    Pete Hegseth hit with latest embarrassment as Venmo list leaks

    An investigation into Pete Hegseth's Venmo by The American Prospect revealed the Defense Secretary had left his account on public, providing a detailed friends list of potential payers and payees.

    Described by reporters Daniel Boguslaw and Luke Goldstein as a "digital Rolodex," the leaked Venmo friends list includes a revealing selection of executives and Washington insiders.

    Some of Hegseth's contacts include tech executives from Silicon Valley like Google's Scott Brown and defense contractors from Palantir and Anduril. Executives at UnitedHealth Group, the insurance giant whose CEO was assassinated in December, are also on the list, as are media figures from far-right outlet The Daily Wire.

    Hegseth also appears to have been in touch with extremist conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, and even former President George W. Bush's national security advisor, Mark Pfeifle.

    Guy in charge of our national defense had his venmo set to public? Lol. Not like he's some 78 year old grandman who doesn't understand tech.

    To be fair, he might have been drunk when he set it up.

    So what is this thread all about? Does keeping it public mean we can steal his account stuff or what?
