he must provide answers.
This is madness

Not like he has to worry about Congress funding his Department or anything like that....

by his lack of accomplishment? His alcohol-induced brain damage limits his ability to perform in public?

(10,250 posts)6. Hegseth is there to do what Trump tells him to do. That's why he doesn't need any experience in
anything but lying. Just like all the members of his cabinet and administration. Thus, all the stupid, evasive answers to questions like, do you want Ukraine to win? Anyone with a functioning brain can observe that Trump is just walking away from Ukraine.
We dont have a functioning defense secretary or cabinet.
