Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth faced a grueling hearing by the Senate Armed Services Committee Tuesday; while no minds were changed, Hegseth’s performance probably ensured his confirmation (see Pete Hegseth’s Confirmation Hearing Starts in 30 Minutes, This Is What You Need to Know). In my view, Hegseth showed a respect for the process it probably didn’t deserve. He came prepared, and when he wasn’t the subject of libelous and defamatory attacks — Hawaii’s Mazie Hirono actually accused him of rape — he engaged with senators on the panel. No one could doubt his enthusiasm and zeal for the job.
An average 5th grader could have outwitted those numbskulls! If I were a democrat, I’d just hang myself at this point. LOL!!!
