Why even bother with having disruptive attendees at congressional hearings?

Have you ever tried to stick a silver dollar into a stripper's G-string?
I have a serious question for our spoon-sharp political minds. I'm listening to the SecDef nominee hearings and, since Mr. Hegseth began his opening statement, there have already been three hysterical fools shouting from the gallery. The first sounded like the fat fuck who went viral during an American Communist convention for losing his shit about gendered language a few years ago.

I am sure this is being simulcast on most networks, especially the 24-hour news channels. I'm listening on Sirius radio. If we can hear it on the radio, watch it on TV, and stream it online, what is the benefit of having a live audience in the chamber who can disrupt and interfere with the serious business of confirming (or not) the cabinet of the next presidential administration?

Social media is poison and ruins everything it touches. Just loser assholes thinking they're getting famous. Typical progressives, loud, meaningless and impotent.

Then the question that begs to be asked: There has to be a limit on who is in the the chamber: How are they selected?

Aside from the outbursts, Gillibrand was emotional and acted like a Karen. She went right into her Woke/DEI agenda. Her "feelings" are the only thing that stuck with me, just unprofessional and stupid.

I didn't see much of the hearing but it was easy to identify the Democratic senators from the Republican senators. and one of the Democratic senators kept asking the candidate what he was most likely to do or advise in the future and he kept talking about his stellar performance for Veterans in the past. Of course ihe did not mention that one of the Vet groups found $400,000 missing after he resigned. My concern is alcoholism. I have only known one heavy drinker who was able to stay sober for 4 years even after he promised to do so. (And he made a valiant effort at it.) But what happens when China attacks Taiwan at sunrise (our sunset) and the current candidate for DOD is "unavailable" like he was in the newsroom at Fox News? Who covers for him then? Donald? We need some serious questions from both sides -- something more substantial than the question about referring to your parents as "Mom and Dad" at the Air Force Academy. Just my opinion. I lived through the Cuban Missle Crisis and 9/11.

I don't think Hegseth is up to the job in terms of either experience or character, but it's funny to watch Dem Senators beclown themselves.

The military's job is to impose our will on our enemies via killing people and breaking things. Not to "look like America," not to "celebrate diversity," not to "promote inclusion," not to "understand white rage." Our military is not a social experiment.

If a woman can pull a wounded 200 pound man wearing 100 pounds of kit out of harm's way, fine. Last thing I'd want is to wonder if the soldier next to me qualified on a lower level of fitness.

To correct the lies and propaganda repeated by Stu: anonymous claims that Hegseth was ever drunk on the job have been clearly and loudly debunked by Fox News employees and colleagues. It's a false smear and never happened. Likewise, the rape claim from an anonymous women was refuted by her own husband, hotel video, eyewitness, and the police. She cheated on her husband and smeared Pete to try to save face. Can he do the job of SecDef? Probably as well or better than most senators and absolutely will be better than Lloyd "AWOL" Austin.

I'm way less focused on what the "Generals", "leaders" and holier than thou senators who cheat on their spouses and use Millions of slush fund taxpayers' money to payoff sexual "misconduct" and discrimination "settlements" (both parties), and those that have never run a business acting like they are qualified to be a senator. I'll focus on those that served under and with Hegseth way more any day.

Wait until the Karen Generals are taking orders from a retired Major. Some will be fine, others got where they are by being political animals.

And, if Hegseth screws up, Trump will fire him. The next 4 years will be interesting especially 2025.

One of his main claims seems to be the US military has been weakened by so-called "woke" policies. Where's the evidence of that?
