Anyone who wants to put Pete Hegseth in charge of 13% of our federal budget (nearly one trillion dollars) is grossly out of touch with our national security interests and American values. Hegseth was completely unqualified even before the scandals around him came out. 🧵 - ThreadSky

True but remember a number of people in this country decided it would be ok to put his idiot boss back in charge of the nuclear codes so there’s that to ponder over this morning.

Do something about it. People are getting tired of words. We need to see action.

Beyond words to us and their fellows in the Senate, what would have been some steps for a House Rep since they don’t have any say in cabinet confirmations?

chrispmueller.bsky.social•28 days ago

Cool story bro, did you get on Fox to say this? No, I guess we know why the people whose senators voted to confirm don’t care. Go where the fight is and stop whining.

little-thieves.com•28 days ago

I mean, wouldn’t Fox have to invite him on first? They’re not really keen on inviting people that tell them and their base they suck ass

chrispmueller.bsky.social•28 days ago

To a certain extent yes. But the US left has almost completely ceded that ground without a fight. The right wing strategy is win through single issue voters and the electoral college. They use Fox to do that. If you’re not on Fox you’re not where the half of the country you need to reach is.

The thousands of active duty service members, like the ones right here in North Carolina, deserve to know that their leaders have their backs, understand and value their sacrifice, and are making decisions based on merit, not politics.

I sure wouldn’t vote for the guy. 🧵

While Thom Tillis tends to claim he supports our nation’s veterans and active duty service members, there are a few concerning discrepancies.

Pete Hegseth said for over a decade that women shouldn’t serve in the armed forces, especially not in combat. 🧵

wileynickel.com•28 days ago

Pete Hegseth mismanaged funds at a non-profit that supported veterans. Hegseth used $50,000 to pay off the woman who accused him of assault. This is all totally disqualifying. It’s not a close call.

maybe you could tell us what to do about the 8 Dem Senators who voted to confirm

if you don't have the balls to do that, piss off

Maybe someone made them an offer that they couldn’t refuse, after all we are being led by a wannabe mob boss.

Wiley, remember that one of Florida’s senators was in charge of a huge Medicare scam.

They only care about grifting if they’re not a part of it.

Yet, here we are.

He’s unqualified period.

You have the facts, now get out and sell the response. Local media interviews, local influencers.

milawlit.bsky.social•28 days ago

Bring in the sociologists to craft a response to the gaslighting. Bring in behavioral psychs to fine tune the message for each desired audience. Bring in the influencers to get the message out. Engage the anti maga podcasters to increase the collective audiences. Get out in front of the cameras.
