This is not pretty. She has a ridiculously tight grip on him. We thought it was excessive when they were in public, in DC, but she was also with him through his first Senate committee and then through full Senate questioning. She’s even been along on his overseas trips. So what is going on with this woman who has such a tight grip on the leash?
She shows up everywhere. Who is taking care of the kids? And with Pete’s pastor thinking women should not vote, where does that put her? For a non sequitur, the pastor is a piece of work, and his viewpoints on women need to be buried. It’s all a bunch of hooey. Why is this pastor holding these views in today’s world? Pete Hegseth seems to really like him, but with Jennifer going everywhere Pete does, how do they follow that crazy religion?
There are a huge number of questions about why she goes everywhere with Pete Hegseth. Guesses have been made for this and that, starting with keeping him away from alcohol. There’s also a theory about keeping him away from other women, although that rarely happens. We can think of reasons all day and all night, but what *is* the actual reason?
Nevertheless, no matter what, she does not belong there with all the high-stakes actions right now. She shouldn’t have sat with him for interviews, or any sort of war council. Didn’t SignalGate I and II teach him anything? It’s always the Dashing Duo in the Pentagon, where Pete Hegseth has banned the press, but she’s right there all the time. There is something we’re missing – there *has* to be. The two of them have far too much leeway. Does she have a security clearance?
And now a few words from the Pentagon via Raw Story:
“It’s bonkers that a defense secretary would involve his wife in his sensitive official duties, including sharing details of an impending military operation, and face zero consequences,” former Pentagon spokesperson John Ullyot reportedly said.
Now, according to the Daily Mail, that sentiment has resulted in a nickname. Behind her back, the Pentagon calls Jennifer Hegseth by the name of the Japanese artist whose relationship with John Lennon was often blamed for the breakup of the Beatles: Yoko Ono.
SCORCHED. That’s marvelous! That’s just beautiful, since Yoko Ono isn’t particularly powerful these days, only when Jon Lennon was still alive. Fortunately, she seems to have fallen out of the limelight and possibly the music scene as well; we can hope because her voice is cringeworthy. Now, if Jennifer Hegseth were to fall out of the spotlight as Yoko did, we’d be all set and possibly relieved because of all the classified information she’s been around. That’s enough to make anyone nervous. We wonder where she sits with the morning pow-wows with all of Trump’s ‘cabinet’. Does it matter? No, because of all the press in there. At least she’s not standing behind Pete Hegseth during the morning meetings. Now get her out of there!
Friends, I know everybody begs you for money. I promise you that, of all the outlets bugging you for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a bunch of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. But the rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the ability to continue our quest to tell the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
