Demonrats are fuming!
I heard the Democrats really dont like him.
Good move by Secretary of War Hegseth.
How about a promotion and a payraise?.................
I agree with it being a classy move. If that had been during the Biden or Obama era, that soldier would have been punished.
I’m a big Pete fan but this seems like damage control. When the rats impeach him they are going to run that video on a loop in prime time.
Take that all you idiots who thought Hegseth would punish the kid.
This is like the rookie cop citing the Chief for speeding.

“To walk my post from flank to flank, and take no shit from any rank.”
