The demented orange pedo sure has a keen eye for quality individuals.

Telling someone you will quit drinking if they let you run the Def Dept is the most drunken alcoholic thing ever.

This handsy drunkard will be approved, 51-49, with some 'wavering' GOPer eager 'to give him a chance...'. It will not be long that Stinky Pete will be presented with a crisis whose complexity and importance to this country are so great that he will start to act like the mayor of Amity Island, in the movie 'Jaws'. God help us all then...

Republicans on the Committee are going to approve the nomination no matter what any number of women testify to his drunken abuse.

I mean, they are only women, am I right?

Susan Collins thinks Hegseth has learned his lesson, I'm sure.

While I thought it was a little out of bounds to hit a SC justice appointee with unverified claims of antics at high school beer parties, this appears to be completely fair game.

Lawdy... down to the bunker and my infinite supply of popcorn... gonna be a helluva show... the USA... gets its @$$ kicked by random billionaires..."foreign investors"... the greatest military in the world can't stop it... because it hasn't won an actual war in 80 years... well to be fair... it has fluffed a few showpiece skirmishes... and opened the largest drug trade pipeline in human history... rotting us from the inside... I don't expect patriotism from billionaires... on average they own 4 homes in nations other than their own... private jets and plenty of palm grease.

Murdoch and Musk...children of British colonization

this isn't how I thought coming this close to ending world hunger and eradicating so many diseases that used to plague our existence a century ago would play out... there is a surplus of clothes but a shortage of houses... because so many want to live alone... dressed in new clothes... but alas I wax philosophical

Imma go read some good articles about the people willing to cut off their genitalia... and the insurance companies willing to pay for it... big pharma gets a big cut too... a life on hormones... and Dow sells some silicone...some say... it's a story of compassion...

It's 13F in DC this morning... finally... my cats have a real purpose for being in my life.

Just one of the allegations but part of a trend. Men who testified about the strip club said he wasn't there. This is too typical for sleazy Democrats.

FishPawn, no one is too sleazy for you.

-- Men who testified about the strip club said he wasn't there

That's hilarious... like it could NEVER happen that other men would lie.

The trend is this sleazebag's history of multiple abuses of women. Which is prolly why he was nominated in the first place.

Maybe these media outlets should reach out to former co workers.

It figures the dirtbag who killed his old man with horse paste would simp for a drunken rapist.

#13 | Posted by reinheitsgebot at 2025-01-23 12:19 PM

It would be funny if he drowned on his own vomit the night after being approved by the GQP whores in the senate.

#14 | Posted by _Gunslinger_ at 2025-01-23 03:07 PM

Maybe the MSM should analyze his high school yearbook.

Also, according to an anonymous source he farted in church once when he was a kid.

#15 | Posted by BellRinger at 2025-01-23 05:30 PM

he farted in church once when he was a kid.

Was that before or after he drugged and raped a woman?
Before or after he got drunk and yelled "burn the koran" in a bar?
Before or after his mother sent him an email condemning him for years of abusing women?

Moron.

You will defend any republican to your dying breath.

BullBringer couldn't condemn Musk for his Nazi salute.

You think he cares if republicans rape or degrade women?

Hell, he votes for them because they're rapists and criminals.

Quit swallowing talking points hook, line and sinker and do a bit of research independently.

Are you aware of what his second wife has to say about allegations that he abused her?

BullBringer lovers rapists.

Trump, Kavanaugh and Hegseth are his heroes.

Nothing she hadn't been told before.

BullBringer loves domestic abuse.

As JD Vance once said, "Women, just take a punch or two if it helps your husband feel better about his day."

Former Fox News weekend co-host Pete Hegseth, President Donald Trump's nominee for secretary of defense, reportedly admitted paying a woman $50,000 after she accused him of sexual assault.

In answers provided to U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Hegseth revealed how much he paid the woman who accused him of rape at a GOP event in 2017, The Associated Press reported on Thursday.

Timothy Parlatore, Hegseth's attorney, declined to confirm the dollar figure to the AP.

Is he worse than Kavanaugh?

#25 | Posted by BellRinger at 2025-01-23 06:46 PM

Yes.

Kavanaugh at least went to school and has some acumen.

Aside from Hegseth being a rapist that paid a woman 50K to shut up, he's also a fox news bobblehead that thinks women have no place in the military. And he's an alcoholic.

Pick better.

#26 | Posted by Alexandrite at 2025-01-23 06:49 PM

How many pictures of Kavanaugh have you rubbed your dick on?

You love that man. You would have gladly held women down for him to rape.

#27 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-01-23 06:49 PM

women have no place in the military.

They all belong in kitchens.

Yeah, but nominee Hegseth has that one special quality ...

Willing to kiss Pres Trump's most ample derriere at anytime.

That seems to be the prime requirement of the nominees.

@#20 ... Quit swallowing talking points hook, line and sinker and do a bit of research independently. ...

So, my guess would be that your current alias has not read the comments by the current alias BellRinger?

If it actually did read those comments, what are its opinions of them?

#31 | Posted by LampLighter at 2025-01-23 07:24 PM

Men never ever ever ever EVER E V E R everrrrrrrrrrrrrrr lie about anything relative to a strip club... like who went and who didn't.... nope never... won't happen...

#32 | Posted by RightisTrite at 2025-01-24 03:20 AM

"Mr. Hegseth, what do yoy say to these allegations?" And furthermore, "I am not drunkish"

Mr, Hegseth, "Huh?, what?"

First off we've just had 4 (actually 8++ years) of scheming conspiring Democrats lying against and about the opposition for political advantage.

It has been proven that being a Democrat (from POTUS to Speaker to intel experts) or anything requires trading in ones basic ethics. Nothing to believe when it comes from these people.

From the 51 Democrats that claimed the Hunter laptop was a fraud to the lying President who said he will never pardon his son and then premptively pardoned his whole family.

Being a Democrat today means being a fraud.

Robson hopes to get spitroasted by the------------- and Hegseth.

You know, ROBSON, I'm talking to a MAGA on another thread who essentially states that MAGA does not need to eat well, or to eat at all.

This is a genius, truly inspired way to get Donald off the hook for food prices....Which as we speak he is causing to go up.

Are you like this other MAGA, ROBSON? Do you wish to invite hunger and starvation for the Orane Man's greater glory?

You have to know that he won't stop eating even if you do.

#40 | Posted by REDIAL at 2025-01-24 10:36 AM

Why does anyone, MAGAt or otherwise, have difficulty conceding that Hegseth is not qualified to be Secretary of Defense. Do they fear they will will look weak if they make that obvious concession? Do they fear they may look disloyal to Trump who obviously made a poor selection? Does it just piss them off to maybe acknowledge the Dems are right about something? I don't get it.
