This nomination is as bad as Kristi Noem as Head Of Homeland Security
Our an orange baffoon as president.....
Are we still have to deal with Kash Patel. God help us.

I thought you passed strung out , no teeth and about 80lbs
Glad you recovered enough to meltdown all over again on YT😂
All these liberal tears makes me so happy 😁 crybabies
yeah. Mayorkas was the best one we've ever had. A mall cop could do a better job than him. Drones, spy balloons, 10 million illegals.. great job.
Something tells me McConnell really loathes Trump 😂😂
That's no secret. Mc Connell is an old establishment RINO who's made a lot of money out of his service.
you can see it on his face, in his eyes - he hates what he has done to the party.
too bad he didn't stand up to him when it was important, before he got momentum and enough support to do... this.
He didn't spoken to him once in the 3.5 years after he left office.
Whats really good is most RINOS will be gone soon..how did it play out for LIZ chaney an her daddys warmongering treasure trove of death? :)
@@jerryrollins512 But not nearly as much as trump will make.
If only ALL of the GOP would stand against Mr. Chump at the same time. If only...
we just need enough to find their morals and scruples and decide they will work with the democrats ... we can still form a moral majority. i believe that there are still some republicans left with a conscience, and deep down they know what is right. i just hope they can find the courage to do so.
Mitch McConnell you led us to this 💩 hole too late to try and turn back now!!
Now he’s on your side! 😂
Way to expose YOURSELF as useless to the whole world 👏
@@pnorris1982 no... He's Spit Out!
It is never to late to choose to do differently.
We can not tell what may happen if he tries even at this late date to stand up against the monster he helped create.
DUI hire
That would be Kammy
@@winstonsmith6607 You would be upset.
Dumb, Unintelligent and Idiotic
Oh funny. Let's make fun of alcoholism.
He was on the battlefield while you were at McDonald’s.
These are the consequences of an uninformed and misinformed electorate, which is probably the point.
He’s got the face of someone who is frequently soused. Scary.
It's not Republican at all; that ship has sailed.
The America party 🎉
Republican and Democrat leaders are one in the same. Maga movement is for the people.
The Hamburglar 🤡🍟
the just can't seem to say ''Nationalist''
Oh, it’s Republican alright. That’s EXACTLY what it is.
Here's the beginning of America 's downfall, however, this guy will not last long he's going to mess up badly
Whatever happened to the land of the brave?
"Brave" became equated to "big mouthed bullying".
This is sick
Congress is not the nursing home
Keep paying those high grocery prices maga
This comment makes no sense. Inflation averaged 1.5% under trumps first term and will be no more than 2-2.5% in second term and many prices will decrease. Let us adults show you how it’s done.
@@pnorris1982 Unfamiliar with tariffs? Thank goodness Donald's clothing line and Ivanka's clothing lines were failures since all of there merchandise was manufactured in China.
@@pnorris1982 is that what your magic 8 ball told you?
so far, inflation is rising... while orange leader is busy signing off paperwork about pronouns.
@@pnorris1982 Trump said he would reduce the price of groceries immediately. He hasn't even tried. Sounds like you don't understand the difference between prices and inflation.
@@pnorris1982oh, so you can see the future now? And you say that inflation won’t go above 2.5%. And you also understand how tariffs work, right? You know that even if inflation remains low, that prices will still rise because you live in a global economy where free trade and capitalism were what brought groceries to your table? You know these things, right? That apples don’t grow all year round in the northern hemisphere so it’s necessary to get them from South and Central America at other times of the year? You understand how global economics works? Because it kinda seems like, based on your comment history, that you’re just an armchair political commentator going around posting antagonistically, and that you know absolutely nothing about how economics actually works.
It is a sad day for our country.
You wanted the fat man in a dress to run the health department. Your opinions were rejected by the masses. Good night!
Cry me a river. Nobody cares
This will bring back the draft because no one is going to put their life in the line for a fool.
Wonder if Barron Trump will file bone spurs to avoid the DRAFT.
What a huge mistake. Won't last 90 days!
Totally agree, Hegseth’s god is alcohol not trump.
Hegseth will raise a lot more than eyebrows
WEAK, VERY WEAK LEADER! Disgraced years ago!
McConnell did the right thing
Is McConnell trying to redeem himself? After all his bs he’s got a long way to go.
