Republican Thom Tillis: “I think Noem and Hegseth are probably the poster children for men and women who should never have the authority they've been granted.” Tillis voted to approve both of them and he’s only speaking out now because he’s retiring. Kristi Noem oversaw a rogue US government agency that murdered Renee Goode, Alex Pretti, and Keith Porter. Pete Hegseth is still in charge of a US military that’s actively committing war crimes and mass murdering schoolchildren. Tillis speaking out now, after people are dead and war crimes are still being committed, is cowardice disguised as courage. He is simply trying to save face and rehabilitate his political party that he never had the courage to stand up to when it actually mattered and could have saved lives.

Hegseth: "The ideological clowns are out. The patriotic cowboys are in, with testosterone testing on top."
