapers are seeking compensation due to them under French law, which regulates social media companies more strictly than the U.S. does and which compels platforms to pay for content republished from the media. Arnault’s papers are joined in this action by the newspapers Le Monde Le Figaro and the Agence France-Presse news agency.

16. "How do I feel? Like America finally cannot ignore its wretched underbelly anymore. No more hand-waving about how minorities and women are treated. No more making uninformed decisions and somehow not having consequences due to privilege. No more scapegoats being lined up for slaughter. This is the USA. This is us."

Why? There is nowhere in the Bible where it says one race rules over all."
"God accepts every race, nationality, and ethnicity and everyone who is willing and open to listen to him. God is love. But you all take God, Jesus's name, and you spew hate and pain on everyone else who isn't white. I don't understand. It is exhausting to live in a country that hates me for being a Black woman. You hate me for literally existing, and I just want to understand why."

15. "In all honesty, it's not completely surprising the way things turned out. But at the same time, I still had a bit of faith that people would do what is best for the people. I just want to ask Trump voters, MAGA, all of you, why do you hate me? I have done nothing to you but try to live my life according to God's will and plan for me. But I have been hunted by the KKK at my university, and now my people are receiving text messages about showing up to plantation fields to pick cotton.

14. "Disappointed, but not surprised, unfortunately. As a Black person, you have to be perfect, and it's still not good enough. There are people who would rather watch the country burn than have it run by a woman, especially a Black woman."

13. "The majority of the nation spoke loud and clear on Election Day. They will elect anyone before they elect a Black woman for president."

Yet, somehow, I thought because a man named Barack Obama had spent eight years in the White House, that maybe people would not have a hang-up about a biracial woman becoming commander in chief. I should have known better. It is now clear that a racist piece of filth was preferable to many Democratic voters."

12. "I am a Black American woman who is also a Gen X'er. How do I feel about Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential loss to Donald Trump? Stupid. But not because I feel tricked or deceived by the media or any voting block. I feel stupid for forgetting that in this country, Black women are hated, loathed, and reviled.

11. "I'm very disappointed by the results of the election. I would like to see another minority president in my lifetime. I would also like to see a female president in my lifetime. I don't know if that will ever happen now. I work in education, so I am dreading anything happening to the Department of Education. I am also worried for seniors in this country, as ending healthcare is on Trump's agenda."

"This is solely on the people who saw an educated, tenured, experienced, and professional Black/Asian woman and an old white man with a criminal history and the decency of a carnival hustler who incited an insurrection on our nation's Capitol by denying the outcome of the 2020 election while espousing Christian values, morality, God, and country."

9. "I think Black Americans need to 100% turn to developing our own Project 2025 instead of being reactionary and focused on somebody else's plan. Anytime you don't have a plan of your own, you will fall victim to somebody else who does have a plan."

—Anonymous

For sure, I'm naive, but still, I can't wrap my head over the fact that American BIPOCs voted for a guy who has a history of racism and is a sexual predator who also represents other white supremacists. How can you be a person of color and ignore or don't give a fuck about this?"

—antoinette yoo

8. "My first thought is that this is a perfect example of how Black women have to work twice as hard, be professional, can be fully qualified, and play by the rules and still lose because a white guy can act like a total fuck-up, do the bare minimum, and yet still win. I'm particularly disgusted by all Americans of color who voted for this orange piece of shit.
