Trump stands by Pete Hegseth for Defense Secretary

Pete Hegseth Awarded Silver Star For Enduring Roomful Of Hysterical Women | Babylon Bee

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a historic first, a current presidential cabinet nominee received an official military commendation, as Pete Hegseth was awarded the Silver Star for enduring a roomful of hysterical women during his Senate confirmation hearing.

In less than one full day of questioning before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Hegseth withstood a near-constant barrage from female Democratic senators, leaving witnesses amazed by his heroic display of courage and determination.

"A truly astounding example of toughness and bravery in the face of danger," Republican Senator Eric Schmidt said. "I've heard a lot of inspiring stories over the years from combat veterans, but what we witnessed today was impressive. What Pete Hegseth endured today will go down in history books."

Hegseth was modest after receiving the honor. "It's just part of the job," he said. "Hearing live rounds whizzing by your head in combat is good preparation for dealing with feminist senators."

 

Pete Hegseth Clarifies Women Allowed In Combat Roles But It’s A Huge Turnoff - The Onion
WASHINGTON—In an evident attempt to walk back previous inflammatory statements, prospective Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth clarified Thursday that although he now believes women should be allowed in combat roles, he still sees that as a huge turnoff. “While I want to state that I have nothing but respect for the female troops serving our country, it’s important to stress that thinking about that sort of thing is a real boner killer,” said Hegseth, adding that even a “total knockout, 10 out of 10″ would be marked down several points in his book if she were dressed up in a baggy, shapeless military uniform and given an assault rifle. “Personally, I believe there are several aspects of their biology that make women far better equipped to be sexy back on the homefront. It also really grosses me out thinking of them with, like, a butch buzz cut and muscles. It should be up to each individual servicewoman to decide whether she wants to be deployed to the front lines and turned into a total uggo. If not, there’s certainly a lot of room for them to look like absolute bombshells dressed as Army nurses.” Hegseth went on to suggest his mind might be changed if the military dress code were amended to require female soldiers to wear only a camouflage bra and panties on the battlefield.

 

He's unqualified!! And status quo has been doing a bang up job!

Pentagon can't account for 63% of nearly $4 trillion in assets
DOD regularly buys parts and equipment it doesn’t need because it can’t keep track of the parts and equipment it already owns

Is that your interpretation or did he actually say that? I know he was asked the question but I don’t believe he said yes but I could be wrong since I only had the confirmation hearing on in the background.
