As Twitchy reported earlier, a petulant Jim Acosta from CNN did some journalism and decided that President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for Defense Secretary, combat veteran Pete Hegseth, was just a “Fox anchor.”

That seems to be the talking point in the mainstream media: Call Hegseth a Fox News host and ignore his combat experience in Iraq and Afghanistan and his two bronze stars. Just don’t mention it. Like DNC Platform Committee member Chris D. Jackson here:
So, we’re replacing a former four-star general as Defense Secretary with… the weekend co-host of Fox and Friends?
Unbelievable. Just… wow. pic.twitter.com/alITjYkrTW

“The View” posted from its own X account this clip in which Whoopi Golberg describes Hegseth (whose name she mispronounces, which would be racist if it were Kamala Harris) as a host on “Fox & Friends Weekend” — not even the weekly show. Of course, there’s no mention of his 20 years of military service:

MSNBC’s Joy Reid said Trump was moving quickly to “fill the clown car” and left out a lot of Hegseth’s resume.
Joy Reid laughs and mocks Pete Hegseth for being appointed by President-elect Trump as his Secretary of Defense.
Hegseth went to Princeton and Harvard, served overseas, is an Army Major, and was awarded two Bronze Stars.

You know he’s a great pick by the way it’s making all the right people screech with rage.
Well – screech MORE.

A complete human zero mocks a man who has the level of accomplishments and contributions this life loser can only envy.

Let’s see her laughing when MSNBC gets sold due to its low viewership. Intolerable woman.

Keep on talking, Joy. Your network ratings have plummeted. People are tired of the BS.

She might have tried doing some homework before she went on her rant. But nah, then again, why bother? 🤡

@JoyAnnReid Ummm, what credentials should he add to his list, ma’am?
— Frappalachian (@frappalachian) November 13, 2024
Just what are her credentials exactly? She’s irrelevant.

Pete Hegseth must be an all star pick since they hate him.
— HatcheeKhan (@uga_scott) November 13, 2024
It’s pretty desperate for a cable news host to try to denigrate Hegseth for being a cable news host. What’s Reid’s service record?
