On Tuesday, Donald Trump announced that he had picked Pete Hegseth to get his secretary of Defense, and, as you could have guessed, the remaining is flipping out about it.

” A’ Fox &, Friends ‘ weekend co-host is not qualified to be the secretary of Defense”, whined Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass. ). The Senate section for military personnel is led by me. My three boys were uniformed for the entire time. Appreciation is shown to each and every service member. Donald Trump’s get may make us less healthy and must be rejected”.
CNN reacted to the news Tuesday night. Hegseth’s open position against people in battle roles and his effect on Trump’s choice to forgive Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher were discussed by panelists, making him a controversial choice.
Carl Bernstein, a political analyst, claimed that Trump’s selection of Hegseth as the defense secretary and additional choices he’s made so much reflects his plan to end progressive policies that date back to the New Deal. He suggested that Trump’s choices reflect a more radical ideological change, focusing on his commitment to his perception.
” We are in a new position, but it is a dangerous, critical position. And all of these visits “fit along” to reverse this lineage that dates to Roosevelt, according to Bernstein.  ,
Scott Jennings mounted a strong defense of Pete Hegseth’s choice to lead the Pentagon, hard critics who dismiss the choose according to Hegseth’s lack of Washington experience.  ,

Jennings feigned the authority of the Pentagon’s present command and the manner in which the security situation has been operating for the past few years, and he wailed against it. he asked. ” I mean, from the Afghanistan handover, which was an extraordinary crisis for which no some was held responsible…. we’ve had detective balloons flying over the United States. As a publicity stunt, we constructed a$ 300 million pier that resulted in the death of an American service member.

” I’d suggest I’ve had just about enough of the so-called officials running the Defense Department. Before Bernstein interrupted him, he said,” I believe we ought to give Pete Hegseth a prospect.”
Of course, Jennings was n’t done. The only criticism of him is that he is not the anticipated Washington pull, he claims. And I just want to point out that the British individuals simply voted against the expected Washington choice.
He argued it’s time to provide Hegseth a chance, pointing to his twenty years of service in both Iraq and Afghanistan, his two Bronze Stars, and his knowledge at Princeton and Harvard. ” Yes, he’s on TV, but so were the rest of us”, he pointed out. ” And I think he ought to be given a opportunity”.

Jennings responded when Abby Phillip criticized him by pointing out that many recent protection errors were the result of human rather than military decisions, saying that” the civilian administration made choices, and then the persons they put in charge of the Pentagon carried it out, and it was all pretty much a devastation.” He added that the new government’s decision to appoint “non-insiders” is a direct answer to these failures, underscoring that while Hegseth would still have to “prove his knowledge of how to do this work” to Senate Republicans,” we ought to give this man a opportunity”.
HOLY SMOKES: @ScottJenningsKY just scorched earth on CNN panel and Carl Bernstein in defense of Pete Hegseth.
