U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has uses a D-Day anniversary speech in France to link immigration by sea to wartime liberation.
PARIS (AP) — U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth used a D-Day anniversary speech on Saturday to appear to link immigration by sea to the wartime liberation of Europe, warning that the freedom won by Allied troops could prove temporary if leaders failed to defend it.
Hegseth, speaking at the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer in northwestern France during commemorations for the 82nd anniversary of the June 6, 1944, landings, said that today, “different European beaches are stormed by different dangerous ideologies.”
“Beaches in Spain and Italy and Greece and Bulgaria. Boats and men arrive,” he said.
“When will European capitals do something about that invasion? Or is it too late?” he added. “I pray not, and I believe not.”
Hegseth did not use the word immigration, but his remarks echoed broader Trump administration criticism of Europe over migration, borders and what U.S. officials have described as censorship of nationalist and far-right voices.
On Saturday, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s office condemned U.S. Vice President JD Vance for blaming immigration for the killing of Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old British student stabbed to death in Southampton, even though both Nowak and his killer were British.
In December, the Trump administration’s national security strategy warned that Europe faced the “prospect of civilizational erasure” and could become “unrecognizable” within 20 years.
Does Hegseth realize he was arguing white nationalist, neofascist talking points?
At the Normandy American Cemetery?
At a ceremony commemorating the 82nd anniversary of D-Day?
When over 10,000 Allied troops were killed, injured or MIA during the invasion in Normandy, which changed the course of the war against the fascist Axis nations?
why did you people come up with russian names for what is supposed to be a movie set in italy. what was the thought process here. why does she sound like she walked out of a tolstoy novel
The funniest part of A New Hope is that Luke Skywalker is a 19 year old who has not locked in yet and plays with toys and sleeps in his childhood bedroom at his aunt and uncle’s house and Leia Organa is a 19 year old with a mission to save the galaxy from fascism. Luke has never left his hometown, Leia just watched her planet be blown up. He’s peeved his uncle is asking him to do his chores, she’s imprisoned for resisting the government. You relate to them both but they’re on complete opposite sides of the 19 year old life stage spectrum.
Yes! Some people have misinterpreted this as me insinuating Luke is a wimp but he’s just in a very transitional life phase that is focused on growing and maturing. His friends are growing up and moving on, he’s anxious to join them but isn’t quite ready. He has ambition and goals but he just isn’t in a place where he is able to pursue those goals, he is immature and that isn’t a bad thing. 19 year olds SHOULD be able to ponder their place in the world and which direction they want their life to take. Leia has been in the public eye her entire life, she is a princess, she has been primed for greatness and she has been shouldered with so much responsibility. Luke is just his aunt and uncle’s nephew, they love him and don’t want him to leave, he’s trying to decide what to do.
He’s like a Midwest farm boy who is dreaming of the big city and she is like an old money New England heiress who has been told since birth she will follow her father’s career path into politics and has been sent to the most competitive schools and enrolled in the most rigorous extracurriculars.
In most writers' hands, Luke would be the hard-nosed outdoorsman who's already experienced so much and Leia would be the wide-eyed idealist who's never tasted the real world and needs Luke to navigate it for her.
It's a breath of fresh air that that wasn't the case.

I had a friend whose spine never fully ossified because she started gymnastics at like 2 or 3. She went into dance and could touch the back of her head to the back of her knee.
She had knee surgery by the age of 16, ending any potential dance career due to an injury from cheerleading (which she never really wanted to do but was pressured into).
People spend their entire lives with complications from football injuries from grade school, including anger and impulse control problems from head injuries.
This isn't about keeping kids from doing harm to their bodies.

yeah gotta be honest every time i think about how the dome of the rock was literally built on top of the holiest site to judaism and that jews are actually literally banned from going there i wonder how the jewish people haven’t set the world on fire with justifiable rage
and not only that but the people whose religious structure now sits on top of the temple mount have historically fear mongered about jews supposedly plotting to take over the site and used these misinformation campaigns to justify violence against jews — the hebron massacre for example — and yet the jewish community is expected to not be pissed about any of this
also i should be used to this by now but i think it’s wild how every fucking time i make a post like this validating jewish pain i IMMEDIATELY lose followers. some of y’all just plain disgust me.
Blogging about Israel and the Arab world since, oh, forever.
Also, what prompted the Second Intifada (on paper), was that a Jewish politician went to visit the Temple Mount after the Jerusalem Islamic Waqf illegally excavated and dumped over 10 dump-trucks' worth of priceless artifacts within the Temple Mount.
And they slaughtered thousands of our civilians for it.
“A new sense may actually be dawning that only a mass movement against Israeli apartheid (similar to South Africa’s) will work.”
Fuck this article, but the headline spot on.
