    >“The notion that a flu vaccine must be mandatory for every service member, everywhere, in every circumstance at all times is just overly broad and not rational,” Hegseth said in a video posted on social media.

    >He said American service members are free to get the flu vaccine but will not be forced to “because your body, your faith and your convictions are not negotiable.”

    Gee, Kegsbreath, would have been nice if you could have extended that to folks who made the mistake of serving while being a minority you didn’t like instead of imbecilic would-be plaguebearers!

    I want to lock every utterly fucking worthless adherent to this anti-culture out of power for the rest of my life. The rightoids have been nothing but a ball and chain around the ankle of this country for long before my birth. They aren’t the source of *all* of its problems, but fucking *Christ*…

  2. Enemies of the US will be able to conduct biological warfare by coughing on doorknobs.

  3. You know what? At this point, good. Anything that slows or ruins combat readiness is a plus in this administration and this war. If a bunch of redneck fucks on a boat out at sea want pass a nasty bug along, fine. Most of them voted for this shit, they can stew in it.

    Weak ass ″warriors″ can’t fuck with needles.

  4. Man it’s gonna be fun for soldiers passing around the flu a few hundred times a year because a large enough minority didn’t get a vaccine and now reduces military readiness.

    It’s crazy how much the US has just self inflicted so many of its injuries.

  5. This is actually a case where “history and tradition” is directly at odds with this administration’s choices, given George Washington’s variolation against smallpox in the American revolutionary war
