The greasy fool couldn't/wouldn't answer a single question Kaine asked.

"apologize for his colleague.

I don’t think he would throw punches like that if he didn’t know that a lot of R’s in that chamber share his concerns.

was Hegseth playing the martyr, "patriot, Iraq War veteran, victim, blah blah". Sickening.

If you want to skip that and get to the good stuff though, Tim Kaine did a good job. Elizabeth Warren too.

I haven't watched the whole thing (yet), but I've seen clips of each of those 3 raking Pigseth over the coals, and it was glorious.

Unfortunately, the Repugs may vote him in anyway, but I'm proud of our people for fighting the good fight!

Elizabeth Warren had some good moments too.

Tim Kaine Shows No Mercy Grilling Pete Hegseth About Past Cheating And Accusations

He said in November that US military “should not have women in combat roles."
Dumb ass.
Tell that to 1st Lt. Mackenzie Corcoran, a triple-tab Soldier having completed all requirements for 1) Ranger, 2) Sapper, and 3) Jungle Warfare.
Tell that to the 135 women who successfully completed Army Ranger training.
Tell that to Sen Tammy Duckworth, who's sitting right in front of you.
Who would I want in the foxhole with me? One of the women abovementioned?
Or some hungover sumbitch?
Go home Petey. Go back to Faux News. Just go away.

End the ability of female soldiers to attend Ranger School, the Special Forces selection process and BUD/S as part of his first actions. He would also strip the tabs of females who have completed these courses and rescind any orders associated with them.

to make quotas.
He is such a POS!

YES INDEED

Maj Lisa Jaster was 37 and a Mother of two, when she finished Ranger training.
Go toughen up, Petey. Then you can come back to ask to lead the Maj Jasters of the Military.
You're a Poser. You're an alcoholic Poser.

No matter how crazy, irresponsible, dangerous or murderous. End of story. He has no experience to draw on. He has no expertise in defense matters.

I was hoping someone would post these once they were available.

You know, like the people have installed on their cars when convicted of a DUI.

I mean, the excessive drinking is only one negative factor about this complete POS.

But if he concedes to (theoretical) BAC testing, you're OK with him otherwise??

Please say no...

Then they could lock him out of his office.

She seemed genuinely pissed off that she had to be there dealing with such a lightweight. She asked him to name the countries that are members of ASEAN and he couldn't name any, but he did name a number of countries that aren't members. She told him that someone involved in this kind of hearing should probably be better prepared, lol.

That's a story first broken by FOX news.

It was used by a senator in questioning Peter Hegseth.

Would it surprise you to know that story was bullshit?

I can't watch the hearing live, due to BP.
But I can watch bits which are posted in threads like this.

...made an ass of himself. I'm embarrassed to think he's the best my state could do.

... because this guy is now a complete wacko. We need to find out the back story on him.

That stroke (or whatever it REALLY was) really did him in.

He will not get a 2nd term. But in the meantime, the Senate Dem caucus cannot rely on him.

I served 28 years, 1967-1995, including a tour in the bush in Vietnam.

Hegseth is trash. I will not go into the details of his background, all that is public knowledge. He would have made a great Jan 6 rioter -- tattooed up and down his arms and chest, everything is about waving the flag, everything is about "lethality" and other buzzwords. Then there's his drinking.

He's a typical chest-thumping, look-at-me-I'm-a-tough-guy HOOAH RAH RAH RAH THUMP MY CHEST.

I've talked with a couple of other old soldiers in my neighborhood. They are like me -- Hegseth is a piece of shit. Perfect Trump nominee.

yes INDEED

Never mind. IronLionZion has the clip in reply #10.

or ANY Republican Politician's wife or husband, including Melania.

THEY JUST DON'T CARE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only about the money, the fame, and the cushy lifestyle............

It has been well established, their spouses don't care, even if their fling is with someone in early teens, a prostitute,....or of the same sex......

Asked a question and he rambled about negotiating submarines in Australia in August?

He was neither in the military or government in August, but trumpy dumpy had showed the Australian billionaire the classified docs about the subs for money....did he just admit to espionage, Logan act violations, and working with trump and forgien governments before trump was elected?!
Link of Senator Duckworth at hearing with Hegseth...4:34 minute...he says he negiotiated subs with Australia!?
