Michael Cohen - Fog Can't Hide This [View all]

If you stand outside the West Wing today, you can practically feel the walls trembling from the sheer force of President Trump screaming at Pete Hegseth.
And not the normal “everyone is an idiot but me” shriek. I mean the special octave he reserves for when he’s caught — again — doing something illegal, immoral, catastrophic, or all three before lunch.

Because the Caribbean Double Tap fiasco isn’t just “bad press.” It’s not even “oh look, the president ordered something reckless again.” No. This one is a five-alarm, DEFCON-1, all-hands-on-deck political grease fire. And Hegseth, bless his Fox–Green-Beret–cosplayer heart, is now standing before the American people, the press, and every member of Congress watching this unfold in real time trying to sell the world on his newest lie: the fog of war.

Fog of war?

Buddy, this wasn’t Normandy. It wasn’t Fallujah. It wasn’t even the freaking Battle of San Jacinto. It was a speedboat in the Caribbean, and the only “fog” involved was whatever alcohol-induced brain fog led Pete Hegseth to give a verbal order that, according to multiple witnesses, boiled down to: “Kill everybody.”
