Well, color us surprised with this one. There’s a new report that suggests bizarre claims are being made against Pete Hegseth. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
As many people know by now, Pete Hegseth is a forthcoming nominee for United States Secretary of Defense in Donald Trump’s second cabinet.
But according to the latest reports, there’s one MSNBC guest that says Pete Hegseth is a far-right extremist who promotes “military-level” weaponry because he sold grenade soap.
Ruth Ben-Ghiat says Hegseth is supposedly a far-right extremist because of his soap sales, tattoos, and support of ammo companies.
She put it this way, “Hegseth has tattoos that are linked to far-right extremism… It’s also interesting that he was making videos selling grenade soap.”
“He was selling ammo. Now, of course, the US Military uses government-issued ammo. He was selling something not a handgun someone might keep around the house to defend.”
Ben-Ghiat continued, “He was selling something for grenades, weapons, military level, you know, weapons. You know, people like that, extremists buy those things, military-level weapons. And they’re not in the military.”
“You know, Hegseth could be for those who want to radicalize the military and politicize it. He could be a bridge because of his views and that’s very, very dangerous.”
Of course, the internet had a lot to say about the matter.
Some even commented with, “The problem with legacy media is that there are a lot of these people living amongst us and they are readily available to be a guest.”
“Hegseth needs to run the defense department. He will whip it into shape quickly.”
Another critic wrote, “Why do you continue to legitimize these people? Nobody knows this person and nobody watches this show or this network.”
“This is beyond ridiculous. Labeling someone an extremist for selling soap? That’s a new low for MSNBC.”
