I think that Pickled Pete refers to himself as the "Secretary of War". It's much more real than the "Secretary of Defense". I think "Secretary of Death" would be better, but that really fails in the focus groups I imagine.

Line between truth and satire has become unrecognizable. I am pretty sure this is a parody of Pistol Pete, but there's a small chance this was an actual encounter.

Welcome to trump's America.

Thanks for the morning chuckle. We gotta take them where we find them.

Excellent parody. Whisky Pete's dismissal of the six casualties exposed his lack of humanity--once again. Most alarming is the news that commanders in all our branches of service are framing this war to the troops as God's plan for the apocalypse. Most than 100's complaints yesterday morning. These Christian nationalists could sink the USA into a a society as frightening as what GB and the US did in 1979 to Iran.

Oh my goodness, this is funny -- someone please send it to Piccolo Pete!

If it didn't sound so close to True, I'd laugh myself off my chair...

Every time I see this clown strutting for the cameras like some adolescent Mussolini, I feel like I'm watching Homelander from "The Boys" in his civvies rather than the star spangled tights. This entire benighted regime, from top to bottom, is right out of some Marvel Comics show were every evil scumbag in the universe is recruited to take over the world.

Will we ever wake up from this nightmare, or are they gonna drag us straight into Hell?
