Department of peace sounds even better than defense.

They are pacifiers. Kills everything until it’s pacified.

No it doesn’t, it sounds like newspeak.

Departament of defense sounds like a newspeak for a country that was not in any danger of being invaded for a century or more and all the wars abroad it participated in, it entered pretty much by choice. Department of war is way more accurate.

I'm pretty sure they're being sarcastic

This is such a foot stomping childish thing to get caught up on. It does not at all matter what a dept is called. Try to get over the extremely superficial.

On the other hand, the parent post is entirely correct.

What, I ask, is the point of having laws and rules if you can just ignore the ones you don't like?

Its just a name, who cares?

Not me.

…but, if you break the law, you break the law. Not maybe maybe who cares, its not me being water boarded, I dont care…

If you break the law. You break the law.

Otherwise, who gives a duck what congress says?

Just fire them all and crown Trump King of America.

I’m being facetious. …but maybe its more of a big deal than you superficially pretend it is.

It’s just another case of the administration blatantly breaking the rules.

…so, you know. If youre ok with no laws or rules, I guess its fine.

Seems a bit chaotic to me. I prefer my governing body to be… marginally bound by some kind of responsibilty to something or someone.
