So just so I have it right, Oklahoma’s Senator, Markwayne Mullin’s whole argument as to why Pete Hegseth is more than qualified to be Secretary of Defense is because there’s hardly any written qualifications to be the Secretary. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Hegseth may well be the biggest DEI hire of all time. Tasked to lead 3 million men and women he's never been the boss of anything larger than a corner convenience store.

Peters: You talk about standards, you talk about raising, or that we have a problem of standards in the DOD, and we have to raise standards for the men and women who serve. Do you think that the way to raise the minimum standards of the people who serve us is to lower the standards for the secretary of defense, that we have someone who has never managed an organization more than 100 people?

Question for women: Do you agree with Pete Hegseth that women shouldn't serve in combat roles if they don't qualify under the same standards as men? Hegseth reiterated that he will review and increase the military's standards if necessary to ensure only the best are on the front line. I completely agree with him. How do the girls feel?

Asked about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s argument that fitness standards in the military should be “gender neutral,” Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth, a combat veteran who was seriously wounded while serving as an Army helicopter pilot during the Iraq War, tells Margaret Brennan that Hegseth is the “least qualified Secretary of Defense in our nation's history, and he's questioning the ability of the women who actually qualify… to do their jobs.” “He has long sought to push women out of the military,” Duckworth adds, “And, frankly, our military could not do its job of protecting America and keeping us safe without the women who serve in the military.”
