WATCH: Pete Hegseth Effortlessly Smacks Down Dem Senator Mazie Hirono After She Asks a Disgusting Question About Trump and the Leftist Riots Across the Country
Gateway Pundit ^ | 06/18/2025 | Cullen Linebarger

The person many regard as the dumbest senator in America ended up red-faced after trying to humiliate the nation’s secretary of defense with an inane question at a congressional hearing on Wednesday.

As NBC News reported, Pete Hegseth testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee regarding the Pentagon’s budget request.

During the hearing, he was hit with multiple questions regarding the Iran-Israel conflict and military deployments in Los Angeles. The latter became particularly fiery once dim-witted Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) got her chance to interrogate the defense secretary.

Hirono decided to try to humiliate Hegseth with a sick question designed to paint Trump as a tyrannical dictator, implying that he wanted protesters to get shot for exercising their First Amendment rights.

Of course, force would be justifiable if said agitators decided to assault law enforcement, which has consistently happened in riots all over the country.

“If ordered by the President to shoot peaceful protesters in the legs, would you carry out such an order?” Hirono inquired.

Hegseth was ready, though, and promptly swatted Hirono aside.

“Senator, as I have said before, of course, I reject the premise of your question,” Hegseth replied. “And the characterization that I would be given unlawful orders, it’s all meant to smear the commander in chief, and I won’t fall for it.

That’s how it’s done.

Hegseth also left Hirono dismayed after she demanded to know whether he would follow a court ruling that said sending federal troops (Marines, for example) into America’s cities was illegal.

After Hegseth pointed out that the ruling was still pending, he stated that district courts should not determine national security policy and that the administration would decide once it reached the Supreme Court.

This creature is the classic “poster woman” for why the Founding Fathers didn’t want women involved in government/politics....and the reason had nothing to do with “sexism”.

I don’t understand why Republicans act so meekly while being questioned in public by conniving Dumb Democrats such as Sen. Hirono. In response, I would talk right over her and say, They’re violent rioters, not “peaceful protesters” and you need to learn the obvious difference. Of course she’ll ridiculously respond with their typical hysterical, I’M CLAIMING MY TIME, CLAIMING MY TIME! I will ask you once again, will you follow orders from your Republican superiors to shoot the wonderfully peaceful protesters in the leg? And I would again answer, You’re talking about the extremely violent rioters at the Democrat-sponsored 2020 “Defund the Police” and 2025 “No Kings” violent riots which were perpetrated throughout the nation during two President Trump Administrations but very suspiciously not during the Biden Administration. Why is that? Then she’ll scream over me again with, CLAIMING MY TIME! CLAIMING MY TIME! ... (and I would just smirk) ...

When the question is, “How stupid are the stupidest members of Congress?”

The answer is “Mazie Hirono”.

Well God bless dim-witted Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) - she’s the only reason Connecticut’s Chris Murphy isn’t the dumbest in the Senate.

Unfortunately Hawaii is capable of putting an idiot like her in the Senate. They should not be a state.
