Pete Hegseth Nails It! | Pete Hegseth Brings His 'A' Game and Gets the Job Done

Pete Hegseth Brings His 'A' Game and Gets the Job Done

Snippet of Article: "...Hegseth's performance probably ensured his confirmation. ...Thank you to my incredible wife Jennifer, who has changed my life and been with me throughout this entire process. ...Thank you to my father Brian and mother Penny, as well as my entire family— ...wants a Pentagon laser focused on warfighting, lethality, meritocracy, standards, and readiness. That’s it. That is my job.

1) Restore the Warrior Ethos to the Pentagon and throughout our fighting force; in doing so, we will reestablish trust in our military—and address the recruiting, retention and readiness crisis in our ranks. The strength of our military is our unity—our shared purpose—not our differences.

2) Rebuild our Military, always matching threats to capabilities; this includes reviving our defense industrial base, reforming the acquisition process (no more “Valley of Death” for new defense companies), modernizing our nuclear triad, ensuring the Pentagon can pass an audit, and rapidly fielding emerging technologies.

3) Re-establish Deterrence. First and foremost, we will defend our homeland—our borders and our skies. Second, we will work with our partners and allies to deter aggression in the Indo-Pacific from the communist Chinese. "
