They did ask him that. And then a Republican said they had a lot of nerve to ask that because what were the qualifications to be a senator. (As if running a huge Federal agency with responsibility for nuclear weapons and hundreds of thousands of young lives is the same as voting on bills and managing a small congressional staff). Then a Republican tried to demonstrate Hegseth’s street cred by asking how many push ups he can do and what size billets a gun holds. No joke. |
You should know that this country have convicted service for treason. From Benedict Arnold to Korbein Schultz this country has had people in the military who have sold their country out for 40 pieces of silver. |
Just shut up with your fake stories |
+100. No one is promised a seat in Congress or to continue it. They are elected to do a job. Are they doing the job? From where I'm seating many of these folks need to be sent home as they are wasting Americans time and money. |
Willing to take my chances on a teenager over a womanizing drunk. |
Not to mention any and every confederate solder and officer (whom he wants to restore those names to military bases). |
Thank you. I'm watching the clips. I really wish Dems would stick on this one theme instead of going down the sexual assault path. We know the American public doesn't care about SA. |
He's making a terrible point because he already acknowledge that there are women in combat doing amazing jobs. So either the military is letting unqualified people into combat or the standards are fine. |
Trump who....oh the old guy at the golf course. |
He did! |
And clearly said Senator doesn't understand that the job of a Senator is to be a representative and advocate for his state, while working with other Senators to find compromise in that benefits the American people, and doing the duties as laid in the Constitution. Maybe if said Senator better understood his role he would be doing a better job in these hearings. |
The unbelievable part is that he could not be hired as a janitor in the DOD because of his background but it's all right to make him in charge of DOD!!! |
Some of us do. You would think at least half of us should . 🙁 |
This. High schoolers can be very thoughtful and know when to ask questions. They also care about the future. |
It makes him susceptible to "Honey Pots" which leads to blackmail, extortion, bribes, you name it. Even Pete said the reason he settled the sexual assault allegation was because he was afraid it would get out and hurt his career. That was just a career on FOX news. |
