Remeber, this twit is supposedly under consideration by Trump to be the next VA Secretary, and he was clearly sucking up to Trump this morning:

Fox & Friends opened this morning with the big news of Andrew McCabe‘s firing, and Pete Hegseth said that this is clearly good news.

Hegseth––the subject of reporting this week that he’s being considered for a Cabinet position––said it’s rare to see such accountability happening and that it “restores confidence”:

“In most countries, corrupt officials get away with the money. They’re never held accountable. But I feel like with this move, you feel like you got a piece of America back, you got a piece of law & order back where actual standards matter.”

2. Actual standards for Oligarchs and Dictators maybe --

for American institutions, not so much.

The thing about it -- we've always sorta suspected the rightwing as fascists. Now, with official cover from Trump, their true colors all come out. It also answers a lifelong question for me: are fascists made or born? Are fascists that way by nature, or are they "trained" to be that way? Clearly, they're born, and all become Republicans when they grow up.
