  2. He struggled to stay out of the gutter and not sink to that horrific ‘lil bitch’s level.

    Hirono and Fauxchohontas Warren both predictably beclowned themselves in their race to see who could be the dumbest and most shrill idiot in the room,

    Sec. Hegseth of course refused to play their grandstanding game and showed the nation what class and real intelligence looks like.

  3. I would have rather seen trumps ass on the table getting asked these types of questions. This guy is a fucking distraction and a joke.

  4. It doesn’t matter. He will be confirmed cuz the right is truly in a cult. It is no longer a political party just a cult of an orange douche

  5. Thank you, Senator Mazie Hirono!

    You represent us very well here in Hawaii, and represent all sensible people in our great country.
