Most jobs do background checks, so why not check?

It's a mistake to focus so much on allegations of Hegseth's rapiness. Focus instead on what we know: multiple affairs with Fox co-workers, leading to multiple divorces; his hostility towards women in the military, who we need now; his hostility towards higher ranks he doesn't agree with; and most important: he has no demonstrated skills running an organization of 3 million people (uniformed and civilian) and an $800+ billion dollar budget per year.

I hear Mark Robinson is now available for a cabinet position.. he’d fit right in.

The people who compiled that report were paid with taxpayer money. Therefore the people own that report. If the people want that report published then it must be published. Who is Mike Johnson to have any say whatsoever about making that report public?

Paid a woman to be quiet. Where have we heard of someone else doing that?

I'd say that it's more than "allegations". An incident clearly happened, the victim went to the hospital and there is a contemporary witness of her injuries by a friend. Innocent persons do not pay victims off and demand a non-disclosure agreement. Rather, he could have afforded a legal team to defend his innocence,

Why should there be any problems with Trump picking people who reflect his own history

The Dems focus on policy, the Reps focus on convincing the least educated that triple down works.

DJ TJ on here talking about "WE are picking..."... when he says we, what is he doing? Does he have a position in the cabinet as well?

The Gaetz business is ridiculous. He resigned but for an even more government related job. If it’s not okay to traffic kids as a congressman why is it okay to do it at attorney general? He’s a spoiled child himself. Serious decisions wouldn’t be his forté.

It would be nice if the reporters would challenge the politicians who are going “oh yeah, I’m gonna vote for him, ” on their concept that this guy is qualified. Exactly how is he qualified to run the Department of Defense? And it’s interesting that they’re not bringing up the Biden inauguration controversy where he was removed from being allowed to be a part of the unit protecting Biden because his tattoo suggested that he’s part of an extremist movement and he was seen as a possible inside threat. Which is not far-fetched considering his book American Holy War. Seriously, how obvious is it that he is not appropriate as a head of DOD (rhetorical
