AOC Mocks Pete Hegseth for Successfully Keeping His Mouth Shut on Iran
New Republic via Yahoo ^ | 6/23/25 | Edith Olmsted

Posted on 06/24/2025 6:14:11 AM PDT by DallasBiff

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was not impressed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s sudden ability to keep his mouth shut about U.S. military plans.

Newsmax host Todd Starnes offered his congratulations to Hegseth Saturday for pulling off sweeping strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities without giving up the game.

“Not a single leak. Well done, @SecDef,” Starnes wrote in a post on X.

The New York Democrat didn’t see that as quite the cause for celebration.

“This is like applauding a grown man for being able to wipe their behind,” Cortez responded in a post on X. “Not exactly a vote of confidence.”

Well I guess she knows about wiping her behind since her face and words it spews from looks like a horses behind.

She’s pretending that she doesn’t know the real reason there were no leaks. It’s because all parties involved didn’t tell HER and her ilk.

What is so worth congratulations that security on a sortie of this size was kept sound? This is the way it is supposed to be. And this is why the POTUS has the authority to plan and implement without congress. Plus this is what congress is supposed to honor and why they were treated to silence about the attack so they wouldn’t leak it because they have history of blowing OPSEC.

AOC aside, why did Starmes feel the need to ask that question? Was he trying to say that, Hegseth didn't leak THIS TIME?

It was like an underhanded accusation, while trying to sound congratulatory.

Sandy truly believes that she is politically and socially relevant.

She is neither.

Sandy truly believes she is important and powerful.

She is neither.

What Sandy is is a joke: A loud-mouthed, breathtakingly shallow, unwise fool complete with a mexican stage name. Sandy is nothing more than a creation of the Democrat/Communist Party political class designed to make the leaders of the cult appear sane in contrast.

It remained secret because they didn’t tell any Democrats.

Given the entrenched opposition to what Pete is doing to clean up the military, it’s both surprising and gratifying there were no leaks. The silence suggests his team kept the old DEI holdovers completely out of the loop—a testament to their operational discipline.

And that discipline wasn’t incidental. In today’s Pentagon, keeping something this big quiet is a major operation in itself, requiring extreme compartmentalization, careful vetting, and airtight counterintelligence. OPSEC wasn’t a footnote—it was a parallel mission.

The democrats are an unserious party. Rather than work with the admin to find solutions, they mock and deride and slander.

Very unserious. Transex, sex, sex, and more sex, backing illegals murderers, cartel drugs and pedophiles along with robbery rings is what democrats stand for today.

No wonder I left them behind.

Sandy truly believes she is important and powerful.

To democrats, and as of today, she is the leading candidate for president in 2028. So, she is very important to democrats.

What Sandy is is a joke: A loud-mouthed, breathtakingly shallow, unwise fool complete with a mexican stage name. Sandy is nothing more than a creation of the Democrat/Communist Party political class designed to make the leaders of the cult appear sane in contrast.

As dumb as people want to make her out to be, she is much more intelligent that Kamala, and would not be known for word salads during campaigning or anytime or anywhere.

So, it behooves us to beware of what she is and who she represents and how she is received by all who for whatever reason admire her. She is Jaamnine Crocket, but not as ugly. Crocket is a loudmouth and so is AOC, but AOC is not seen as crazy as Crocket.

Also, AOC is not Mexican or of Mexican descent.
