He told Hegseth to "look into it."

Ten minutes later, Hegseth is unconscious, passed out in a pool of his own vomit and urine.

What stuns me is that there's a good chance that any one of these reporters capturing Trump's words know as much as any of us on DU know, and they just WRITE IT DOWN, AND PASS IT ON. No

"Oh. You told Hegseth to LOOK INTO IT? Exactly what is he looking into? The illegality of the Military FOLLOWING ILLEGAL ORDERS?"

Because maybe the person giving those orders is the one who should be afraid of the rope.
