https://www.thedailybeast.com/bongino-loses-it-over-mockery-of-pentagon-petes-manhood/Initially responding to criticism of FBI Director Kash Patel flying to Italy and partaking in a boozy locker room celebration after the U.S. mens hockey teams gold medal win, an irate Bongino, 51, suggested that those in the media simply do not like seeing men in the administration be men.
Its about attacking every single member of the Trump team that engages in any of this type of behavior that celebrates manhood, testosterone, bravery, courage, strength, any of these attributes you would associate with traditional masculinity; theyve got to bash all the time, he said.
Sometimes guys just like sports, wants to drink a beer.
Bongino said a Beast article from the weekend was another example of the media bashing the Trump administrations masculinity. Its headline read, Pentagon Pete Cant Stop Posting Cringe Workout Videos.
The former No. 2 at the FBI could not control his disgust, referring to the Beast as The Daily Yeast and asserting that the articles author, unlike he and Hegseth, could not even bench press 3.1 pounds.

Given they are totally devoid of brain matter, that muscle head is not what you think and all the thinking MEN AND WOMEN of the world see through it.

The most elite jobs in the world might require 24/7 on any given day. Just like CEOs, heads of state and their ministers. This is kind of goofin' off.

Its not the masculinity anyone has a problem with. It's the TOXIC masculinity that says you should be drunk in a locker room instead of running the fucking FBI.
The last asshole that was anywhere CLOSE to that unhinged in that department was Fox Mulder.
