thoughts, people?

[vivenne]

Suprised. Has he run anything before?

[john316]

Sarcasm alert
Up next, Gutfeld for press secretary?

[VeniVidiVici]

Captain in the Army. Combat vet. Certainly more qualified than many others. He even sent his degree back to Harvard as they were too woke.

Tyrus said he wants that gig. Watch out!

Has he run anything before?
************************************************
He seems to run around on his wives. Does that count?

I heard Brett Baier was nominated as Secretary of People With No Necks

This appointment means Obama's Perfumed Princes are on the block. Pete is out of the box thinking. The Autin, Milley and Kelly type Generals are now on notice. Hegseth owes The Swamp nada.

Great Pick.

Here is a recent interview with Mr Hegseth with Sean Ryan.

That would be awesome.

I’m surprised. I like Pete Hegseth, but I don’t know if this is something he’s qualified for.

[vivenne]

Thank you.

Great pick. Trump wants the woke military to end. Well Hegseith wrote a book about! Go Sec of Defense Pete Hegseith.

Pete Hegseth joined the Army to fight extremists. Then that same Army called him one. The military Pete joined twenty years ago was fiercely focused on lethality, competency, and color blindness. Today our brass are following the rest of our country off the cliff of cultural chaos and weakness.

Americans with common sense are fighting this on many fronts, but if we can’t save the meritocracy of our military, we’re definitely going to lose everywhere else.

The War on Warriors uncovers the deep roots of our dysfunction—a society that has forgotten the men who take risks, cut through red tape, and get their hands dirty. The only kind of men prepared to face the dan­gers that the Left pretends don’t exist. Unlike issues of education or taxes or crime, this problem doesn’t have a zip code solution. We can’t move away from it. We can’t avoid it. We have only one Pentagon. Either we take it back or surrender it altogether.

Combining his own war experiences, tales of outrage, and an incisive look at how the chain of com­mand got so kinked, this book is the key to saving our warriors—and winning future wars. The War on War­riors must be won by the good guys, because when the shooting really starts, they’re the only ones who can save us.

[vivenne]

Ouch. Didn’t know that.

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

Thanks. I don’t know his back ground, but I trust Trump.

Not a fan of Baier at all.

Why pull someone from an anti-conservative channel?
