Pete Hegseth Faces Senate Confirmation Hearing as Trump's Defense Secretary Pick
ai generated text
Pete Hegseth, a former Fox News host and Donald Trump's controversial pick for Defense Secretary, is set to face a Senate confirmation hearing. Hegseth, who served in the Army National Guard, is expected to focus on "culture war" issues, including diversity in the military, during the hearing. However, his testimony will not address allegations of sexual assault and excessive drinking against him.
Can we really count on calling Hegseth at 2AM to make life and death national security decisions? Nope.
He can try to walk back his comments on women in combat all he wants, but we know what he thinks, right?
Mr Hegseth, I do not believe that you are qualified to meet the overwhelming demands of this job.
The challenge of the Secretary of Defense is to remove partisan politics from the military. You propose to inject it. This would be an insult to the men and women who have sworn to uphold their own apolitical duty to the Constitution.
Thank you to my incredible wife Jennifer, who has changed my life and been with me throughout this entire process.
It's time to give someone with dust on his boots the helm. A change agent.
