      Not sure what this beard thing is. Loads of republicans out there sporting glorious thick beards. It’s kinda one of those red blooded American things. Pete’s beard must come in like a bunch of red pubes.

      He just wants the soldiers to be hairless, muscular and oiled up at all times, nothing weird about that

      I can’t imagine working so hard to get where they are and now they have to listen to a glorified cars salesman like he knows shit.

    4. What about dick length? Who’s going to check on Hegseth’s warfighter dick length requirements?

      He bragged about firing 20% of the generals and admirals. He called it “accountability.” Everyone else calls it a purge. And he did it while the Iran war is grinding into month seven with no end

    6. “No wimps, no radicals. Just warriors. Strong, muscular, sinewy, musky warriors throbbing and committed.”

      Says the dude who wiped his nose, wiped his hair, and only then, checked his hand for boogers.

      He’s the kind of hyper masculine nut that thinks skid marks are normal, because wiping your ass is gay.

      He likes his army men clean shaven, and wearing tight, snug pants. Maybe with a little bit muscle popping out their shirt buttons. But beards give him a rash or something! He isn’t deeply closeted and/or insecure, you are!

      what is his problem with men with beards?!?! this clean shaven shit is 1950 mad men antiquated bullshit

      Does this apply to special forces or are they overflowing with so much T they get a pass?

    11. *”Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth named the newly announced initiative “Project Meridian” to symbolize mapping out the global boundaries and “domains that we must conquer” in next-generation global warfare.
      Unveiled on September 30, 2026, during his “State of the Force” address at Marine Corps Base Quantico, the project is a high-level, 120-day advisory study. It is co-led by high-tech innovators and political figures Elon Musk, Palmer Luckey, and Newt Gingrich.”*

      Then this:

      *”Global Technological Dominance: The explicitly stated goal is finding the absolute baseline parameters required to secure long-term military and technological superiority.”*

      He can’t even get out of Iran, ffs.

    12. He’s gotta be closeted, right?? This obsession with pseudo macho bullshit is too absurd to be real…

    13. We’ve regressed 100 years. “Beardos and weirdoes” is the kind of insult the Sheriff was calling Rambo in First Blood, when they villainised anyone with long hair as a “hippy”

      We are going back to Puritanism. Suits and ties and clean-shaven while saying your prayers

      “Send me,” Hegseth [concluded](https://x.com/atrupar/status/2105385455722086545/video/1?s=4), heavily paraphrasing the Bible. “Send me to fight the redcoats. Send me to fight the Communists. Send me to fight the Islamists. Send me.”

      Yes, send him out there to fight. Ship him out to Iran, let him see what it’s really like for the soldiers (yes, soldiers, not the stupid “warfighters” crap).

      No beards! Real men don’t have facial hair! They are prepubescent boys with soft faces and softer bottoms!

    16. WrappedInLinen on

      Hegseth is one of the weirdest mfers you could ever come up with so it a bit confusing that he doesn’t want anyone like himself in his military.

    17. He has the same 5 punchlines. The military isn’t his fucking Fox News crowd, his 3-second soundbytes don’t resonate with the rank and file.

      Shut the fuck up dude, and keep your religious zealotry to yourself.

    18. Start with yourself you testosterone obsessed weirdo. I don’t see out and open gay men be nearly as obsessed with other men’s testosterone levels to this level.

    19. puffinwannnnnn9999 on

      Tells people he’s gay without saying he’s gay, must have top gun on a continuous loop at home.

    20. One_Purchase_3127 on

      This guy is losing a war and this is what he’s worrying about? We need a SECDEF that is less worried about his makeup and more about doing his fucking job.

    21. AceofKnaves44 on

      We’re supposed to believe that fat people aren’t “fierce, killer, warriors.” But we’re also supposed to believe that Donald Trump, a clinically obese man who has swollen ankles and gained over ten pounds in less than one year, is the definition of masculinity and toughness. Make it make sense?

    22. Bananasincustard on

      I’m watching the Tom Hanks WW2 documentary right now and it’s crazy to think the US had military legends like Eisenhower, Patton & MacArthur winning world wars and now we have this fuckin chud TV host running everything

    23. This administration really is just a group of awful men using their personal insecurities to guide all of their professional decision-making.

    24. >“Send me,” Hegseth concluded, heavily paraphrasing the Bible. “Send me to fight the redcoats. Send me to fight the Communists. Send me to fight the Islamists. Send me.”

      This pavement princess wouldn’t last five minutes. We’ve all seen the workout videos, buster.

    25. For an audience of 1. I’m fairly certain trump is incapable of growing facial hair. Not like he’s shaving around his nussy every day
