Call Your Senators: Hegseth Goes for Confirmation Tomorrow
The drunk, sexual abuser, and malfeasant who's willing to use our troops against U.S. citizens wants to be Secretary of Defense.
The former “Fox & Friends” weekend host and Army National Guard combat veteran goes before the Senate Armed Services Committee tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. Eastern time. Some senators (thankfully) have questioned his fitness for the role amid allegations of excessive drinking and sexual misconduct. The Pentagon chief’s authority over the U.S. military is second only to that of the president’s.
Hegseth has already signalled a willingness to use the U.S. Army against U.S. civilians to enforce Trump and conservative aims and says police and soldiers will “have to make a choice.” He doesn’t like gays in the military, any form of DEI, and women in the military. He promises to stop drinking if he is confirmed. And that’s drinking under the table.
The bottom line is that Hegseth will use the U.S. military any way Donald Trump or (pretty soon) J.D. Vance tells him to use it.

There’s a chart that that gives the last digits of their phone number. Precede that with (202)22 … then their phone extension given as x-xxxx.
This afternoon and over the rest of this week is the best time to do this.
This guy is psychologically unqualified for this position. He’s a drunk. He abuses women. And he has a manosphere / January 6th type of narcissistic attitude that it’s the male conservative way of the highway. He must absolutely NOT be confirmed.
We should have a list of those Democrats likely to vote for him and call them.
Also a list of Republicans on the fence and call them.
Thank you for your excellent reporting. The smallpox picture you posted should be circulating in the media and on TV! No one would support RFK after seeing that!
Republicans would approve charles Manson? After all their president is a rapist, extortionist, business cheat, insurrectionist, etc. the approval is a farce. No behavior is too low for republicans
