You’re right. I got aggravated and I went somewhere I didn’t need to go; I apologize folks.

Pete is not an entrenched Swamp Creature from the Pentagon beholden to Defense Contractors and Lobbyist of Militia Weaknesses

Pete is not a Saint, and grated, so very few individuals really are

45 / 47 trusts Pete to be forthright and Pete is the exact outsider that is needed to head up our Forces rather than some overly decorated back room yes man of the overly inflated defense budget

The only time we as Taxpayers should over pay for anything on our Forces is perhaps Good Beer for the Troops, instead of the watered down Bud Light their provided

I'm a proponent of Pete despite his lack of Boy Scout Badges pinned to his uniform, in fact, Because he has so little adornments on his Uni ~ he's the Regular Guy that CAN & WILL LEAD

He ate Elizabeth Warren's dumb ass for lunch with her stupid "General" question and Bondi was a nuke into the heart of the Dem roach nest. She bitch slapped Schiff and others, they spent too many tax dollars trying to get her to say she was going after Trump's lawfare instigators and she wasn't having it.

I think he has spoken about his plans if he is confirmed. As a 28 year veteran myself, I can tell you that the people I speak to, who are still serving constantly tell me how bad things are since I retired 10 years ago. Every last one mentions the root cause of all the problems are the woke, DEI emphasis instead of actual military considerations trumping left wing policies. I’d be happy to let you speak to any of them. Hegseth may not be the most qualified SECDEF in history, but his perspective as a “boots on the ground” infantryman, and his support of the war-fighter may be what the DOD needs.

I'm not a military man. Spent my life in the construction business. And I have seen these guys with degrees and resumes and petegree be elevated to leadership positions only to make a mess of a project.
Meanwhile I have seen "rank & file" calaoused tradesmen elevated and they shine and not only get the job done...they are respected by the boots.

Somebody posted a hoot about the "Peter Pam" allegory, where the feckless Democratic Dr. Hook villains were constantly trying to trap the heroes, ignoring the alligator stalking them with a ticking clock.

I rose to be a Federal Senior Exec from the lowly blue collar ranks (even serving a blue collar gov't apprenticeship) and constantly fought the bias that a 'boots on the ground' guy couldn't be a leader of large endeavors.

Its bullshit.

Yeah and in the midst of the US leadership turnover the CA fires have become emblematic of the left's work and liberal policies and then Biden's scorched earth exit hasn't helped.

Dolling out more million, pardoning 1,000 of felons and trying to claim Middle East successes after 4 years of failure....laughable.

The problems with EVERY DAMN APPOINTMENT HEARING is that the dumb-as-**** dems are raising questions regarding the laws THEY IGNORED FOR THE LAST FOUR YEARS!!

This is very comical, and easily predictable.

Not a single socialist under the dome took an action, or said a single word, as the current incompetent and fraudulent administration broke every law on the books.

Proof positive the left has learned nothing from Nov 5th, they are singing the same old song that America soundly rejected.

Keerist, the Dems need some younger people with a fresh approach.
