Hegseth on Damage Control Tour

Oops.

“This is the kind of thing that gets people killed,… When you are talking about the time of launch of an aircraft carrier, what type of airplanes, including beyond that MQ-9s, Tomahawk missiles, time over target, these are the most sensitive pieces of information that any military has an impending strike where you’re having service members being put in harm’s way.” ~Senator Mark Kelly, U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence

Hegseth’s latest wife, a Fox television producer.
Pete Hegseth worked on air for Fox News.

How is he selling himself? Let’s watch:

Pete Hegseth is determined to reshape his public image. Here, he attempts to appear productive by calling for volunteers to leave before proceeding with layoffs at the Department of Defense. The irony is that he needs to go. Both Republicans and Democrats have urged him to resign because of his poor job performance, viewing him as a national security risk.

This is a poser

Business Insider has published a pro-Hegseth report; look at crapulous Ken, dressed like a casual GI Joe.

This is a publicity tour.

This is nepotism.

Informal Pete Hegseth looks so… I don’t know, could he be sober?

Again, this is a poser

The attempt to govern the narrative is something former Fox News Host, drunk Ken, is familiar with.

Pay no attention to that drunk behind the curtain!

How can the administration distract the media to from the Hegseth security breach that could have resulted in disaster, including the death of military personnel? Hmm…

Trump kept the media in a frenzy this weekend, helping Hegseth distract us. The bullshit is knee-deep. He made threats to Greenland, “we will get Greenland.”

Vance went to Greenland and was met by the American military who have been there for years, keeping peace.

The locals ignored him. Aside from a sign that said, “Yankee go home” they could have been invisible.

HE IS LYING

NBC News has proven once again that they will report Trump’s statements as if they are facts. “Trump is very angry at Putin for not cooperating with ceasefire agreement.” No, he is not. This is theater.

Trump is not negotiating for Ukraine. He will help the Kremlin’s murderous ambitions. Putin owns Trump. It also serves his love of manipulating the media and using the press to round up the sheep who have strayed from his support. He’s also talking about a third term as president. This is a distraction that BBC reported! Where the hell am I supposed to find authentic news, if not in Britain?

We still have Jazeera.  

Like he did in 2016, Trump is dismantling the Environmental Protection Agency EPA – he’s offering coal-fired power plants and other industrial polluters a chance for exemptions from requirements to reduce emissions of toxic chemicals such as mercury, arsenic and benzene.

Internet trolls are pushing this as a win for consumers: “Yay! Prices will come down without all the government interference.” 

Listen, prices will not decline, nor will savings go toward pay raises for the little guy. Your health will be at risk so manufacturers’ bigger profits. Corporation will pocket money saved.

EPA offers industrial polluters a way to avoid rules on mercury, arsenic and other toxic chemicals

Propaganda works. Are any of you still fooled?

  1. And the other guy who says the ‘Atlantic’ reporters number got ‘sucked into his phone.” Musk giving out money to voters in Wisconsin. While wearing a block of cheese on his head. This is the kind of dumbassery we expected? Or others hoped for when they voted for Trump? This is so much FUBAR.

    1. I don’t know whether it’s drugs or genetics, but Elon has no self awareness. Every interview he does to gain sympathy ends with him threatening the welfare of a new group. I’m sure in the old days, everyone kissed his ring because of the way he marketed himself. But now he universally hated. “I haven’t done anything wrong. It’s so unfair.”
      He really belongs on Mars.
      My gut feeling is that he’s going to lose everything because of his political games, but unfortunately things don’t turn out like they should.

      1. I have to admit that I do sit and smile while watching his Tesla’s burn like an out-of-control fire.