Let's hope his aides wont have to try to sober him up when that "3 a.m." call comes in.
What a stupid comment!
Remember Joe Biden hadn't talked to his defense secretary because Loyd never told Joe he had surgery.....that what you want right.... can't fix your type off DMB thinking......
We just went through 4 years where the president was revealed to be only slightly functional on rare "good days" between 10 am and 3 pm and the secretary of defense would disappear for entire stretches of time without informing anyone...don't agree with your prediction but even if it's true, anything is an improvement from how things have been the past 4 years...
@@NMN89-k2b you have no idea what was actually going on on the inside, yours is just negative opinion.
They couldn't get biden up anyway.
Finally McConnell does the right thing and it’s too effing late! He can crawl back under his rock!
Too old but keep saying NO.
Shame on all who voted TAK (yes)... ACTUALLY, THERE IS ANOTHER WORD, BUT I'M UNABLE TO SAY IT HERE! 😢
You guys should seriously just stop and rework your strategy. It's truly becoming an embarrassment run like a downtown circus
What im getting from my viewing experience is that republicans are very very far behind the learning curve
A man putting women down “He is a YES MAN
Oooh. Who cares? Is Mitch Mconnell going to be the new morality? Thats insane
Get the drinks ready....he's going to be some kind of thirsty after this work out!
Yep
America is the modern day game of thrones.
Time to primary or retire this useless turtle
Make no mistake. Hegseth is merely a conduit between trump and 900billion budget.
yes - Trump wants his hands on the military budget - what a mess of corruption and greed
And now all the IG's are fired contrary to law!
it means that the republicans will follow trump no matter how his decisions affect the future of the country.
From $10K to $110K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I think it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family!!!
That's lovely 🌹 if I may ask, How did you come up with so much biweekly?
It's (Victoria Ruth Ross) doing she's changed my life. A BROKER- like her is what you need.
$700k and yet still counting on. Victoria Ruth Ross is the kind of person one needs in his or her life to be honest❤️❤️❤️>>>>
Wow 😱Wow 😱 here too, Miss Victoria Ruth Ross is a remarkable individual whom has brought immense positivity and inspiration into my life.
Would love to reach out to her.
Corruption over competency = chaos.
Yes, you just described Biden's 4 years in office. Thank you!!!
Maybe is time for our military to real defend the constitution and protect the citizens that represents.
Hegseth doesn't have immunity. As soon as he steps over the line and he will...he's got to be held accountable!!
He won't since he's protected by the orange turd who is also immune from consequences
By who, Pam Bondi?
Or maybe the Supreme Court.😂
Aside from any personal problems, Hegseth is simply UNQUALIFIED to run a dept of this huge size, budget, and importance. Hence McConnell, Collins, & Murkowski vote no. Scary stuff. If someone calls me to be the CEO of Exxon Mobil, I promise to decline the offer since I have NO experience running anything like a corporation that size. Yeesh.
Are you qualified to judge?😂
@@elbo55 Yep
I understand every party wants power and control everything, but at what cost. As long as the one who suffer is not them?
Drunk in Charge (NO Protection for U.S.) Drunks can be FIRED
Yes. Let’s see how long he can last in this position.
Too little too late McConnell. The whole world is watching America in disbelief and disgust.
He can't even name any ASEAN country
lol
defense secretary
If this isnt White Privilege what is?
there are no "asean" countries, OP. is this the name of a new continent?
And Pete will be briefed on what he needs to know. Its not a big deal. No one goes in knowing everything.
@@denniswood7503 this is the first time somebody's going in knowing nothing. There's more than just briefing that needs to be done here
And you can’t spell Asian!😂
Finally. Evidence that Mitch's spine contains at least one disk's worth of courage after all.
Senator Joni Ernst, let the women in military down by voting for Pete, when she knows how Pete feels about women in combat. She also knows likes to drank and chase women. Senator have you no shame?👎
Women don’t belong in infantry.
Nope, fear of Trump is greater.
soo.....you're all for women (you can't define that term) in combat?😮
She was afraid of being primaried.
I'm an American male, and I don't want our women in combat either. Our women are who we men should fight FOR, not WITH.
He has a backbone, but it's too late.
Doubt he really has one now.
Too little, too late Mitch should have found your spine years ago. Thanks to Mitch Trump is in office again.
