Peacock Hegseth is so unprofessional and he is panicking. [View all]

His manner of speaking, the tough guy rhetoric, constantly quoting from the scriptures, he belongs in a locker room giving a pep talk rather than in the Pentagon press briefing. Now he is accusing the press for negative coverage of a conflict which was unnecessary. Blaming America's allies for not rushing into a conflict they were never consulted on. As Hegseth said this was all Trump's decision, but he and others in the administration didn't have the balls to talk the President off the cliff, a man who's mental acuity is in question. And questioning the loyalty of a free press doesn't change the fact that this conflict was a mistake. Grow up Pete!
