I’ve long advocated for the press corps to stand in solidarity and do two things:
1. Follow ups should be directly at him being an asshole and defending their coworkers
2. They should absolutely ignore him and refuse to give him any press other than the fact that he’s an asshole

I think we’ll see charges (pending Trump pardons, obviously), but I don’t think it’s going to be during this administration.
That being said, I do thing Hegseth and Patel are wearing out their welcome with Trump and we’ll likely see some junk drawer (Cabinet) rearrangement soon.

I think he almost certainly will. After the midterms he’s going to be handing out pardons like Ronny Jackson hands out opioids.

I worry more about the data than anything, honestly. They almost certainly aren’t managing it properly. It’s only a matter of time before it’s all compromised.

I mean, they can try, but I suspect they’ll lose that one too - there’s really no grey area here. Her appointment was illegal.

When you read about these brazen crimes, remember that Hegseth believes he is carrying out God's will.
Pete Hegseth responded to all this with the smirking, adolescent sadism of a schoolyard bully pulling the legs off of a spider. Now juxtapose this with the horror experienced by a source who saw the imagery of the men being blown apart in the water:
