15 Terms

30 years in Congress and Genette managed to be Chief Deputy Whip, a somewhat fake job. Never a committee Chair.Maybe she didn’t want to be, which is fine! I don’t think everyone does or should want to have real leadership positions.But plenty of them do stand in line for decades to the Dem official and official deference to seniority.Exceptions, of course, but for various reasons, after 30 years of waiting you don't necessarily have the juice once you do get the gavel. And maybe you lose before you get it.Again, maybe this isn't her story, but it is for many .

Pentagon Pete’s Purge Chaos Spirals With Top General’s Shock Exit

Kevin Lamarque / REUTERSDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth just claimed another scalp in his paranoid purge of the Pentagon’s top brass. Four-star General Chris “C.D.” Donahue, 56, who, as the Army’s chief official in Europe and Africa, has been instrumental in helping Ukraine repel Russia’s invasion, has filed to retire and will leave his post within days. Donahue, a special forces veteran who was famously the very last service member to depart Afghanistan during the U.S. withdrawal under Joe Biden, had once been tipped to run the entire Army but is now one of the most senior names on a lengthening list of officers shown the door under Hegseth, as The Atlantic first reported.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Pentagon Hawk Steps Down Ahead of NATO Summit Raises Questions About Future Direction

Sharp personnel changes within NATO's military command structure in Europe signal that the alliance is unlikely to undertake any major offensive moves near Russia's borders. Another Pentagon Hawk Resigns Secretary of War Pete Hegseth secured the resignation of General Christopher Donahue, commander of US Army forces in Europe and Africa. The dismissal was fully coordinated with President Donald Trump. The first reason is obvious. Hegseth is operating within the strict framework of the White House's election platform — forcing European countries to pay for their own defense while removing American hawkish” generals from key positions. Twenty-four such generals have already been dismissed, with the latest being General Randy George, who stepped down as Chief of Staff of the Army.
