The Army released a report into the handling of sexual assault prevention at Fort Hood, TX, and it’s proof that the institution doesn’t care about anything besides protecting itself. We offer our thoughts and why we feel it underscores our previous point: don’t enlist. You can read the report in its entirety here: https://www.army.mil/e2/downloads/rv7/forthoodreview/2020-12-03_FHIRC_report_redacted.pdf?fbclid=IwAR0JrfDs8rT-Y7OYdtvsT7FM2JORabaPIctk2Y-b35Le5AXdz8ftFqCRQgs

We also talk about a recent claim by a former Israeli government official that there is a secret alien confederation and bases on Mars. Probably safe to doubt this one?
