Is confirming Peter Hegseth as Secretary of Defense the insanest thing that Congress has ever done?

Asked by Jeruba (56161points) 1 day ago

If not, what more is out there?

And how do you think this choice will look to us a year from now?

Legalizing, horse meat, and declaring pizza a health food is up near the top.

Impeaching Trump, but choosing not to remove him from office is more egregious.

How about the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which resulted in the trail of tears and the genocide of native americans?

Is this a serious question? It would be difficult to find an act of congress that was not “insane”.

? McConnell opposed Hegsweth’s nomination. It was surprising but I’m glad he did.
I don’t know what “too soon” means.

Worse things will come from the Trump empire for the USA. He has his J6th armed militia for his private purposes.

Not convicting Trump on his second impeachment was much crazier, guano speaking.
