As usual, the mainstream press is going after the click-bait and missing the real Hegseth story.

The Atlantic, Jonathan Chait:

“The inability or unwillingness to distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate political opposition likely endeared Hegseth to Trump, who shares the trait. . . .

“The main question I was looking to answer when I started reading Hegseth’s collected works was whether he would follow a Trump command to shoot peaceful protesters. After having read them, I don’t think he would even wait for the order.”
