WASHINGTON, Aug 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. Navy on Monday became the third branch of the military to no longer have a Senate-confirmed leader for the first time in history, as a Republican senator continues to block military nominations.

Retiring Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Mike Gilday gave up command on Monday. The Navy, Army and Marine Corps are now all without a confirmed leader.

You can kill foreign children, but not your red-blooded American fetuses.

    Even American children, if they’re not the right color or their parents aren’t from the “correct” end of the political spectrum. But so help me, if you so much as think of touching a good old free-range, pasture-fed American fetus, I will fucking end you.
