A FBI background check on Hegseth, Kavanaugh style

Getting DEI out of the military will save the military. We need to get back to competency based advancement instead of advancement based on who someone is.

We have the most competent and capable military that has ever existed - by far. It does not need to be 'saved'.

Your goal is to destroy the cohesiveness of the U.S. Military and with it, the U.S. military itself.

Just what Putin wants.

You are such a dup!
 
I'd probably be better than Hegseth!

I wouldn't try to make any major changes or institute my own policies.

I'd just do what the Generals recommended.
Hegseth's primary qualification is fealty to Dotard. Beyond that the only job he could get hired to do is lie on Faux. And only on weekends.

So, let's try an honesty check Berg....Do you believe that a President is entitled to have his own people in positions of power in DC?
 
You lied. That's just what you people do.
So you're saying she notified the Police? You're really going with that?

Fk dude, she basically said she enjoyed whatever she was claiming, while no one could support her claim. That there is some really screwed up stuff of a nutjob.

let me realign your thought here a bit, anyone Trump would have named, which is being played out on tv right now, is unwanted due to some TDS of Trump doesn't have a right. Let's just leave it there with what you really think.
 
Who is saying we should say no to woman who meet the necessary standards for combat? Pete isn’t saying that. He is saying that the current standards have been lowered or in some cases there is a second set of standards for the same change for men and women. That should not be the case and that is what Pete wants to change. He is absolutely correct.
Thank you for repeating my point. Greatly appreciated.
 
Unqualified women should not be in combat. Why do you have a problem if they are qualified?
it depends on the type of weaponry .. a female pilot dropping bombs is much different than a woman lugging a machine gun and facing a situation where she may have to literally carry a wounded soldier from the battle field .. ground pounders should be men because of the physical strength required for the job .. but if a woman wants to drive a tank or pilot an aircraft its different .. it just is ..
 
So, a black woman who has a law degree, years of experience as a prosecutor and as VP, is an 'unqualified' DEI hire, but a white male news commentator with no substantial command or administrative experience is qualified to be Sec. of Defense?

Perhaps your anti-DEI sentiments are just plain racism.

You can't stomach the fact that non-white people are achieving while most white males are depending on mommy & daddy's money and connections.

BTW - I'm a white male and I've seen how most of my fellow white males of my generation have grown into non-achieving spoiled brats.

That's why they so desperately want the U.S. to become a fascist state - they want everything in life to be determined by birth right and inheritance.
I judge people by their competence, Hum Dinger. How would you rate Kamala Harris's performance as Vice President? It's obvious she was a DEI hire. Biden promised James Clyburn that he would name a black female as his VP in return for Clyburn's help getting him nominated. Was Kamala qualified to be Vice President? I would posit that Harris was the poster child for DEI failure.

As for you and your fellow white males of your generation? If you've grown into non-achieving spoiled brats then you have yourself and probably your parents to blame! The opportunity was there...you were simply too lazy to take advantage.

But if she can do the job, why not let her? That is the question!

How can we have "the most competent and capable military that has ever existed - by far" when our military branches are being forced to accept people into the military that would have been unacceptable before?

If you don't like your orange god being compared to Hitler, then support someone that doesn't sound and act like Hitler.

If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and looks like a duck, I'm calling it a duck.

If you had a brain, you would too!
He's not my "orange god" and your Godwin card playing is beyond banal.

Grow the fuck up, punk.

It's really kind of a moot point. There are very very, few women who can actually meet a legitimate standard required for combat. Despite what you may see on TV, even exceptionally strong women are typically not as strong as the average man. I wasn't in the military, but I can assure you that when I was in my early to mid-20s, I would have pummeled the vast majority of military women in hand to hand combat, and was faster and stronger.
 
Less than six weeks ago, Ms. Ernst, a veteran with a reputation for being a principled leader on matters of sexual assault and the military, had voiced reservations about Mr. Hegseth.

But Mr. Trump’s hard-line backers paid for ads in Ms. Ernst’s home state, questioned her Republican bona fides on social media and even threatened to run primary challenges against her in 2026 to push her toward backing Mr. Hegseth as the nominee.

Several hours after the hearing ended, she announced her support for him on WHO Newsradio 1040, a radio station in Des Moines.


That is what succumbing to political pressure to save your job looks like. The entire Repub senate caucus has abdicated its responsibility to the country.
Such are the ravings of the loopy conspiracy theorist.
