After the New York Times bombshell reporting that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who is currently embroiled in tremendous personnel difficulties with his staff at the Pentagon over leaked information, participated in a second discussion on the bombing of Yemen last month in an unsecured platform with others, including his wife and brother, most Congressional Democrats, including most of the Arizona Democratic delegation, are calling for Hegseth to resign.
Representative Yassamin Ansari, who was in El Salvador because of mistakes from the Mud/Trump/Vance’s dumb and dumbest with regards to deporting and imprisoning innocent people like Kilmar Abrego Garcia, posted:
“This can’t even be called incompetence anymore–it’s just blatant disregard for national security. Hegseth should be fired and we need an immediate investigation into what other classified information he carelessly shared with civilians on non-secure platforms.”
Senator, Naval Aviator, and Astronaut Mark Kelly issued a couple of posts on Hegseth’s latest muck up, saying:
The Secretary of Defense clearly doesn’t understand the concept of operational security or he doesn’t care. Carelessness puts our service members at risk. If this is true, he has again proven himself unqualified for this job and should resign or be fired.
Representative Greg Stanton wrote:
“Hegseth’s continued carelessness with classified information is endangering the lives of our brave service members and compromising our national security. He has to go.”
Americans should ask this question.
Do they want the country’s national security operations transmitted on public channels for all of America’s enemies to hear?
Pete Hegseth has demonstrated again he is not up to the task of being the Secretary of Defense.
He has to go.
