I'm trying to understand these picks.
Kristi Noem is extremely pro israel, going so far as to pass anti-hate speech laws which IMO goes against the 1st amendment.
I don't have any issue specifically with Pete Hegseth but I do wonder why he would pick a major to be Secretary of Defense instead of a general, especially if we know there are good generals out there that aren't just for show like Mark Milley.
Generals are already politicized and indoctrinated into the mil industrial complex. All of them are warhawks. Hegseth never rose in rank to be influenced by those things. He is young, has good ideas and is a MAGA patriot. He knows we sent men to die for a lie. This next 4 years is a house cleaning amd I believe he will do fine.
