Food for thought, in addition to the constant litany of litigation threats and attempts to "open up the libel laws"....while we consider whether or not the fascist in chief is attempting to control media narratives. Seb Gorka is being floated to head VOA. If that's not right on the nose, it's difficult to imagine what would be. In the private sector, herr dumpsterfire is publicly fueding with fox news...for being insufficiently loyal.
The Trump admin absolutely is getting away with their bullshit, and our corporatist media are willingly complicit for any number of reasons that range from the mildly annoying to downright absurd.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
