This is such a smart PR move by Hegseth that I have to wonder who forced him into doing it.

Pete Hegseth was reprimanded by a US Army sentinel guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery as his group were filmed talking, laughing, and taking photos at the solemn memorial. The sheer brazen disrespect is astonishing. #USA #USpolitics #VeteransDay #RemembranceDay

Everyone is talking about Hegseth giving a medal

Hegseth is keeping a soldier in solitary confinement

Don't fall for the show he puts on
He stood alone on the steps of the Capitol with a sign in protest of Trump.

He is in solitary confinement.

MAGAs violently stormed the Capitol in protest of the 2020 election—resulting in injuries and deaths.

They are all free.

Make it make sense.
