In picking Fox News Channel host Pete Hegseth to lead the Department of Defense, President-elect Donald Trump has selected a military veteran and popular conservative media personality with a large following of his own.
This is the kind of shit that terrifies me. When Trump first came into power in 2016 it was a shock for everyone, and he wasn't prepared. He took office with GOP traditionalists mostly in his cabinet and in his reporting structure. Several of those found him despicable and put up resistance.
This made his first presidency extremely ineffectual.
No such luck this time, every one of these fascist fuckers knows exactly what they're doing and are eager to get to work.
