Trump’s Pick to Lead U.S. Military Has Tattoos Linked to White Supremacists and Nazis
Concerns are mounting over Trump’s pick to lead the Pentagon, Fox News host and military veteran Pete Hegseth. CBS News reports that Hegseth was one of 12 National Guard members who were removed as guards for President Biden’s 2021 inauguration over possible extremist ties. Hegseth has tattoos assoc...
Reminds me of Putin and his buddy Dmitry Utkin, initial founder of the Wagner mercenary group with multiple tattoos that show the symbol of the Waffen-SS, as well as other Nazi symbols.
"Trump Accountability War Room". Because suddenly presidential accountability is VERY important.
.....wait, what?
Also, using the term "war room" for everything. Peak USA.
The war room was a joke in Dr. Strangelove, so of fucking course it became a real thing.
Well calling it a Revenge Room would have been too obvious.
Might be an unpopular comment, but I googled the Jerusalem cross and it appears to be more of a religious symbol than anything.
Saying he has tattoos linked with white nationalists is just sensationalism. And it has gotten the exact response in this thread that it wanted.
Might be an unpopular comment, but I googled the Swastika and it appears to be more of a religious symbol than anything.
😂 Clearly you googled neither… literally every link for “swastika” mentions nazis. Google “Jerusalem cross” and the only posts you see related to white nationalism are Reddit posts with people asking if the symbol is related to white nationalism/nazis and nearly every comment saying it is not.
I am looking at other photos. I can also see "Ne Desit Virtus" (Let Valor Not Fail) with a sword. That's a symbol from the 187th Infantry Regiment. I also see the Chi Rho symbol, a Greek symbol for the name of Christ. Another tattoo is "MDCCLXXV" for 1775. Above that tattoo is an American Flag with a gun superimposed on it. I am not sure if these mean a recalling of the US War for Independence. The gun looks modern but could also serve as a bridge to the modern military of the US. On his other arm is "Deus Vult."
Broadly speaking, these tattoos suggest both military service and Christian identity.
Not found are any symbols I've seen identified with White Nationalism. No Valknot, swastika, black sun, 88 symbol, Confederate symbolism, etc.
Edit: The photo I was looking at is here: [https://i.imgur.com/kkroDES.png].

They might mean other tattoos, he seems to have a collection.
It still makes him a religious weirdo, possibly with a bizarre crusade fetish. Not a great look.
The article specifically mentioned that tattoo and no other ones… I’m not saying this dude is qualified for the job. There’s probably tons of legit reasons to hate this pick.
This article is just rage bate, though. And judging by this thread it is a successful one.
Yes and the swastika is the symbol of well-being
Not to detract from this guy likely yes being a massive nazi piece of shit-
-but many deeply religious Polish Catholics who lived through WW2 and the atrocities, had (maybe still have, idk all my grandparents and aunties who did are now dead) Jerusalem crosses on their walls, usually displayed alongside their many JP2 pictures, crucifixes and black madonna's.
Also not to say that many of these Polish Catholics weren't also massive racists, but I'm pretty sure the Jerusalem crosses they displayed were a Catholic thing for them rather than a white supremacy thing.
The entire cabinet is something from a comic book. These guys are all cartoonishly evil.
People shouldn’t fear governments. Governments should fear their people.
Allies kill Nazis, Allies have babies, babies become assholes, assholes have baby Nazis.
Probably why trump picked him
Trump nominating a Literal Nazi to lead our Military is PROOF that DEMOCRATS were Overreacting!
he also doesn't believe in germ theory
When does Russia invade to de-nazify the US?
(They already have, comrade. And your citizens voted it in)
Here's another question:
If Russia launched a nuke at the US, would puppet trump use the launch codes?
more like that insane fuck would nuke some place as final middle finger before he dies to old age
Probably not because he would probably tell Putin to target a major Democratic city center
Dearborn, MI would probably be high on the list.
High Muslim population. Heavy Democratic leaning (except this year. Lol)
One obvious one NYC, but he wouldn't want to hurt his property value.
So, pretty much the entire pacific coast.
The launch codes are
00000anyway, so...
Trump, picking a Fox news host to run the military
"How could this be any worse?"
That motherfucker: takes off shirt
Narrator: "It got worse."
Wait until he opens his mouth and starts talking
If this person gets clearance and is not open about the hate group ties, that can be grounds for prosecution. The big question will be whether or not anyone cares.
The big question will be whether or not anyone cares who has the ability to do anything about it.
Yeah, I'm sure AG Gaetz will get right on that
Well the attorney general is going to be a pedophile so I doubt we'll see any prosecution on this.
I'm a gun nut. I have an AR-15 and love it. Finest multi-purpose rifle on Earth.
Forget the rest of the tats. Having a tattoo of an AR-15 is so goddamned toxic I want to puke. FWIW, I'd punch him for the Iron Cross tats before I noticed the others.
Get an ak. Ar is jam city
The M-16 is a jam factory, the M-4 was built to not do that. Slap any nato mag in that bad boy and pew pew
Mine is cheap as hell and will cycle anything, including steel case ammo of dubious origin and quality. If you have one that is jamming, there might be a defect that requires your attention.
Confirmed: doesn't know his head from his toes
Oh...right.
Of course they do.
so he'll fit right in
Donald's Eleven
So just like a lot of the military
Actually the military aggressively weeds out and removes "out right" racist and those with extreme ideologies. Turns out having racist in your military units doesn't lead to a effective fighting force. Yes there are racist people in the military and it has always been a white male dominated institution. Do to the mixing of all walks of life (kind of like college.) I honestly believe if push comes to shove the military would back the people over Trump. That's been the true goal of the whole woke military hearings to Congress.
Same goes for gang related tats. My sister had to explain that she was not in fact part of the Latin Kings for the crown on her shoulder, just a maid in a Mardi Gras crew.
