Pete Hegseth is under attack from the liberal smear machine.
He’s President Donald Trump’s nominee for defense secretary and that seems to have upset some on the Left.
Allegations of mistreatment are now starting to spread.
Is Trump’s team planning on a replacement?
Word spreading is there’s a list.
And those on said list are:
Sen. Joni Ernst
Gov. Ron DeSantis
and Rep. Mike Waltz.
Is this just a wish list that the media crafted? Hoping to will it into existence?
Senate Republicans are doing what they did to Gaetz right now and it seems like Trump will bend a knee to them, AGAIN.
If he replaces Hegseth with DeSantis, it sets terrible precedent for what other issues he’ll roll over on down the line.
Terrible, terrible, TERRIBLE!

ABC News reports:
A growing number of senators have privately signaled that they are not inclined to vote to confirm Pete Hegseth as President-elect Donald Trump’s next defense secretary, leading Trump’s advisers to begin discussing who may be a viable replacement, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.
Sources tell ABC News that at least six senators have privately indicated that they don’t intend to vote for Hegseth amid the growing allegations about his mistreatment of women.
While Trump and his advisers have privately said the president-elect backs Hegseth and wants him to “keep fighting,” sources familiar with private discussions tell ABC News that a growing list of replacements is emerging to replace him. Those include Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Tennessee Sen. Bill Hagerty and Florida Rep. Mike Waltz, whom Trump has already tapped to be national security adviser. Sources close to DeSantis say he has expressed interest in the role.
NBC posted a story about Hegseth that is getting push back by his own coworkers:

As one person in the comments states, it does look like it’s a drip campaign against Hegseth.
“They” are doing a classic drip campaign.
Each day they “drip” a new fact/allegation/witness/story. Like a leaky faucet. Drip drip drip until they either pull the nom or he withdraws.
Look at the media stories from the past week or two. There’s nothing “new” there. They’ve been…

Hegseth looks like a threat to the Establishment for sure.
Especially the way they’re reacting to him.
Here’s Hegseth telling Kirk Cameron how Obama corrupted the military:
