Imagine you're trying to get the toughest military job in America ....

...and you're against women in combat...

... by vouching for him on Fox News seemingly did not immediately sway people. ...

In that interview, she said that he has changed since then, implicitly affirming here original email.

So, then, Mrs. Hegseth: when did you stop smoking meth, crack and/or fentanyl? Asking for a skeptical world...

Wow. A mom scolded her own son and then later regretted doing so and apologized. Scandal of the century!

That's hilarious.

The "Joe Biden raped his daughter in the shower!" crowd.

Suddenly want people to understand what Hegseth's mother meant.
