What a beautiful thing. TMZ is how these people deserve to get covered. Not with the weepy piety of hill reporters who all have politicians in their profile pictures but sicko, unhinged papparazzi who believe in nothing.
Baier: Kristi Noem is asking for privacy and prayers tonight. She is said to be devastated by reports alleging her husband has been leading a cross-dressing double life.

NATO members are obliged to support one another if attacked, not to join wars of choice. That stipulation was made at the demand of the US, which also insisted that the commitment be territorially limited.
“The treaty does not cover the entire world,” said Dean Acheson. “It applies only to the North Atlantic area.”
He made clear that this had been the key American condition. “We deliberately avoided any implication that we were undertaking a global military commitment.”
The Senate, worried about being dragged into European colonial wars, had threatened to refuse ratification unless the limitations were explicit.
As John Foster Dulles put it: “If it were made global in scope, it would not be acceptable to the United States.”
Despite all this, the only time that NATO has gone to war was indeed out of area, at the request of the US after 9/11.
Nearly a trillion dollars every year goes to the military. Most of it disappears into the pockets of defense contractors, who deliver half-baked technology that puts our military personnel in danger. We should call it what it is.
The world's most prolific grift machine.
EXCLUSIVE - Hegseth said today that “family after family” of the service members killed in the Iran war told him: “Finish this. Honor their sacrifice. Do not waver. Do not stop until the job is done.”
But a father who met with Hegseth tells @Petereporter he never said that
Hegseth: "My 13 year old son popped into my office last night while I was editing these remarks. He asked about the war and the families I met at Dover. I looked at him and said, 'They died for you, son. So your generation doesn't have to deal with a nuclear Iran.'"
If you're a young U.S. soldier I hope you're paying attention to what they did to Joe Kent today. You can fight their wars for decades. You can lose friends or even your wife in the desert. But the minute you say "Hey I don't wanna fight for Israel anymore" they will destroy you.
