I was going to write this last night but better late than never. I predict that Hegseth will be confirmed for Secretary of Defense and Joni Ernst will vote for him. All the allegations against him are from anonymous sources and are just a continuation of the left playbook and republicans are wising up.

Ernst presents a particularly interesting case. It is credibly reported that her potential objection was really because she wanted the position. She has denied it but members of the Trump transition team have confirmed it. And she has made a big mistake. Hardly anyone knows her other than her main claim to fame is that she castrated pigs. Her name pops up once in awhile but is hardly a household name.

She got way out over her skis on this one. Now everyone knows that she is for trans in the military and doesn’t think it’s too woke and also is for women in infantry units. Not what Trump and Hegseth are looking for and more importantly not what her constituents in Iowa are looking for. She is now backtracking because if she votes against Hegseth she may well be primaried in the upcoming elections. Her record is now being exposed as not only RINO but basically Dem. I guarantee you that she will vote for Hegseth to try to save her ass. Btw she voted in favor of Magoo nominees including Lloyd Austin the miserably failed present Secretary of Defense.
