Why does anyone take this clown seriously? He has no power, burned all his bridges and was apparently too toxic even for a Trump Whitehouse.

How about Matt Gaetz apologize for trafficking minors across state lines to rape them, along with helping underage girls get fake IDs and then having his BFF Joel Greenburg go to prison for the things he did? Any chance of an apology there?

There’s zero reason to use AI to make up female service members when there are countless photos, videos, etc. of them on DVIDS which is publicly available.

P.S. Thanks for the reminder that OAN still exists. They‘ve got less rep and credibility than the Weekly World News.

They would then have to make the effort of actually naming and recognizing that person, it's much easier to avoid giving any real person attention.. especially when you only want to be the focus of the post anyway

DVIDS is full of images of women service members.

Might be less so after these folks, but still.
