Pete Hegseth continues the Foxification of the Pentagon by ‘ordering a hair and make-up studio’ at taxpayers’ expense

According to CBS sources, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered thousands of dollars’ worth of alterations to create a hair and make-up studio in a green room at the Pentagon.

Heaven forbid he should have to blame other people for his own failings and leaks with a shiny nose or – just spitballing, here – one of his sideburns shaved off and the other one intact.

Hegseth issued a flat denial of the story.

1) Totally fake story. No “orders” and no “makeup” — but whatever. 2) We should have installed tampon machines in every men’s bathroom at DoD instead — the leftist “news” media would have loved that.

Who to believe – several sources speaking to CBS, or the man who said a journalist made up a story about a Signal chat to smear him? It’s a tough one.

The former Fox News presenter is, in fact, fielding a second Signal group chat controversy, after it emerged that he discussed the strike on Yemen with his wife, brother, and personal lawyer, in a separate group chat to the one to which a journalist had been inadvertently added.

News that he may be spending public money on a literal vanity project was greeted with the scorn it deserved.

It isn’t the first time someone has made this suggestion, and it won’t be the last.
