A FBI background check on Hegseth, Kavanaugh style

[theHawk]

It's Hegseth's responsibility to prove that he is qualified, not ours to prove that he is not qualified.

Same goes to every nomination.

Pretty evident he is qualified for the job. It’s on the deranged lefties to prove he isn’t.

 

[Hum Dinger]

Do you need to be a high-speed-low-drag four star faggot to be honest, knowledgeable, and professional?

Where's your proof that Hegseth isn't honest, knowledgeable, and professional?

Put up or STFU.

Any nominee must prove that they are qualified. The burden of proof lies with Hegseth.

The fact that you think people's sexuality is a major concern for the U.S. military, proves that you have no understanding of the U.S. Military.

 

[Oddball]

Hegseth is a decorated military combat veteran. But the problem the left has with them is that he will call for accountability from the current brass. And they can't have that.

That and he has had real dirt and blood on his boots, unlike the high-speed-low-drag four star faggots currently infesting the upper echelons of the Pentagon.

Focus trumples, focus. Why hasn't trump allowed for a thorough background check of Hegseth just as he did with Schlitz Kavanaugh?

So you're under the impression Trump prevented a thorough check by the FBI? The same folks that raided his house? How fricken stupid can you get.

No, YOU are the one saying he is unqualified, on nothing more substantive than YOUR say-so.

I have plenty of first-hand knowledge of the military...Was in SAC in the Cold War.

So put up or STFU.

 

[Rawley]

So you make the claim that he's unqualified but are unable to articulate what qualifications are required.

Evidently, never having appeared on Fox is at the top of the list.

 

[berg80]

There are no qualifications needed for any of the jobs being filled.

That belief explains your vote for trump.

Adolf Hitler was a "decorated military combat veteran". He proved to be a disaster of a military leader for the German people. The German Generals HATED taking orders from him - he didn't know what he was doing.

Please try not to be dumb as a Nazi. The Nazis destroyed Germany. Apparently, you're trying to do the same to the U.S.

WTF are you saying Hegseth is now "just like Hitler"?

 

[berg80]

Am afraid that lower standards set by both party's for a very long time has come to pass.

False equivalence.

It's all they have

Biden and Wray and Garland are in charge of the FBI now, not President Trump, Pam Bondi and.Kash Patel.

If you are dissatisfied with insufficient political witchhunts being conducted against Hegseth, or Kavanaugh, that's where your beef lies.

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.

Godwin: You lose.

No, it's the senate's job to ask questions and hear his answers to those questions, no matter what they are. There are no qualifications needed for any of the jobs being filled. Go look it up! I posted it back after he was put up by Trump.

It's up to the Senate to determine if he's qualified. It's up to Hegseth to prove that he is.

It's also up to each Senator to determine, in their own mind, what those qualifications are.

If a Senator decides that destroying the U.S. Military is what qualifies him, then they'll probably vote in favor of his nomination.

 

[Hum Dinger]

You're the one that asserted that being a ''decorated combat veteran" qualifies a person to be Sec. of Defense.

I just cited a well-known example that proved you wrong. Dead wrong.

Your pain brings us joy

I know.

And I wish you health & happiness.

I am listening, and all the smears against Hegselth are anonymous and unsourced....Not one accuser has come forth and revealed themselves.

At least the scum trying to burn Kavanaugh down came up with Blasey Ford and Sweatnick.

I don't know how much you know about people and personalities in general but I do know a lot about that and the responses from Hegseth have not been professional or addressing the issues. The questions asked of him have been professional, full of details and addressing the issues,

Having said that and specifically addressing your statement about anonymous and unsourced, here is a quote from Hegseth's own mother:

“I have no respect for a man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around and uses women for his own power and ego,” Hegseth’s mother wrote to him. “You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains and embarrasses me to say that, but it’s the sad, sad truth.” The email – which Hegseth’s mother later disavowed – appears to have come around the time of the dissolution of Hegseth’s second marriage; during Hegseth’s first marriage, according to a new report by Vanity Fair, he confessed to no fewer than five affairs.
