People who are much smarter than the vastly undereducated Gadfly said it was a horrible, rotten, no good idea to install a manifestly unqualified, substance abusing, undeserving, Fox "news" weekend talk show co-host, accused rapist, and white nationalist sympathizer as the Secretary of Defense and moral values leader of the 3 million diverse Americans serving in all branches of the US Armed Forces.
The Gadfly made that prediction alongside those much smarter people btw, but only because it was just so fucking obvious how undeserving and disturbing Hegseth's nomination for Defense Secretary was to begin with.
And of course, as expected, here we are:
Link: White House looking to replace Pete Hegseth as defense secretary : NPR
"The White House has begun the process of looking for a new secretary of defense, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to speak publicly.
This comes as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth continues to find himself mired in controversy. NPR has also confirmed with the same official that Hegseth shared details ahead of last month's Yemen strikes with his wife and brother in a Signal chat on his personal phone, minutes after being updated by a senior U.S. military official. The news of the second Signal group chat about the mission was first reported by The New York Times.
In March, Hegseth shared details about action against Houthi targets in Yemen in a Signal chat with top White House officials that accidentally included a journalist.
Days after the Signal leak, the Pentagon warned the app was the target of hackers
In the last few weeks, four senior advisers to Hegseth have left abruptly, some accused of leaking. They have all released public statements suggesting infighting within the department of defense."
Drumpf, as he routinely does, demonstrated horrible personal judgment in nominating Pete Hegseth for the US Secretary of Defense position. The Republican eunuchs in the Senate demonstrated equally horrid judgment in approving the nomination.
That very same caliber of judgment btw can be seen in DonOld's nominees for DOJ (twice), DHS/DNI, FBI, CIA, IRS, HHS, and Education. And of course, we can't overlook his giving a drug-addled, carpetbagging South African super-billionaire and his posse of cyberpunk minions carte-blanche access and control over multiple US government agencies and programs.
Drumpf will of course blame Pete Hegseth's imminent downfall on a media "witch hunt," while his enablers will waggle their fingers claiming it justifies their demands to purge even more people from the military leadership ranks than what they have already done for being insufficiently loyal to dear leader.
This is what these charlatans do when their bad decision-making blows up in their stupid faces, they seek out scapegoats. Just as their moral-values bankrupt movement made scapegoats out of immigrants for this country's economic stagnation, when the real culprit, corporate and political greed and corruption, are what brought the nation to that point.
Seriously though - don't you MAGAs ever tire of Drumpf's phony, greasy, dim-witted, used car salesman shtick?? When are you all going to grow up and just admit that you got conned by a fast-talking, smooth bullshitting, conniving, criminally-convicted con-artist and you just cannot bring yourselves to admit to your own personal moral values failure?
Perhaps if more Americans had wised up earlier about the mobbed-up hiring mentality of Don the Con's Used Car lot they might have thought better of supporting him and our country would not have ended up with a, leaking, sputtering, falling apart, no warranty lemon like Pete Hegseth as the leader and role model for the proud members of our nation's military.
