Never mind the reasons -- this is patently illegal and violates security clearances. Yet another reason, as if more were needed, to oust him and then prosecute him.

Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

Do you think a man who kept national security secrets in a golf club bathroom actually gives half a rat's ass about security?
Hah, LOL no. Sadly, I have no illusions there will be any accountability in this regime.
"Ah, who cares? Everybody already knows all that shit, I sold them all the documents years ago."
didn't he laso being his son in on 'top secret' meetings?
Imagine if someone in Obama or Biden's cabinet did this
I can't be the only one wondering at how no one in a closed-doors meeting was able to both contemplate the status of their own security clearance, or how it might be negatively affected by disclosing sensitive (albeit apparently not classified, secret, or top secret) information in the presence of someone who was not legally entitled to hear/see it? According to the source, there were foreign military officers there as well? How the fuck did not one of them stand up and demand that she get the fuck out of the fucking room?
How is it possible for the Secretary of Defense to be so nose-blind to this level of bullshit, as though he thought that it was acceptable to bring his spouse along as some kind of adult "bring your kid to work day"? This isn't "odd" or "strange", it represents possible degradation and compromise of national security. Wait in the fucking lounge, Jennifer, Jesus Christ.
Probably drunk and needing his wife to translate for him. DUI hires routinely need these accommodations until their wives leave them.
Then hell replace her with an "Intern."
No no, we should be praising him. Clearly he needs a designated driver.
So.. america doesn't have classified information anymore?
If there are any CIA agents left that aren't double agents, I understand, but protect yourself bros. I'd try MI6 maybe. Some one in europe ought to take you. Sorry.
Elon brings his kid, why can't I bring my wife?!?!
"Elon gets a human shield, I want a human shield, too!"
Definitely his drinking accountability partner.
She's probably the brains of the couple. Helped him get To where he is today at Fox News and thought that that would apply to his government job.
Still too stupid to know not to marry a rapist lol
Nothing spells government job like a drunk rapist.
"Additionally, Pete Hegseth’s brother Philip Hegseth has also tagged along on official visits, the report said."
Soon, Mike Johnson will bringing his son to classified congressional briefings to make absolutely sure they don't miss any of one another's porn usage.
"How that boner, buddy? Ya doin' okay?"
They're acountabilibuddies!
Bonerbuds
No their relationship has deepened beyond porn.
Now they're accountability buddies that make sure each other doesn't bomb rich white people accidentally.
Mother wouldn't want him to be alone. Pence is back!
So he doesn't have kids to use as a meat shield?
He’s prolly too drunk to remember what happens at the meetings
He's probably insecure about what she'd be up to out of his sight. Insecurity motivates most of what these freaks do.
Has he stopped drinking? I haven’t.
There ain't enough scotch in the world...
You brought yo' bitch to the Waffle Hut?
Because she knows how to operate the phone. Duh.
