I know it’s unfair of me to comment about an article that I haven’t read, but just reading the headline makes me wonder: Does the author really believe that Pete Hegseth gives a damn about patriotism? Does he think any of these Trump people that are in power right now have any sense of patriotism?

He was in the 187th Infantry regiment. I saw him wearing the pin. "Ne Desit Virtus" translates to "Let Valor Not Fail"

Valor has failed, thanks to Hegseth.

He should die, resignation would be insufficient.

If he had any patriotic duty, it would be to remove the fascists in office with him.

He could go further than that, but what I want to suggest would get me banned.

You can't say, " Pete Hegseth's patriotic duty" in sentence and expect people to take it seriously.

He's a white nationalist. He's a Nazi.
Patriotism doesn't factor into the equation for him.

Hegseth’s loyalty is to Trump, not America.

madcattv2.bsky.social•18 days ago

There isn't a patriotic bone in that fucker's whole body.

rwdrift.bsky.social•18 days ago

He is not a patriot, so don’t hold your breath.

His duty to the orange one. He is a grifter who only cares about himself. The fact that he shows absolute deference to someone else shows his inability to think critically

carlglo.bsky.social•18 days ago

Yes… put on your make up…and…resign…

It is the patriotic duty of the American justice system to put him in handcuffs and take him to court to be held accountable for what he has done.

whiskey Pete is not a patriot so don’t expect him to do the right thing 🤬✊✊🏽resist

He cares about looking patriotic, not about Americans.

problem solved, he's not a patriot.

He doesn’t have one single tiny bone in his body that is patriotic.

snuffi12345.bsky.social•18 days ago

Lol, he could care less about being patriotic. He's a shitbird that should get the boot.

mlco.bsky.social•18 days ago

Immediately

dcneo.bsky.social•18 days ago

Hegseth lacks any self awareness, not gonna happen…but we can hope

First, you have to understand what Patriotism is.

bullmastiffla.bsky.social•18 days ago

It isn't incompetence. It is intentional. They do not care about national security, no one on that chat thread.

adorableoddities.bsky.social•18 days ago

It’s the patriotic duty of everyone in a position to remove him to do so with haste. It’s the patriotic duty of everyone who could investigate this to do so to make sure he wasn’t knowingly or unknowingly sharing Intel with foreign powers

solarpunkvision.bsky.social•18 days ago

He's a nationalist not a patriot.
