In a display of infantile weakness, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the U.S. Navy to remove iconic gay rights activist and Korean War veteran Harvey Milk’s name from a ship.
A Pentagon official told Military.com the ship renaming was intentionally announced during Pride Month, presumably because faux tough guys like Hegseth and others in the Trump administration mistakenly equate toughness with being a complete (expletive).
In a statement, a spokesman for the Department of Defense said: “Secretary Hegseth is committed to ensuring that the names attached to all DOD installations and assets are reflective of the commander in chief’s priorities, our nation’s history, and the warrior ethos.”
The “warrior ethos,” Secretary Hegseth? Are you an insecure 12-year-old?
Nothing says indomitable warrior quite like, “I’m afraid of this boat’s name.”
