I see him more of the front men than decision maker. Somebody else will be pulling the strings. Most likely Trump himself.

No, not a front man, he’ll be a manager like any CEO (the US government is a corporation) hires to implement their policies and decisions.

I certainly hope so. People on X are concerned that his “innocent little Jerusalem cross” that he shows to Shawn Ryan isn’t some noble throwback to the Middle Ages, but is the sign of a “Third Temple (in Jerusalem)” Christian supporter of the current Israeli regime because of its supposed messianic role.
I understood his criticisms of the military, as the younger sister of a Marine Corps vet.
But as a descendant of a New England Puritan preacher, his religious beliefs “give me trepidation.”

According to Tammy Duckworth, Senator and a legless veteran, says he is a ridiculously bad candidate. She would like to see General CQ Brown who understands the value of women in the military. Apparently Hegseth said something stupid about how women don’t belong in combat. “How do you think I lost my legs (in a helicopter that was hit by an RPG)? In a bar fight?” She calls Trump “Cadet Bonespurs”, draft dodger 5 times… gulp.

My thinking was that no matter which candidate won the election World War III was going to happen. I was not fooled by Trump in any shape or form. The Israel lobby gave him 100 million dollars for his campaign. Just like the Democratic party needs to clean their act, the same must happen in the Republican party. The world is seeing the new goverment as a neocon, Ziocon, war hawk administration. I will be blunt, for me it was a matter of where the main event of World War III was going to happen.
The Palestinian conflict is now a planetary issue. In my opinion, the only country on the face of the earth, that can broker a peace deal between Israel and Iran is RUSSIA. There are 1 million Russians living in Israel and they are strategic and geopolitical partners with Iran. The United States don’t count for nothing here, only to bring war, which is why Israel gave 100 million dollars to Trump campaign. Every cabinet member mentioned is a neocon, Zionist, bible belt rapture nutcase. There are a few honorable exceptions but is not looking good.
In my opinion, Colonel Douglas Macgregor was the better choice. He has quiet a following inside and outside of America. He is respected among the troops. Mr. Hegseth says he is a recovering neocon, I don’t see it. The Deus Vult tattoo does nothing for me.
In the Middle East there are several options. 1) A peace deal is made and the Palestinian state is created. 2) Annex all the Palestinian lands and the Palestinian that survive will live in an apartheid Israel. 3) All out war and things are moving on that direction.

Mike Adams’ (Brighteon, Health Ranger Report) presentation today about Hegseth was eye opening. He showed video clips of Hegseth pitching to an audience in Israel (King David Hotel podium) about rebuilding the third temple and other classic Zionist agenda items. He seems a double edged sword. One side cuts for the good (return conservatism to the Pentagon)…the other side seems a pro-Israel war-hawk.

Another thing about him is his military service spent mostly in Guantanamo Bay??? not in Iraq or Afghanistan as many may think. Also I understand he is a part of military called “green berets”.
As we all know Trump has backing of one of the fractions of Deep State? and part of military used to identified as “white hats”. Who knows maybe actually they are green hats or more precisely green berets?
Again, Hegseth is a front man not an independent decider.
You seem really sure 
Go ahead give me your take.
He either decides to implement what he’s told or gets fired, that makes him a decider.
