      ***From Rolling Stone’s Ryan Bort:***

      Pete Hegseth barely received enough votes to win confirmation as Donald Trump’s defense secretary. Three Republicans even bucked their own party’s president to oppose him. One of them, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), cited “accusations of financial mismanagement and problems with the workplace culture he fostered.” Another, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), said Hegseth had “failed to demonstrate” that he could manage “nearly 3 million military and civilian personnel, an annual budget of nearly $1 trillion.”

      It hasn’t taken long for Hegseth to prove them — along with every Senate Democrat and the countless others who warned about him taking over the Pentagon — right.

      If you didn’t want him or his boys around, shoulda voted Harris. But she and biden kill babies…/s

      What a shock that the unqualified Nazi is doing Nazi things and making massive errors. This country is a fucking joke.

      Whiskey Pete is a culture warrior and a hot head, not a real *warrior.* DoD needs rational minds running it, not a former talking Fox ‚entertainment‘ (remember, they said it wasn’t news) personality.

      „Fully agreed“

      A man involving his wife in military actions seems a very republican thing to do..

    14. ashleyree on

      Like I said, Fox knew he wasn’t ready to step up into the morning anchor job. Sorry Pete, it’s weekends for you till you demonstrate adult leadership skills.

      WhiskyLeaks! It’s like that video of him in the dunk tank drinking champagne wasn’t enough of a red flag. This whole administration is a dumpster fire.

      Putting in a drunken womanizing Fox News talking head, what could go wrong, go wrong, go wrong…

    21. Van-garde on

      You don’t put an alcoholic in charge of secrecy without an ulterior motive.

    22. RakhshandaC on

      A new recruit could do a better job than this worthless drunk. I’m so ashamed of our country right now and those that were selfish and put an idiot in office to ruin our freedoms

    24. No-Description-1203 on

      Someone (and that may be many) is going to get killed with the misuse of sensitive info with this bozo in charge.

    25. insuproble on

      The most extraordinarily unqualified Secretary of Defense in American history.

      MAGA should become a psychiatric diagnosis.

    26. FredUpWithIt on

      I feel like „Wasn’t such a great idea“ is a little bit of an understatement.

      Immature alcoholic nazi frat bro douchebag with precisely zero relevant experience put in charge of the most professional and powerful military in the world ….what could fucking possibly go wrong.

    28. simonthecat33 on

      Trump learned his lesson from the first term. It’s all about loyalty. If he told Pete to drop a nuke on New York City, Pete wouldn’t even ask why.

    29. StoppableHulk on

      Well I think we can at least all agree that there was *no way* to see this coming.

      Who could have thought that putting an alcoholic weekend TV host in charge of one of the largest and most complex bureaucracies on Earth would have consequences.

      No one could have possibly known.

    30. Melodic-Frosting-443 on

      Best quote from the piece –

      *“How many times does Pete Hegseth need to leak classified intelligence before Donald Trump and Republicans understand that he isn’t only a f*cking liar, he is a threat to our national security?“*

      It is only a matter of time before US personnel are killed due to Hegseth.

      Let’s say Iran in the near future shots down a US fighter jet – they could tweet „Thanks for adding us to the Signal chat Pete!“ and the political fire it would cause would be more than if they had the pilot or not.

      Trump literally formed his own team of super villains. The Guild of Callamious Intent, the Legion of Doom, the Sinister Six, the Serpent Society. Who else am I missing?

    32. DFu4ever on

      Dr. Nikolas Van Helsing from The Cannonball Run is basically our Secretary of Defense.

    35. oneseventwosix on

      Rational adults knew that.
      People objected to his appointment.

      Go talk to the people that voted to confirm him.
      This is their fault.

    36. squidvett on

      You could make Ad Lib copies of this sentence and just fill them all in with Trump’s appointees.

    37. LuminaraCoH on

      He took the job because he thought Trump said „distillery“ instead of „military“.

    39. well_bang_okay on

      They could have put any sort of corporate defense guy in charge and he would have been boring but in step with Trump, instead they chose weird crusader larper who can’t stop drinking

    40. Xtreeam on

      Hegseth is just one piece of a much bigger problem. The entire MAGA orbit around Trump carries long-term consequences we’ll be dealing with for years.

    41. CarltonCatalina on

      He seems cut out as more of a men’s room attendant offering used Chapsticks and cheap cologne.

    42. BasilRare6044 on

      And we might hear about all of the top secret confidential documents he is stealing more that he knows his days are numbered.

    45. muffledvoice on

      It would be a mistake to put Pete Hegseth in charge of a hot dog stand.
