The controversy surrounding Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and his tattoo choices intensified earlier this week after he unveiled a brand-new "Kill All Commies" tattoo on his forehead.
Sources said Hegseth first displayed the tattoo by removing a MAGA hat during a press briefing, revealing the words "Kill All Commies" prominently inked across his brow.
"Should Americans be worried about the message your new tattoo sends?" a reporter asked Hegseth. "On the surface, it would appear that you're in favor of killing all communists. Is that the case, Mr. Secretary?"
The Defense Secretary brushed off the question as yet another attempt by the media to paint him as an extremist.
"That is such a silly and irresponsible accusation," Hegseth said. "I don't understand how anyone could look at a tattoo that says 'Kill All Commies' and misconstrue that into thinking I'm in favor of killing all communists. More liberal media propaganda."
Hegseth had been at the center of a public relations firestorm following the scandal in which he and other Trump administration officials were found to have been discussing military actions in a Signal group chat, placing renewed scrutiny on his leadership. The new tattoo only served to increase criticism across the media and social media.

Good one!
He needs tear tattoos below his eyes. Lots of them.
Do it for mommy.
I tried that but it came out “Seimmoc Lla Llik”
Hah! Had me going along for a minute, didn’t notice it was from Babylon Bee, and I just thought oh jeeze, what the hell has he gone a done? Not that I disagree, but it’s just not appropriate for Secretary of Defense, and Trump would be forced to fire him. Not the first time I was fooled by the Bee, some of our loony politicians on the left make great material, some of their stuff could well be real.
What!?! It’s a religious tattoo.
LOL! I’ll bet that squeezed a lot of F*** Bombs out of the Tesla Burning EV haters, baby killers and muzzie terrorist lovers.
LOL! Go Bee!
Ha!
He does need a politically incorrect tattoo on his right arm to match the new one on his left.
And AOC immediately demanded Secret Service protection and filed charges against Hegseth for making a direct death threat.
So is it open season on Democrats with no license or bag limit or not.
Ha ha ha!
Or in American English Democrats!
Reminds me I used to have a hunting license for them. It was kind of like an elk tag. It was good for a limited area and for a limited period of time, but at least there was no bag limit.
Took the bait. Thought this was for real. Funny stuff.
Hey, my former girlfriend had a tattoo on the inside of her thigh tha said, “KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF”,
But it was in Braille
Chootem, Jacob chootem!
Ping
Okay...I’ll admit it...I read the first two sentences thinking it was real and then though, “Wait, is the the Bee?”
