A FBI background check on Hegseth, Kavanaugh style

[DBA]

Well, not only do we have to hold the felonious sexual abuser incoming President to lower standards across the board, we have to do the same for anyone he picks for critical positions.

That's just where we are now.

Or he could have just nominated bone-headed, DEI, leftist children to run the country like Biden. Obviously that is your preference.

 

[The Duke]

Whataboutisms regarding Harris, an obvious deflection, don't make Hegseth qualified to run the DoD. Why not do a thorough background check?

Why do one if that's whom the president chooses?

 

[Rawley]

Well, not only do we have to hold the felonious sexual abuser incoming President to lower standards across the board, we have to do the same for anyone he picks for critical positions.

That's just where we are now.

Your pain brings us joy

 

[Billiejeens]

All of trump's nominees should be confirmed.

Elections have consequences

 

[berg80]

Of course, Trump wants lower standards.
Meaning, he wants none.

Trump may start his second term with a stunning power grab​

Nov 16, 2024 — Could Trump force the Senate into recess — and then appoint whoever he wanted to the government?

The standard applied to trump couldn't be any lower. A liar, a cheat, a felon, a traitor, a thief, a sexual abuser.

 

[berg80]

Why do one if that's whom the president chooses?

Your subservience to a liar, a cheat, a felon, a traitor, a thief, and a serial sexual abuser is now complete.

Hegseth greatest allies in getting this nomination are the SJWs that control the MSM.

They keep focusing on Hegseth's alleged sexual harassment and excessive drinking.

They eclipse the only question that should be considered: "Is Hegseth qualified for this job?"

They seem too dumb to realize that the people that will determine his nomination have almost all engaged in sexual harassment and excessive drinking. They couldn't give a rat's ass if Hegseth has done the same.

They tried this BS with Kavanaugh and it totally failed.

These SJWs are the cause for the repeated failures of the Democratic party to gain control in Washington.

They are the opposition that the Republicans love to have!

Democrats Say F.B.I. Did Not Interview Critical Witnesses About Pete Hegseth​

Senate Democrats on Monday said that an F.B.I. background check on Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald J. Trump’s pick to lead the Pentagon, omitted key details on major allegations against him, in part because it did not include interviews with critical witnesses.

One missed opportunity came when the bureau did not interview one of Mr. Hegseth’s ex-wives before its findings were presented to senators last week, according to people familiar with the bureau’s investigation.

“My understanding is that some of them would like to be contacted by the F.B.I. investigative team, or the vetters, and they have not been talked to,” Ms. Duckworth added in the MSNBC interview.

A spokeswoman for the F.B.I. declined to comment.

Mr. Trump's transition team commissioned the F.B.I. background check on Mr. Hegseth last month after initially floating the idea of hiring private contractors to look into the president-elect’s cabinet picks. As the client, presidential transition teams are traditionally able to set the parameters for background checks into cabinet picks, and potentially dictate which witnesses are interviewed and what questions are asked. The transition team’s directions to the F.B.I. for its investigation of Mr. Hegseth are unknown.

The bureau did not interview an ex-wife of President-elect Donald J. Trump’s pick for defense secretary before the findings on his background check were presented to senators.

Report says Trump White House obstructed FBI probe into allegations against Kavanaugh

The Senate report is a damning rebuke to Trump’s claim he gave the FBI “free rein” to investigate sexual misconduct allegations against Brett Kavanaugh.

For her part, Sen. Duckworth has noted Dems were not given the same access to Hegseth as Repubs prior to today's hearing.

Duckworth: Trump’s Pentagon pick has less experience than Applebee’s manager​

Duckworth held the press call to lay out her concerns about Trump’s nominee, insisting that her objections to Hegseth aren’t motivated by politics but by what his confirmation would mean for national security.

She complained that Sen. Jack Reed (R.I.), the ranking Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, will likely be the only Senate Democrat who will meet with Hegseth before his hearing.
Duckworth also noted that rank-and-file Democrats on the Armed Services panel may not have a chance to fully review the FBI background check on the nominee, an investigation Democrats believe will be critical to assess a sexual assault allegation from 2017 and alleged mismanagement of Concerned Veterans for America (CVA), an advocacy group.

Can anyone think of a reason why trump's transition team would limit the scope of Hegseth's background check as his WH limited the scope of Kavanaugh's? Are they trying to hide his lack of qualifications for the job, his heavy drinking, his abuse of women, his mismanagement of funds for the partisan vets organizations he ran, the reasons he was let go by them, or his bizarre statements on everything from women to religion?

Hegseth is going to get confirmed.

SUCK ON IT!

 

[Rawley]

You mean a disgusting smear job like the one they did on Kavanaugh? People are getting sick of the Left's shit, Berg! They want the military fixed.

I fully expect the DEmocrats to call Christine Blasey Ford to testify against Hegseth.

WTF is "Kavanagh style"????????
Does that mean you're going to drag out some broad and cry RAPE again????
You really are a PIECE OF SHIT, Stalinberg.
And, you're a PUSSY because you have half the forum ON IGNORE.
GFY

Still can't lose the sad tired lefty tropes that lost you the election.

That's fine if they do that, but..whatever. It's time to see where we go from here.

 

[Rawley]

All you have is the word of a very partisan loon that Biden's FBI did a shitty job. You should bring that up with your cult leaders.

"Could you be a bigger fucking dope" is supposed to be a rhetorical question, not a challenge to be surmounted.

 

[Billiejeens]

Makes sense.

 

[Marener]

So you would prefer he pick a manifestly unqualified person like Kamala, who couldn’t do anything other than read notes prepared by someone else?

Hegseth is unqualified and overall just a bad person.

 

[Hum Dinger]

Hegseth is going to get confirmed.

SUCK ON IT!

Doubtful. Hegseth seems grossly unqualified for the job.

There are still enough patriotic Republican Senators that will vote against him based on his lack of qualifications.

National Defense trumps Trump's political games.

Hegseth is unqualified and overall just a bad person.

Says who?

Over 500 Veterans Support Trump’s DOJ Pick, March on Day of Confirmation -

The American military stands at a crossroads. For years, our armed forces have faced a barrage of social experiments and misguided priorities from Pentagon bureaucrats who wouldn’t know a foxhole from a coffee shop.

Combat readiness has taken a back seat to diversity quotas. Our warriors watch in frustration as the world’s greatest fighting force drowns in paperwork. Meanwhile, China builds its military. Russia flexes its muscles. Yet the Pentagon seems more focused on social experiments than combat effectiveness.

But now, a revolution is brewing within the ranks. In an unprecedented display of unity, hundreds of America’s most elite warriors are about to deliver a thundering message to Washington. The catalyst? A combat veteran nominated to lead the Pentagon who actually knows what victory means.

Warriors Rally to Defend America First​

Five hundred Navy SEALs, veterans, and military supporters are mobilizing for a historic march through Washington D.C. They’re backing Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing on Tuesday.
