‘Pretty Low Ranking Guy’: Duckworth Dismisses ‘Unqualified’ Pete Hegseth Nomination as ‘Insult’ to DOD

EXCERPT:

DUCKWORTH: "Well, it just shows his lack of understanding of where our military is. You know, he was a pretty low-ranking guy in the military, and he never had a command position. He was a platoon leader, I think, once or twice, but he never even commanded a company. And so, this is a man who is inordinately unqualified for the position. Remember that the Pentagon is three million servicemen and women and civilians. It is over a $900 billion budget. He's never, you know, run anything anywhere near to that size. And, frankly, women actually make our military more effective."
