Trump’s Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is a self-declared “crusader” who believes the USA is in a “holy war” against China, the left, and Islam. “Communist China will fall”, he vowed in his 2020 book.
("...Hegseth also stated with certainty that there will soon be a civil war in the United States, between the right and left."Yes, there will be some form of civil war. It’s a horrific scenario that nobody wants but would be difficult to avoid", he wrote. He asserted that there are "irreconcilable differences between the Left and the Right in America leading to perpetual conflict that cannot be resolved through the political process", and he predicted a "national divorce"......")
Note that Hegseth is.....a government official. He is IN CHARGE of the political process. Which he and his counterparts have completely hijacked.
So if there is something hegseth believes cannot be resolved by the political process, and yet they are going to "resolve it"....well....then he is speaking about him and his counterparts in government KNOWINGLY and SYSTEMATICALLY conducting unconstitutional, illegal acts. Like imprisonment or mass murder of political opponents. On anyone he considers to he "left wing".In the country he is control of. Using uniformed agents of the state: army, police, "homeland security", FBI, etc.
He's not predicting civil war, then. He is declaring it. An official of government telling you the government he is in, aims to illegally use the power of government to HARM its own people
Futhermore people need to connect the dots across what they are doing. When they begin as they have done now, to purge the leadership and ranks of the US military, removing minorties, well this is because they plan to use the US military forces to do things that will be even more prejudiced and objectonable that what they do now, including agasint even minorties in the US.
He is a fascist telling you he is going to do exactly what fascists do: hijack countries and wage war on political opposition until its a flat out dictatorship.
When these kinds of sociopathic people tell you the sick, depraved things they are going to do...believe them the FIRST time. Instead of pretending you didnt hear it.
Last but not least, what Hegseth said there actually consitutes treason and an impeachable offense, if he had said it while in office. And yet he was confirmed by the senate and he is now a government official swong to uphold the constitution, telling you he will violate it and harm the American people and undermine the American consitutional that he is sworn to serve and has a duty to serve.
So its 2025 and we have government officials who have openly told you they will commit treason and mass murder. While the media is off on a millon different tangents and distractions,
"Under Trump's leadership, Hegseth promised, "Israel and America will form an even tighter bond, fighting the scourge of Islamism and international leftism that will never fully abate".
That's sufficient to disqualify this jumped up hayseed for any ethical human being, right there. On Ukraine, this administration at least seems sane. Beyond that, they are just as abhorrent as the Biden administration only more brutally honest in their imperialism. Is it somehow worse that they plainly state what Dems lie about in public? I don't think so. In fact, I think it serves to clarify things for and radicalize the wage slaves of the world. I rather enjoy their candid statements. Its refreshing.
I don't know about sane on Ukraine. Trump's goals don't align with continued war there that's all. If people think he's about multipolarity and align with him for the sake of the common ground of peace- this will be very dangerous. This kind of peace comes at the cost of freedom and brings with it homophobia, misogyny, Islamphobia and racism. It's the iron fist of fascist peace.
Thank you Ben Norton. Hegseth sounds terrible, and his nomination underscores the dangerousness of Trum who actually picks a Defense Secretary because he was on Fox news.
He is picked because he has openly declared his dedication to a vision of fascism and he has proven on Fox news that he can succesfully sell that vision to people.
I had picked up a smattering of this from different articles and soundbites, but was glad to see some solid descriptive background reporting, despite the horrific content. Snarling and fatuous at once, lovely.
The guy has never been to America, does not understand what America is about, and has a head full of lunatic notions that are actively dangerous to America and her people. I had hoped Trump's first-term exposure to dangerous idiots like Bolton and Pompeo might have immunized him.

*Pfffttt* Holy War? Crusade? What is this, the fucking medieval ages? America's devolving their civilisation 700 years back!
Hegseth wants to eat Chinese, not Chinese food, but Chinese. It's all in the tattoos.

Cool show, if you are still into comic super hero's...Compare it to China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi's recent speech > https://scheerpost.com/2025/03/07/chinese-foreign-minister-wang-yi-press-conference/
Now pick which vision of the future the world will want to follow...because that is exactly what is going to happen.
Pete: ASS CLOWN ZIONIST of the highest order.
He's not a clown. Nothing he is saying is funny and he aint harmless.

What a piece of work he is!
Well he could start by firing their ally Musk.
How drunk was he when he wrote this stupid book?
Proof that any scumbag can attain power, provided other scumbags support him.
Much thanks for good authorship.
