False positives are kinda high with polygraphs. Due to unreliability of results US courts don’t accept them as evidence. That doesn’t stop a boss on a power trip from firing you.
One of the rare joys of this administration has been seeing them so incompetently mismanage the US military.
Right? Fuck them, we’ve funded horrendous shit because of them so have at it.
“Assessments of polygraphy by scientific and government bodies generally suggest that polygraphs are highly inaccurate, may easily be defeated by countermeasures, and are an imperfect or invalid means of assessing truthfulness.”
But not this government, I guess. Hold my beer!
Don’t tell a polygrapher this. They’ll waste your time for 12 hours because you’ve essentially proven their job is worthless, and they’ll make that time well spent reminding you of the fact.
Tell the polygrapher that, then waste their time anyway lol, have fun with it, lie and tell convoluted stories. Recite the Silmarilion, or what you think the Silmarilion is

“I have never witnessed more inept management of the brave men and women who serve our country,” Senator Thom Tillis, Republican of North Carolina and a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, wrote in a social media post this week, calling on Mr. Trump to replace Mr. Hegseth.
…
Mr. Tillis was among the senators who voted to confirm Mr. Hegseth for the role in early 2025, despite having voiced concerns about his nomination.
Susan Collins ass response
Didn’t his appointment come down to a tie break as well? So that one vote might have avoided (some) of the shitshow that came after?
