Pete Hegseth is out of his damn league. He went for the photo op and got reminded that military respect isn’t something you can cable-news your way into. It’s earned.

He is such a fraud. I think he missed his calling. He probably should have been an Evangelist. He could lead one of those big rich churches where he wouldn’t be booed. He thinks he’s so macho and Alpha, but to me he always looks like he’s about to burst into tears.

Do you remember the Duracell Putterman family? Hegseth and his family are the embodiment of battery-operated phony made-for-tv robots.

Saluting like he’s trying to keep a pair of invisible glasses on the bridge of his nose. He is exactly why SUSAN COLLINS WILL LOSE HER SENATE SEAT. Her deciding vote confirmed him and now our soldiers are forced to deal with his childish, racist commands.

Had he not gotten the position then Trump would have just put another bozo in for the job. There are an inexhaustible number of worthless and morally rotten goons that Trump can shoehorn into a government position.

When the story of these crazy days is finally written, the fact that this clown was entrusted with the nation’s defense will be among the most unbelievable aspects.

Salute? No, no, no. See, Ole SecDef Heggernuts was hungover af and that sun sure looks bright. Total coincidence those troops are there. He's actually on his way to Brook Brothers Junior to buy more tiny suits.

Hideous contemptible morons like Hogsbreath and Herr Müller bring shame on America through their hideous president who appointed them - neither of them was ever elected, remember!! Charlatan performers.

Exactly……we had the best of America (not your everyday persons) in the our Military. But now I wouldn’t recommend the Military to my children.

He was late to this event ..the Guards were standing in that heat, he is so disrespectful. Never has a Secretary of Defense in history has ever used or spoke to National Guard or Miltary so politically divisive Our Military literally fights for rights of those protesters

That salute. Like he's hiding his face in shame. The background noise? Pete called it the sound of "ingrates." No, Pete, it's the sound of you going down. Going down in history as the worst leader our military has ever known. A joke.

He told on himself by calling it the Department of War, too. It’s the Department of Defense because you’re there to defend the nation, MFer. Not to start wars.

I think that is called the “trying to hide my face while trying to seem tough in front of the troops salute because I know they don’t want me here since they know I’m a paper doll soldier.“ AKA fake soldier stealing honor.

He needs to practice in front of the mirror more cause he has no idea how ridiculous he looks. And none of these men in this entire administration have properly fitting suits. IJS

Fuck me. You're right. They're all wearing individually stupid suits. Trump's circus suits, Hegseth's skinny suits, RFK Jr's "action suit," Marco Rubio's clown shoes, and Stephen Miller's JC Penny kids suit he stole from a cursed puppet...

Maybe a sidepiece told him that overtight suits were youngish and manly. Perhaps afraid not to be a manly man 24/7? And that rehearsed, barked, hebephrenic speech! Wernicke-Korsakoff, rumbling in the distance? That hideous, signifyin' grin...

He’s a Nazi who has convinced our military that their paychecks are more important than democracy and freedom. I hope every last military who stood by him gets charged with treason. A pathetic military paycheck (my husband is a disabled veteran) is NOT worth a treason conviction. Promised pardons…

Seeing him salute like that looks ridiculous. He’s not a general. He’s a political appointee. BTW. Generals earn their rank. Pete never made it to Lt Colonel. Loser

He doesn’t get that Americans do not want our military walking our streets like some kind of occupation. We have police that enforce our laws. A judicial system to protect our rights. We respect our military. We don’t respect our government calling us ingrates. The only ingrate I see is Pete Hegseth

Here’s something I’m curious about. Remember Hegseth’s no drinking pledge at his confirmation? How’s that going for him? Ditto Jeanine Pirro . Although I don’t believe she made the same pledge it’s obvious that alcohol is a problem for her.

I'll be very shocked if either of them are even remotely close to sober when they do anything related to the job. If any of us violated that pledge even slightly, we'd have our whole lives ruined forever. Must be nice to be tight with the predators running the government. For now.
