1:12Now PlayingPete Hegseth thinks he knows better than George Washington.
In this clip from Tarabuster with Tara Devlin on the Political Voices Network, Tara breaks down how Washington literally ordered mass smallpox inoculation for the Continental Army, even when it meant soldiers being cut with infected blades. He did it because the alternative was losing the war.
Now Hegseth is bragging about ending flu vaccine requirements for U.S. troops in the name of “freedom” and “readiness.” So who actually understood military readiness better: the commander who saved an army with a vaccine mandate, or the TV tough guy pandering to anti-vaxxers?
If you’re tired of fake “patriots” rewriting history and sabotaging public health, this one’s for you.
