I think I can honestly say, I dislike just about every person (on each side) that I've heard ask questions so far. The grandstanding is so much worse it seems these days.
Pete Hegseth hearing
- Thread starter FAUlty Gator
- Start date
Someone better be grandstanding against the alcoholic, inexperienced, fox opinionist guest, with ties to Peter Thiel and VA cutting goals.
Well good. They should do more. Civility and decorum are dead, elections have consequences.
Pretty sure hirono is drunk af lol she's slurring like crazy
Funny listening to all these Pete Buttigeig supporters talking about having enough experience for a job.
Duckworth is a true warrior on many levels
At least his executive experience was more than a couple dozen employees. Most of which he didn’t try to have sex with.
Both Pete’s should be in communication roles. Not Cabinet level positions.

Tim Kaine, of all people, handed Hegseth his ass.
(paraphrasing) You took an oath in your marriages, right? And then cheated on your first wife with your second wife, and cheated on your second wife with a woman 2 months after she had your child.
Oaths aren't really a big thing for Drunk Pete.

From what I saw Hegseth dodged the question about using military force on US citizens and nearly cried when his many affairs were brought up.
Seems like a perfect fit for the Trump cabinet
Seems like a perfect fit for the Trump cabinet
Buttigieg was the mayor of a city of 100,000+, with 1,000 municipal employees, and a budget north of $350M.
I get that you’re attempting (poorly) to both sides the shit out of this, but being disingenuous in your arguments ain’t gonna help you.
His experience is probably the least of the concerns for me.
Not both sidesing anything. Hypocrites who supported a mayor of South Bend Indiana to be the POTUS are acting as if it's some giant leap to support this appointment. Refusing to overlook exactly what they had to overlook to support Mayor Pete.
That said, I would not vote to confirm Hegseth either. It's such a silly choice and done 100% to troll the Dems by Dopey.
He’s going to hide behind his Christianity a lot.
Our current secretary of defense holds $3 million dollars worth of Raytheon stock. No wonder he loves sending weapons to Ukraine and having taxpayers replenish them with fresh items from Raytheon.

Wrong yet again. But this is true:
It bears mentioning that Mark Esper, who served as former President Donald Trump’s secretary of defense, served as Raytheon’s vice president of government relations directly before his confirmation. When asked by Warren during his confirmation hearing if he would recuse himself from decisions involving Raytheon, he refused.
So, if I'm reading all of this right, it sounds like the committee democrats kept their powder, and their martinis, dry.

FAU makes literally the most pathetic false equivalency claims I've ever seen. It's almost like he is purposely trying to look like a dumbass. For his sake, I hope that's true.
the lying and projection from republicans is terrifying.
Talk about a DEI hire. Dude has 0 experience yet gets picked for being a white Fox News anchor.
Projection and an absolute unfit 🤡

Why do you low life scum suckers think being a liar is a good thing to be?
They should be. You should be also, if you weren't such an anti-American, fascist, maga scum.
This isn’t partisan at all. Many of the Dems voted in favor of trumps first cabinet. This guy is just woefully unqualified. Plus you know the whole alcoholic sexual assaulter thing.
Last I checked, Pete wasn't getting drunk on the job. But I could be wrong.
He’d be perfect for a communications role. Anything that requires responsibilities. I’d have a difficult time hiring him for.
