Hegseth Plasters Pentagon With Photos of Controversial Wife

[Jilly_in_VA]

Under-fire Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has plastered the walls of the Pentagon with photographs of his ever-present wife.

The snaps can be seen in the background of photographs showing exit-bound government utility man Elon Musk chatting with Hegseth’s team inside defense HQ in late March.

This is likely to grate Pentagon staffers, who are growing increasingly irate at how often Jennifer Rauchet Hegseth is around. “What I’ve seen with [Pete] Hegseth—never in my life have I ever seen this,” one insider said of the situation.

2. His wife is like Elon's human helmet child

I think she's his "minder" to keep him from drinking and womanizing.

3. I think she's his domme.

6. Before he enters a room, she goes in first to make sure there is no liquor in the desk drawers and

no floozies under the desk.

Doesn't seem to be working, though.

If I were him, I would claim to be drunk so nobody would notice how stupid I am.

4. Hope the generals and admirals turn her face toward the wall.

Like her drunk spouse, she has zero business in the Pentagon.

5. She probably has to stay by his side to be able to tell him what happened when he sobers up.
