DP. I don’t think it’s relevant whatsoever what some random poster’s military spouse FB friends thought about that debacle. But, as a counterpoint, I live in a military-heavy area and have tons of military spouses for FB friends, and not a single one of them posted anything in support of it. |
| Did he give this sophomoric speech to generals while drunk? |
While demented |
there were two idiots on the dias. One drunk, one demented. |
I had no idea. I just thought it was a clever reference to a type of stolen valor where like an MD's wife thinks she's the doctor. Had no idea it was a play on weight. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dependapotamus |
PP above is clearly lying. That post has all the hallmarks of the current disinformation campaign being run. |
To clarify, the PP lying about all the imaginary military members supposedly cheering that embarrassing event. |
lol they cheered in North Carolina and they are cheering now. The US military will level US cities and wonder why everyone hate them. It’s time to break this country apart. You can become North Korean and the blue states can join Canada and NATO. |

| If Hegseth's standards end up disqualifying women and men of color and LGBQT folks . . . I guess that means the white men will be sent off to fight in foreign wars to get killed, maimed, PTSD? While the women and POC and LGBQT stay home in America, safe and sound? |

What does he expect of men and women who typically serve after bootcamp only one weekend per month and two weeks per year, unless called up to special duty for natural disasters and/or fascist invasions of blue American cities??? These National Guardspeople live in the same obesogenic environment as the rest of America, endure the same stressors of balancing fulltime work (and a second job!) with family obligations, eating crap on the run because nobody has time to cook nourishing whole food meals at home, etc. Active duty military have more time to hit the gym but still not all that much. Meanwhile they frequently use food banks not just in the time of government shutdowns because the pay is crap - and food bank food is lots of cheap carbs, not lots of lean proteins and fresh fruits and veggies. Hegseth is a spoiled punk Fox News personality who should be focused on fixing these issues that plague service people's lives instead of mocking and berating them. |
