DUI Hire
...the alchohol.
I still don’t understand why they have so much against trans ppl in the armed forces? It’s thousands who voluntarily dedicate their lives to keeping everyone else safe. That’s more than Trump did. As to Hegseth he probably tried dating a trans person while serving and discovered extra gear. It has
to be something that has caused him to have such strong feelings about them. Or maybe he has a secret? 🤫 Someone should check his wardrobe for woman’s clothes. I would not be surprised if he got off on posing as a sissy when drunk.
A lot of Trump’s administration is people cosplaying the job they have versus being qualified and actually doing the job.
It is the whole administration. Posers, clowns, half wits. These are people that want so badly to be respected but the shadow of stupidity hangs over them at every turn. Bnecause their leader has no conscience, no ability, no real experience they are all going down in history as the worst admin..
Can we just promise him an eternity of sweaty beach volleyball with some guys from the Navy in return for his resignation? I think he would go for it.
Pete Hegseth is a grub. Everyone who’s served knows a shitbag like him.
In the civilian world everyone has had manager like that too. A dick is a dick
Indeed. We’ve all worked for a “just get it done” asshole boss like Hegseth.
He’s another narcissist‼️
You forgot to mention his makeup room
I liked the part where he'd regularly close off the hallways (in the Pentagon!) so he could shoot workout videos for Instagram.
Omg
Hahahaaa omg what???? I totally believe it, but god damn, that's really cringey.
He's going to do a morning routine video, I guarantee it. Maybe even with "journaling" for like 3-6 minutes, before or after giving thanks to his Almighty (whether Trump or Jesus TBD), and a face-dunk in bowl of bottled ice-water served by his compliant wife.
The entire administration are playing parts starting at the top with Trump. He's directing a real reality show at our country & the world's peril.
And now we are at war with Iran. 😢
HegSeth is not even competent enough to lead a platoon, let alone a defense complex of a 1000 platoons.
Everyone in the Trump admin is cosplaying their roles. Not exactly breaking news.
Don’t forget talking about the “warrior ethos” and the “war fighter” ad nauseam.
All these morons in these roles think they’re just a paid spokesperson…
So many oldie but goodie songs strangely seeming relevant lately: CSN&Y “Chicago” & “Ohio”, Carly Simon “You’re So Vain,” Babs “Don’t Rain on My Parade”, Kanye’s “Stronger”….
Basically what he did at Fox, plus tons of lying
He did tons of lying at fox, too.
So much substance and depth!!
Never forget the Republican senators who showed no integrity or patriotism whatsoever to confirm this DUI hire and put him in charge of those actually serving our country. U.S. Senate: U.S. Senate Roll Call Votes 119th Congress - 1st Session share.google/jGdBUtsLYDUe...
This Idiot is always Drunk , Stupid and Ugly
Unqualified TV host
Ever wonder why this guy never made Lt. Colonel or completed his twenty years?
Narrator: “these were ‘parts of the job’ that he created for himself”
Practiced acting and lying at Fox Entertainment, just doing what he learned in the Entertainment industry. That's why he has a makeup studio in the Pentagon, got to look good for the camera like Ice Barbie and Duh Blondy.
Pete is playing Def Sec in the same way Trump is producing a reality show about a billionaire from NYC who became president.
What’d ya except from an unqualified incompetent?
It’s almost like they all think they’re on a tv show.
Superannuated Frat Boy
And the warfighting 🙄
Let’s see which other Cabinet members are just props playing the role-FBI Guys? Yupper Noem and Big Mouth Tom-Def Yup RFK-We’re screwed FEMA-Can someone direct a hurricane to hit Mar-O-Logo asap?
And being on tv. That's the biggest reason he was hired.
He’s an absolute disgrace, an embarrassment. Just like the rest of this fraudulent, amateurish cabinet which was assembled for no other reason than to placate trump and carry out his fascist agenda.
Please don’t post paywall stuff.

Great thanks.
Hegseth is an incompetent asshole just like everyone else in this admin
Any money, he spends a lot on porn sites featuring Trans folk. Those who complain the most are the ones who are self-loathing.
The dumbest dumb jock from everybody's class in high school is the United States Secretary of Defense. We are in hell.
This is great reporting…but forgot to include “drinking on the job”
Hmmm... not wearing a jacket I see. Wasn't that some imaginary MAGA violation?
😂
Only for heads of state of countries who want some of our money.
Gym Jordan giving him style advice! When the jacket is off and sleeves rolled up, they think it gives the illusion of being "hard at work". They don't realize we know it's bullshit.
Oh, good. I am glad he loves all the things necessary to...(checks notes)... strategically navigate our service members in light of war between Iran and Israel, deftly manage enraged citizens whose rights he is violating, and bring peace to the US.
Disgusting, but he fits in really well with the misogynist in chief.
Confirming this guy was a crime. Like Noem, it is all cosplay.
All of which indicates a painfully closeted man who deeply hates himself.
Pete’s prop in the Trump MAGA reality theater. Ineffectual, ignorant, and ineffective.
What else would anyone expect from a guy whose main qualification is that he looked "straight out of central casting" and he kissed Trump's ample posterior?
The ENTIRE administration is cosplaying. None of them are qualified to do anything productive.
Maybe he has secret desires.
Don't forget how quickly he updated men's grooming standards for the military. He likes his men a certain way.
I’d like to point out that while kicking out trans servicemembers is an abuse of his job, working out and posting about working out are in no way, shape or form parts of the job
Please consider gifting this article… 🙏🏻
I love this for the guys who were friends with him. Imagine being that easy a mark for a grifter like Hegseth. How embarrassing for them
Why is it behind payroll 😭😭
It’s been clear from the beginning he’s just a colossal douche bag, in every single way.
All of them are man babies playing dress up. Trump has played dress up business man his entire life. Hegseth is just the most obvious. He presents like a child playing make believe stomping around the house wearing his dad’s big grown up shoes. A bratty, know-nothing child w an obnoxious mouth.
And let’s be honest. Your basic gay is hotter than him
