I will be very relieved to have this warrior leading my warriors.
[11:01] – Pete Hegseth, Trump’s secretary of defense nominee, read his opening statement before Senate lawmakers, unveiling his top priorities if confirmed on Capitol Hill. “[Trump], like me, wants a Pentagon laser-focused on lethality, meritocracy, warfighting, accountability, and readiness. We will remain patriotically apolitical and stridently constitutional.”
[5:48] – I had no interest in actually watching the Democrat senators. Thankfully, Megyn Kelly endured the torture so I wouldn’t have to. CLICK https://x.com/TheOnlyDSC/status/1879242577804976257 [:11] to see a blessedly brief montage of the Democrat hags embarrass women everywhere.

[7:27] – Senator Mullin’s snarky responses to Democrats’ accusations that Hegseth is a drunken sexual predator were priceless. During Dem rants, Hegseth noted the alcoholism accusations were anonymous and unproven, while the 2017 sex incident had been consensual. He further noted that law enforcement investigators entirely cleared him of wrongdoing.
[7:10] – Two good questions from Senator Tuberville. Two excellent answers by Hegseth.
Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) has decided to formally support Hegseth’s nomination. “After four years of weakness in the White House, Americans deserve a strong Secretary of Defense.” Democrat John Fetterman (PA) has also indicated he’s likely to vote yes. With the 119th U.S. Senate sitting 47 Dems and 52 GOPs, Trump’s nominees need every vote they can get. FYI: Vance’s seat is currently empty. Until Jan 20, Harris will preside any tie breakers.

VAXXXINE: The Department of Defense rescinded the COVID-19 vaccination requirement in 2023, but Biden’s Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has refused to reinstate the 3,400 some troops who were pushed out of service for refusing it. Hegseth vowed to not only reinstate them, but also “they will receive an apology, back pay, and rank that they lost because they were forced out due to an experimental vaccine.”
