Instead of asking Pete Hegseth if he likes alcohol, maybe our Press should smarten up ask him how many countries the U.S. has bases in. Or maybe what experience he has managing giant logistics and supply chain processes.
Ask him anything to do with the job he seeks.

The incoming Trump administration is not sending their best. They’re sending people with big problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re rapists. They’re alcoholics. They’re criminals. And some, I assume, are good people 🤷🏽♀️

Reminder that the woman accusing Pete Hegseth of assaulting her is a Republican, and the incident occurred at a Republican conference. She was there with her husband. Pretty difficult set of circumstances to dismiss as a witch hunt but seems like Republicans are going to try.

MONTHS AFTER Joe said he would not pardon Hunter, Trump won the election & appointed a man as FBI Director who has spent the last 4 years on every right-wing podcast ranting that he was going to go after Hunter. Obsessed with him. Were you aware of that, critics? Not relevant?

What sticks in my mind about Charles Kushner, Trump's nominee to be ambassador to France, is that he targeted a brother-in-law who was cooperating with authorities in the criminal case against him, hiring a prostitute to seduce him so he could be intimidated into silence. His sister's husband.
