That's how Hegseth comes across.

If you feel comfortable having this inexperienced and incompetent fool in charge of our military, you are not paying attention.

Damn the Republican Senate for allowing Trump to infest our government with nothing but incompetent ass-kissers.

Pete Hegseth
What about firing this guy? No?

While Waltz committed the original sin of inviting the wrong dude to a sensitive group chat, it was Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth who most abused the thread. The demeanor in the chat of Hegseth, until recently a weekend cable news host, is one of insecurity; here’s a guy who wants to show off how many acronyms and proper nouns he knows. This leads him down a path, one that ends with him sharing specific operational details in advance of the attack outside a secure channel. Hegseth, along with other members of the administration, has been arguing that nothing in the chat was “classified information.” That is just as laughable as Waltz claiming that Goldberg digitally apparated himself into the chat. If specific attack plans ahead of an attack are not classified, then what is? This is not Hegseth’s first screwup, and it won’t be the last. The screwups will continue to be tolerated, too, because neither the White House nor the Senate Republicans who put their reputations on the line to confirm him are ready to acknowledge that their critics may have had a point. He’s not going anywhere.

Drop it, ges.

We’ve already moved on to the latest shiny outrage.

Haven’t you heard?

Insert x, y, or z.

On Monday we start back again at the beginning of the alphabet.

The zone has already been flooded and the shit has already buried the story of Pete Hegseth. Pete who??

In all honesty I am uncomfortable with this guy, always have been.

Bad culture.

Drinking. Whoring around. Upscale trailer trash. Mind you more of America is too. lol.

But then again I like lots of the other stuff happening both good and bad so I guess this is part of the package.

Think him and Tulsi trades secrets for vodka yet?

I hope so
