He was the valedictorian from Forrest lake Area High School. He has a BA in politics from Princeton and a Masters in public policy from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. He'll do a good job as Sec Def.

I'm not suffering, dipshit.
It just makes more discussion sense to collate cabinet picks rather than a new thread for each. Especially because you are all in some sort of competition of breaking new cabinet picks first....which is so Twitter.

I don’t deliberately start duplicate threads or feed duplicates. Pretty sure this was the first thread on DefSec.

I am just seeing two and three threads every time a new pick is named.
At least for a non-bb, a single thread works.

He knocked up one of the Fox producers while was married to his first wife.
Definitely a Trump guy.
But did he fuck any porn stars while his mistress was pregnant? The American people want to know.

Are you not entertained?
This celebrity has "Deux Vult" ("God wills it") and a Jerusalem Cross across his chest.
"Deux Vult" was the battle cry of the first Crusade on Jerusalem.
Hegspeth has been married three times since 2010, and has fathered three children and one bastard (a child he fathered out of wedlock by his Fox executive producer while married to his second wife). He later married the producer.

LOL. Oh dear. Our new SoD might not be a fat ex-General or an obese cross-dresser or a noodle-armed jerkoff? We might actually have an SoD that represents strength?
DEUS VULT!!!! Holy Fuck. Is this the start of a new Golden Age? Are we back? We can't possibly be this back.
It doesn't get any more based than this. I'm sold! We are so fucking back!!!!!!!
AND: Newly appointed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on reforming US military leadership: Anyone "involved in the woke sh*t has got to go...you have to reestablish that trust by putting in no-nonsense warfighters in those positions who aren't going to cater to the socially correct garbage."
HEGSETH: There's a chance to course correct it, but, it would take the new a new Trump administration going after it really hard.
RYAN: How would they correct it? Well, first of all, you got a fire.
HEGSETH: "You've got to fire the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and obviously, to bring in a new Secretary of Defense, but any General that was involved, General, Admiral, whatever that was involved in any of the DEI woke sh*t has got to go."
"Either you're in for war fighting and that's it. That's the only litmus test we care about. You got to get DEI and CRT out of military academies. You're not training young officers to be baptized in this type of thinking. And then, you know, whatever the standards, whatever the combat standards were, say, and, I don't know, 1995, let's just make those the standards. And as far as recruiting to hire the guy that, you know, did Top Gun Maverick and create some real ads that motivate people to want to serve."
"And there's lots of other ways in which you could identify who gets promoted and what. But there's an ethos change, I mean, there's a reason we're not, people don't want to serve because they don't trust that their senior leaders are going to have their best interest in mind in combat."
"I know there were mistakes made on our tours all over the place. But I, at least for the most part, had a sense that my senior leaders were committed to the completion of the mission for the right reasons, and maybe there were strategic differences and all that other stuff. And it wasn't always perfect, but now that trust is broken. And you have to reestablish that trust by by putting in no nonsense warfighters in those positions who aren't going to cater to the socially correct garbage."
The remarks were made in an episode of The Shawn Ryan Show released November 7
THIS is our new Secretary of Defense. Based! And Fuck the Establishment. Four years and we'll have back our real military. Not the chickenshit woke rabbits.

Godwin has some thoughts…
https://www.commondreams.org/news/godwins-law-trump
From the article:
“The creator of Godwin's Law—an adage that says Adolf Hitler comparisons become increasingly likely as Internet arguments drag on—argued in a Washington Postop-ed Thursday that his rule in no way discredits efforts to draw parallels between the Nazi dictator and former President Donald Trump.
"Those of us who hope to preserve our democratic institutions need to underscore the resemblance before we enter the twilight of American democracy," wrote attorney and author Mike Godwin. "And that's why Godwin's Law isn't violated—or confirmed—by the Biden reelection campaign's criticism of Trump's increasingly unsubtle messaging. We had the luxury of deriving humor from Hitler and Nazi comparisons when doing so was almost always hyperbole. It's not a luxury we can afford anymore."
On Wednesday, President Joe Biden's 2024 reelection campaign posted to social media a graphic likening Trump's recent rhetoric—including his statement that immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our country"—to Hitler's and arguing that the similarities are "not a coincidence."
