Megyn Kelly spoke with Bill Ackman, the super-wealthy Jewish Democrat turned Trump supporter, and began by giving a rundown of Pete Hegseth’s background.
Bill Ackman agreed with her and said he “seems like a soldier’s soldier.” He said he thinks he will inspire young men to join, strikes him as a good leader, has a master’s degree from the Kennedy School of Government, and is clearly a smart and articulate man.
Hegseth is only 44, so Kelly asked him about his age. Ackman said you don’t have to be old to be right. How old was George Washington? Most Founding Fathers were young.
As an aside, George Washington, who led the American Revolution to victory, was 35 when he began to break from the British rule over oppressive laws, including taxation.

The old ruling class and system has failed at nearly everything. Time to put them away and start anew.
Lloyd Austin Was a member of the board of directors for Raytheon. They are a huge military contractor. He said he was going to divest himself upon entering office. Yet, where will he go after. Back to a company he steered contracts to? He was undoubtedly one of the worst SecDef’s we’ve had judging by what has happened to our military. But, the stink of corruption hangs over appointments like this. We should never have SecDef’s come from the military supply/contract arena.
As I heard Michael Savage say, years ago, ‘we need more Pattons and less patent leather’.
Hesgeth appears to have the spirit of a Patton. Well done, President Trump.
Great pick.
Compare Hegseth’s resume to that of our current Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin from Wikipedia:
Served as the 12th commander of United States Central Command (CENTCOM), beginning in March 2013. Prior to that he served as the 33rd vice chief of staff of the Army from January 2012 to March 2013, and as commander of U. S. forces – Iraq from September 2010 to December 2011.
Commanded in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan and was the first African American to command a division, corps, and field army in combat. He is a recipient of the Silver Star, the nation’s third highest award for valor, for his actions during the Iraq invasion, as well as five Defense DSM medals.
Now that’s a resume as long as your arm. Oh, by the way, he was in charge of the U. S. withdrawal of Afghanistan – For some reason, Wikipedia left that little tidbit out
And EVERY position he held was due to DEI! He’s clearly incompetent otherwise!
Yea, but Austin has one drawback. He’s inarticulate. Nice word for dumb.
Leon Panetta? !!*
