The quality of our enemies defines us. The Center for American Prosperity (CAP) opposition makes me certain Pete Hegseth is the right man at the right time.

The evil and execrable John Podesta runs CAP.

That John Podesta. He replaced John Kerry as the Climate Envoy.

The consequences of Hegseth’s appointment would reverberate far beyond the Pentagon. His lack of credibility and diplomatic acumen threatens to undermine alliances, embolden adversaries, and weaken America’s standing on the global stage—all outcomes that raise risks to the safety of the American people.

America’s armed forces deserve leadership that is competent, credible, and focused on the challenges ahead. The American people deserve a secretary of defense who will prioritize an effective and accountable Department of Defense ready to keep the nation safe against rapidly evolving threats. Hegseth is not that leader. His confirmation is a risk the nation cannot afford.
