“Nothing but respect”? Obama said Romney was a felon who gave his employees cancer and would push the elderly off of cliffs. Biden said he would put black people back in chains.
Abdul Carter is an idiot. It don’t matter what political beliefs you believe in you don’t call out a teammate publicly for his beliefs.
Out of all people to talk.

This arrival is unique and more incredible than is reported. Let me explain…
This trip was planned earlier in the month, and I was invited to fly down with @PeteHegseth.
For security reasons, none of us had a clue it was for the arrival of the Ford.
Then POTUS pulled @SecWar onto Air Force One for the trip to China, and all the logistics changed. I no longer had a seat on the SECWAR plane.
I’ve been to a lot of “dog and pony” arrivals over the years, and without fail, some CEO or admiral or ambassador delays the damn thing.
The crew ends up slowing down or doing circles in the ocean to push the arrival back. Sometimes it’s just a few hours so the VIP can get his beauty sleep. Sometimes it’s days.
Often, after all that, the VIP doesn’t even show up. He sends some deputy to make the remarks.
And these delays are always dressed up with lies about mechanical failure or weather.
I was thinking of driving down anyway, and the SECWAR team welcomed it.
Then yesterday morning I drove over a massive nail, blew a tire, and had to cancel.
Immediately @RileyPodleski called and rattled off the reasons I needed to be there, including the 55 babies who would be on the pier waiting to see dad for the first time.
“I can’t get there first thing. Any chance it’s going to be delayed till noon?”
None.
But the crazy thing was the media team hadn’t even talked to Hegseth in days. They were still confident he wouldn’t push the arrival back a single minute.
Air Force One arrived late last night.
I’ve been on trips with Pete Hegseth. He doesn’t lounge. He doesn’t sleep. He works. And President Trump barely sleeps, so I can guarantee Hegseth is beat.
I also don’t know the travel arrangements from Andrews to Norfolk, but those transfers always take longer than expected.
Seems like a minor thing. Seems like something he could have easily pushed back a few hours to catch well-deserved sleep or slip home quickly to spend a few hours with his kids.
He refused.
And then his media team hammered me and other journalists to cover this incredible story.
What makes it even more incredible? Hegseth is Army. Yes, he absolutely knows how powerful homecomings after long deployments are. He knows how painful even an hour delay at a terminal can be.
But he doesn’t know the energy of thousands arriving home at once. Army soldiers get orders, and it can take days to get home, but they move through crowded terminals and airports. They have time to decompress.
Naval arrivals come after weeks of hard underway time in lonely seas. Time made longer and more painful by deferred maintenance and endless cleaning.
Naval arrivals are the most incredible feeling a person can experience.
On both sides. Personally, I’ve only been on the shoreside, when my wife returned from Iraq, but oh what a feeling.
And despite having the best excuse in the world, the most important summit of the year with our greatest adversary, Hegseth refused to rob these sailors of a single second of joy. He didn’t just show up. He arrived with enthusiasm and spirit.
Why?
Because he isn’t lying when he says the job isn’t about him. It’s about our warfighters.
The legacy media has gone out of their way to paint him as selfish and, after a minor fire and the Strait of Hormuz still closed, the carrier sailors as failures.
The truth is polar opposite.
To @PeteHegseth about each and every sailor who just completed the longest carrier deployment since the Vietnam War.
And it’s about forcing the media to report on his and @USNavyCNO words of congratulations for an excellent job.
And it’s about the sons and daughters and wives waiting on that pier.
Congratulations to the Ford Carrier Strike Group.
Bravo Zulu and welcome home sailors.

🚨 AWESOME! Sec. Marco Rubio says he'll be the FIRST person to endorse JD Vance if he runs for president in 2028
"JD is a very good friend of mine. If JD runs for president, I think he'd be a PHENOMENAL candidate."
"I've said publicly and I'll say it again, I'll be the FIRST person to sign up and support him! I think JD would do great." 🔥
Q: "Would you want to be a vice president?"
RUBIO: "I want to be the secretary state and I'll worry about the future in the future."
This could be the dream team! 👏🏻
Remember when the Biden Administration paused new LNG permitting in Jan 24?
And was fully reversed in January 2025 under a Trump Executive Order?
Good times.
