Pete Hegseth, the Army National Guard veteran and Fox News host nominated by Donald Trump to lead the Department of Defense, was flagged as a possible “Insider Threat” by a fellow service member due to a tattoo on his bicep that’s associated with white supremacist groups.
Hegseth, who has downplayed the role of military members and veterans in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack and railed against the Pentagon’s subsequent efforts to address extremism in the ranks, has said he was pulled by his District of Columbia National Guard unit from guarding Joe Biden’s January 2021 inauguration. He’s said he was unfairly identified as an extremist due to a cross tattoo on his chest.
This week, however, a fellow Guard member who was the unit’s security manager and on an anti-terrorism team at the time, shared with The Associated Press an email he sent to the unit’s leadership flagging a different tattoo reading “Deus Vult” that’s been used by white supremacists, concerned it was an indication of an “Insider Threat.”
All of his picks are insider threats. Trump is an insider threat.
Not a shock that Trump would want to fill his cabinet with Putin spies.
This is not specifically referring to this dumbfuck being a potential foreign asset.
Its referring to how his tattoos identify him as a possible domestic terrorist, or someone aligned with them.
Its like how if a cop had someone in custody, they’d look at their tattoos for signs of gang affiliations.
Tbf, Trump’s allies tend to be both. The Venn diagram is almost a circle. 😅
I’m surprised he hasn’t nominated Putin for a cabinet role.
If the Republicans actually admit they are wrong and got a majority not to certify the election what would happen?
Harris would probably have nominated a white supremacist too, so we were doomed either way.
I know nobody has replied to you because it’s a waste of time, but I have to let you know you are a drooling moron.
I thought bOtH sIdEs were the same. I guess maybe they are not after all.
Wait, you’re mocking “both sides” after saying that about Harris? I’m so confused.
I guess they’re just really bad at sarcasm 🤷
Yeah, I was trying to use satire to mock the both sides people. I figured saying Harris supports white supremacy would be so fringe no one would believe I was serious.
I wasn’t trolling to rile people up. Or at least not people other than those who see no major difference between the parties.
I see the troll wants some attention
You dropped this /s
