"The defense sec appears unable to approach matters of life and death with even the slightest bit of reverence or humility."

Necessary edit:

""The #DefenseSec appears to be little more than an uncloseted #Ammosexual who takes raw erotic delight in his own pornographic narratives of death.

His enemies' death, always at his own remote hands."

Pete Hegseth’s Mother Accused Her Son of Belittling, Abusing, Lying to Women
motherjones.com/politics/2024/

“Is there any sense of decency left in you?”

* Fox News anchor Hegseth: Trump2 nom. Sec. Defense
* intense scrutiny for mistreatment of women incl. allegation of rape
* one of his critics: his own mother, 2018




In 2018, Penelope Hegseth wrote her son an email in which she laid into him for poor behavior and disrespect toward women. “You are an abuser of women—that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego,” she wrote in the letter, obtained by the New York Times. Hegseth chastised her son for how he treated his wife, Samantha, in the divorce proceedings that prompted her to send her April 2018 email. She concluded it by writing, “On behalf of all the women (and I know it’s many) you have abused in some way, I say… get some help and take an honest look at yourself…”
