Pete Hegseth: “I don’t feel the need to respond to CNN.”
Good for him, the Misinformation Media is completely irrelevant now.
The previous question helps illustrate why when they have the nerve to ask Pete if gay people should be allowed to serve in the military?
They are not… pic.twitter.com/SNx2PwvT1O

This guy is pro-Israel to the max, but other than that, you can understand why so many people are mad about him being picked.
Well, frankly, the complaint that a soldier who became a Fox News host is not qualified to run the Department of Defense is valid. Aside from government experience, someone would need to be a CEO to understand the dynamics of running an organization that employs tens of thousands of people, as a basic matter.
However, he’s also questioning some of the common wisdom of the elite, including asking what exactly faggots are doing in the military.
Policies allowing out gay people to serve in the US military have been denounced as part of a “Marxist” agenda aimed at prioritising social justice above combat-readiness by Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s embattled defence secretary pick.The assertion was among many contentious “anti-woke” views expressed in Hegseth’s latest book, The War on Warriors, published this year, in which he lambasted a previous policy – known as don’t ask, don’t tell (DADT) – that tolerated gay service members as long as they did not disclose their sexual orientation, while also excoriating its repeal.
DADT was introduced as a compromise during Bill Clinton’s presidency in 1993 to allow lesbians and gay men to serve in the military in the face of opposition from senior commanders. The policy overturned a previous blanket ban that had been in place since the second world war.
It was repealed in 2011 during the presidency of Barack Obama following numerous complaints of discrimination resulting from the dishonourable discharges of armed service personnel after their sexuality had come to light.
Hegseth – whose nomination has become imperilled following allegations of drunkenness, sexual misconduct and financial mismanagement – has denounced DADT as the start of ideological “tinkering” with the armed forces for social justice ends, CNN reported .
Well, the drunkenness, sexual misconduct, and financial mismanagement are actually the highlights. Everyone in the government should be a drunken rapist gambler who hates fags.
But he has also voiced regret over its repeal, calling it “a breach in the wire” that opened the path to a wider ideological and cultural change in the armed forces.Recalling how he was getting ready to deploy to Afghanistan when the policy was annulled, he wrote: “Our commander briefed the unit, peppered with a few jokes. You know, infantry stuff.
“We mostly laughed it off and moved on. America was at war. Gays and lesbians were already serving in the military. I had seen the enemy with my own eyes. We needed everybody.”
He now says that inclusive and tolerant attitude was a mistake, suggesting it paved the way for admitting transgender people into the military and allowing women to serve in combat roles, from which they were barred until a 2013 reform.
…
Hegseth’s aversion to gay people in the military and women in combat was expressed before Trump nominated him for a cabinet position that would give him decision-making power over both policies.
These views really aren’t particularly relevant. They are a point of attack by the Democrats, but it doesn’t really even matter.
All soldiers other than the general-tier (who are all homosexuals themselves) are against homosexuals in the military, and this general opinion is going to become more pronounced as the military gets browner.
What matters are Hegseth’s views on Jews and Israel, which are plenty sufficiently extreme.
This nigga been talking about the “third temple” and shit.
