Yep which is why its critical that all of his picks standfast and Trump stand behind them.

If drinking and having affairs was a real deal killer for Washington DC service then the place would be a ghost town.

Trump need to stand his ground and say if you don't confirm them I'll uses every means at my disposal to appoint them for as long as I can then appoint someone else and keep doing it till January 2029.

It's going to get ugly but corrupt politicians are not going to just stop being corrupt politicians on their own.

Your spelling and punctuation alone disqualify you from having a serious conversation. Go back to Starbucks

Yep, you normally see this with SCOTUS nominations.....not so much on "The Secretary of 7/11"

But hey, OMB. So it was predictable.

Trannies running the military.

Cross dressers stealing luggage.

Dem aides having sex in Senate chambers.

2 assassination attempts.

Garland harassing parents who complain at school board meetings.

A Homeland Security secretary who allowed the country to be invaded.

A Defense Sec who allowed military equipment worth 100s of millions of dollars to be captured.

A major Party who lied about the very real danger of propping up a President dealing with serious cognitive decline.

A Cabinet that was so poorly run that it met only once during 2024.

And you’re worried about a womanizer?

Feel like Tulsi and RFK should be easy to get through being former Dems, the question back to Dems is why were they not issues before.

Politico is in a full court press to make Pete quit. They have published at least three pieces against him in the last day alone.


And this is why the left will lose again at mid-terms and fail again in 2028. They haven't learned a single thing for the shallacking they got last month.

Accusations by people unwilling to give their names. Hell they might not even exist

They already started on Tulsi. Its a deep state op. Bolton is already on record saying both Pete and Tulsi are Russian assets.

If they don't fight hard against a pick, then you might want to question the pick.....if they are ok with them.

well damn, he was accused huh.....congrats to him for coming clean on alcoholism. The real issue is that MSM hates him and the dems because they are scared shitless. You are an idiot. Also, Defense.

They couldn't defeat Trump, so they're doing anything and everything they can at this point to slow the train down.

According to Pete, he’s not got a drinking problem. Many of these allegations are baseless also. Especially the Fox News stuff. Pete’s answer is, produce the tape where I was drunk on air. Nobody at Fox collaborates the allegations.

He said he’s heard from many people who are willing to join or re-up the military once Trump is sworn in and he’s confirmed solving recruiting shortfalls because the trust him as someone who “gets us” opposed to someone who’s spent the last decade behind a desk.

Agree 1000%

But maybe they are not misreading the results of a landslide

But are in total desperation mode

I hope both are true

Vets will run through a wall for Hegseth

We’ve never had someone like him as SECDEF ever. He’s not some bullshite admiral. He’s someone who’s kicked down the fricking doors.

This is our one chance to get someone at the top who can make REAL change and not just toe the line of the status quo.

The Pete stuff is important imo. That position requires a sober mind and there’s just too much smoke on that issue
