Hegseth proves himself a total moron every time he opens his mouth.
This is wrong, this is stupid, this is 💯 political, this is illegal, and there’s ZERO reason for this. National Guard troops have lives, jobs & families. This is an absolute waste of their time. Trump is using them to try to score political points. Just terrible.👇

“The shooting of two National Guard members on Wednesday was not the first time there was violence near the White House.
During World War II, a stranger slipped into the White House to watch a movie with President Franklin D. Roosevelt.”

Did Kristi and Kash get to Vegas in one of Kristi's Gulfstream G700 private jets taxpayers paid $200,000,000 for or did they use a $60,000,000 FBI private jet that taxpayers also paid for? These are incompetent fools only on the job for the attention and theft.

Absolute solidarity to all the women out there who have had a man at work lean forward, point a finger at you, and mutter the equivalent of “quiet piggy” while all of your colleagues just stand around and do nothing.
