Using family members as human shields, as Elon did when he took his son to the Oval Office.

Pete Hegseth brought his wife to his meetings with senators so it would be awk to ask him about his alleged sexual misconduct www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

I wonder if he needs her to feel safe. I get the feeling he's constantly terrified.

sheltiemora.bsky.social•7 days ago

He’s probably watching from up there somewhere like…

pattikroen.bsky.social•7 days ago

So, she’s ok being demeaned and used in this way? Sick.

dinainmaine.bsky.social•7 days ago

She’s his accountability parter 😁

msdavinci.bsky.social•7 days ago

Awkward to ask about? lol I’m sorry, this is the party of dick pics and other sundry perverted compulsions.

tcappy-01.bsky.social•6 days ago

This was supposed to be job interview if he brings his wife to bad for her. At least she will know who he might have an affair with.

echo-too.bsky.social•6 days ago

That's the perfect time to ask, actually.
And repeatedly.

twilder66.bsky.social•7 days ago

If they can’t ask the tough questions perhaps they should resign and allow someone with a brain and a spine to lead

maurscode.bsky.social•7 days ago

Exactly. Cowards.

newmexicoman.bsky.social•7 days ago

That should make it easier.

thobert.bsky.social•7 days ago

Did Pete’s wife pick her nose the whole time like Elon’s brat did?

aws-55.bsky.social•7 days ago

A friend recently said that Elon isn't using his young son as his emotional support prop, but as a human shield from death threats. I hadn't considered this possibility. The more I thought about it, I was convinced it may be true, and I was horrified. Where the f**k is this child's other parent.

reliablenarrator.bsky.social•7 days ago

Cheap, punkass move

cmhoskins.bsky.social•7 days ago

Because they’re all weak cowards.

laserjockaz.bsky.social•7 days ago

Hell I would have asked the most difficult questions and looked back and forth at both of them.

altkudzu87.bsky.social•7 days ago

OMG are these children or leaders? Why do we elect such cowards!

ex-xer.bsky.social•7 days ago

Pussy grabbing is awkward.

mb77921.bsky.social•7 days ago

She was his wing-woman

gordonvincent.bsky.social•7 days ago

What cowards. I'd have asked all of those questions.

jamkam6969.bsky.social•7 days ago

There are anywhere from 400k to 600k words in the english language but some are rapidly falling into oblivion in the current american regime:
morals, scruples, empathy, kindness,
compassion, generosity, & humility come to mind.

Sounds like Pence needing his wife in the room when he spoke w/women…why does big tough maga need to hide behind their women?

I’m not saying there’s anything wrong w/a woman defending her family or being tougher than her man…but for all the bravado of maga and the consistent hypocrisy…

barefootdog.bsky.social•7 days ago

DICK WAD HEGSETH!

incognitoastronaut.bsky.social•7 days ago

It's either that or we will find out one day he illegally cloned himself or something out of another distopian novel.

2 guesses who's driving home.

laney502.bsky.social•7 days ago

Duck. Duck. Duck. Duck…
🪿Obtuse.

lindayoung164.bsky.social•7 days ago

I would have asked the questions anyway.

camvogt.bsky.social•7 days ago

Maybe this is why I couldn’t hold public office but that wouldn’t have stopped me from asking him about it.

kennm.bsky.social•7 days ago

id ask anyway! he brought her to the meeting! #FAFO

hollywood1734.bsky.social•7 days ago

Fuck it, ask the tough questions, put them in a box and watch them try to punch their way out!

hopelessnobody.bsky.social•7 days ago

Y'know, masculinity and all that.

vlong1968.bsky.social•7 days ago

F awkward! ASK! If she doesn't know already she needs to!

flamingal.bsky.social•7 days ago

Did they think the third mistress would be surprised that her husband cheated on his wife with her?

tjarm.bsky.social•7 days ago

She’s the designated driver.

oldtimerarmy.bsky.social•7 days ago

She’s there to earn a few extra bucks giving lap dances during the meeting. 5$ is 5$ bucks. 😂

atkies.bsky.social•7 days ago

… and, seems just slightly irregular to have high level meetings on matters of national security with your +1

christabelly.bsky.social•7 days ago

She’s probably his sober companion. Without her, he starts f-ing things up, texting random people war plans and stuff.

4mjc.bsky.social•7 days ago

What a slime ball.

douggarnett.bsky.social•7 days ago

You know how MAGA seems to hate the idea of comfort animals? They just rely on comfort people — comfort toddlers for Elon, comfort kids for Trump, and a comfort wife for Hegseth. Sigh. They lack such self-awareness.

bea-sue-lee.bsky.social•7 days ago

Elon’s kid was in the background making weird kid noises during a Fox News interview. That poor child has no hopes of growing into a normal human being.

bossya.bsky.social•7 days ago

Hopefully the mothers provide some good genes, otherwise my prediction is most of elon’s spawn will grow up to be arrogant, privileged, sad little squats like their father.

smm570.bsky.social•7 days ago

As if his wife is unaware of his character…insulting. She know who he is. Someday maybe she’ll get out and we’ll learn even more about what a criminal he is.

robluesky.bsky.social•6 days ago

There was he $50,000 to drop the sexual assault. and spousal abuse charges of wife #1. She knows.

leafymorgan.bsky.social•7 days ago

Remind me. Is their job to not hurt his feelings?

flaviaelphberg.bsky.social•7 days ago

It's not even their job to not hurt HER feelings. That's HEGSETH's job.

swamplizard.bsky.social•7 days ago

Damn, I would love to ask these losers about their crimes and indiscretions in front of their loved ones, it’d be like the cherry on top. Why are our reps only assholes in all the wrong ways?

stevencal03.bsky.social•7 days ago

His current wife is someone he was having affair with during his previous marriage. If I was to senator, that would make me want to ask him about it even more.

almetfan.bsky.social•7 days ago

Excellent point!

loufromboston.bsky.social•7 days ago

Also Vance did with his 3-year old daughter. When the going gets tough, the weak grab a family shield.

almetfan.bsky.social•7 days ago

Heck! He took his wife to Greenland!

loufromboston.bsky.social•7 days ago

…. and people of Greenland threw them off. Greenland scores a lot of points for their visit.

msberti.bsky.social•7 days ago

Awkward?! So what?? This is the man in charge of our Defense Department! Who cares if he’s embarrassed? Jesus, you people are idiots
