Hegseth has been a Fox & Friends Weekend co-host for eight years.
I am honored to announce that I have nominated Pete Hegseth to serve in my Cabinet as The Secretary of Defense. Pete has spent his entire life as a Warrior for the Troops, and for the Country. Pete is tough, smart and a true believer in America First. With Pete at the helm, America’s enemies are on notice – Our Military will be Great Again, and America will Never Back Down. Pete is a graduate of Princeton University, and has a Graduate Degree from Harvard University.
Of all the people officially nominated thus far, this is the only one that is going to produce a conformation melee. It won’t matter how qualified he is and what the bona fides of his CV are. He’s never been confirmed by the Senate before in any prior capacity. Most of the people who get one of the three top jobs – State/Defense/Treasury have served in government in some prior position – like Under Secretary – and have one or more confirmations under their belt.