A Jewish man merely visiting the holiest place in the entire Jewish religion, that Jews aren't allowed to go near to "respect" the religion that built over it, and that alone prompted slaughtering thousands of our civilians.
20 years after the fact, what attacks did Israel face?
And people try to, "Well... both sides" it.
"Wellllll, a Jewish politician visiting the Al-Aqsa Mosque made Muslims scared that they'd make changes to it, so you can understand why--"
a) Like when they "made changes" to our holiest site in the world by destroying and dumping tens of tonnes of our holiest artifacts??
b) A Jew visiting a Mosque shouldn't prompt slaughtering thousands of Jews.
I shouldn't have to say that.
And don't, "Well, apartheid--" me:
This was just after the Camp David Summit.
Just after the Israeli government agreed to all of Yassir Araf's demands for Palestinian statehood and then some: All of Gaza, 96% of the West Bank, East Jerusalem as the capitol, plus full monetary reparations for those displaced in 1948 War that they started.
And Arafat responded by not just rejecting statehood, but his Waqf by vandalizing and destroying ten dump-trucks worth of the holiest Jewish artifacts from the holiest Jewish place in the world.
And Jews were (and are) expected to be completely fine with it.
"They destroyed literally tonnes of our holiest artifacts, but we visited their mosque, so it's really all the same."
"They stabbed, shot, and blew up thousands of our civilians across a bloody summer, but one of our guys visited their mosque, so tit-for-tat."
Fuck that.
-
If you disagree with me about any of this, that's fine.
I don't care.
I just wanted to draw attention to that one extra detail.
It's also important to point out that this act of vandalism destroyed historical evidence of our history in Israel.
See, the Waqf's illegal excavation of the Temple Mount has a part two: The Temple Mount Sifting Project. We know where all the rubble was dumped, and this organization, with the help of hundreds of thousands of volunteers, has spent decades sifting through it for all the priceless archeological treasures.
But one of the most important elements of an archeological find, perhaps the most important element, is the context. Not only where it was found, but how deep. What was above it? What was it above?
And all of that context was permanently, irrevocably destroyed. If a 3000 year old shard is found, we have to ask: has it been there for three thousand years? Or could it have spent two thousand years elsewhere before being moved?
If the Temple Mount hadn't been desecrated, we'd find that shard in a layer of debris that would prove how long it had been there. But as is, we can't be totally certain. We can't prove it.
I've volunteered with the sifting project twice. The first time, I found a piece of Herodian tile--that is, the specific type of tile that he used in all his major building projects, which we also see at Masada.
I held in my hands corroboration of the contemporary account of Herod renovating the Temple and adding the retaining walls and plaza that are still standing today, the structure the Dome of the Rock was built on.
But that evidence, and every other piece of evidence the project finds, has, and always will have, an asterisk.
A bit of room for doubt that will always be there, because the religious authority descended from the conquerors of the land deliberately destroyed the evidence of the cultural history that predated their presence.
And yet, somehow, we are the real imperialist colonizers, and our presence is the real desecration.
Look, I'm going to be real with you. We have the threat of nuclear war looming over our heads, conservatives are in the White House, unemployment is rife, Russia is bogged down in a brutal multi-year invasion of its neighbour, Middle East crises are dominating the news, and everyone's arguing about gender norms and the collapse of Western civilisation.
I saw a post about r/waifuism on my dash and commented on it but im gonna say it here...their one f/o rule is so bullshit...the way they treat having more than one "waifu" as cheating is kinda insane. These ppl wouldn't survive the selfship/yumeship community on tumblr...they'd see my f/o list with like 30 f/os and explode lol.
yeah, they treat having a waifu/husbando like actual marriage and they think having more than one f/o is like cheating (apparently these people have never heard of polyamory)
...you ever hear about something that exists on the internet, something you weren't anywhere near in the first place.
And then mentally commit to moving EVEN FURTHER AWAY?!
I think if I see one more tiktok where people are bitching about fanfics not having a "minimum word count" I am she hurling myself out the fucking window.
your fic isnt an essay. youre not in class, you do not need to hit some imaginary word count to make other people happy. It is their snobbish failiure that they think that longer fics are better. your story deserves to be told; regardless of its its 1000 or 10,000 words
people are getting more and more demanding and spoilt of fanfic writers, youre fine to not beta read or have a beta reader. youre fine to write the really niche fic nobody else seems to care about. youre fine to have a teeny tiny fic. youre fine to have typos, or out of character writing, or headcanons show through, or whatever
i also find these minimum count things so unmotivating as a disabled writer. i have brain damage!! writing fic takes a lot of energy!! so fuck you if its short, im proud!! everyone should have that mindset, even if youre not disabled. you wrote it, be proud you wrote it. you dont have to be proud over the work itself if youre not, but you should be proud you put words to screen and posted it. it takes effort and courage and time, you deserve to feel good about it - algae
