YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPaul Rieckhoff tears into Pete Hegseth, mockingly dubbing him the acting “Secretary of Culture War” and condemning his nearly daily press conferences as the worst tone ever set by an American Secretary of Defense to the world, likening Hegseth to a guy who thinks he can beat people up forever while ignoring the reality that there is always someone tougher and that eventually someone lands a blow, concluding that Hegseth’s tone, presence, and overall posture are a complete failure. #veterans
