BREAKING: "DÉGAGE!" French villagers tell Pete Hegseth to G**O of their solemn D-Day ceremony in Normandy!
Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth’s trip to commemorate the D-Day landings in Normandy was met with outright disgust by locals near the cemetery, who openly protested his presence and called him a disgrace to the values the Allies fought for.
In the village of Langrune-sur-Mer, residents and civic groups made it crystal clear they did not want him there. One local leader said Hegseth holds “values contrary to democracy, human rights, and peace,” while another bluntly labeled him as representing “colonial, warmongering, racist, far-right values.”
The civic group Langrune en Commun released a scathing statement demanding his visit be canceled, saying it would dishonor the memory of the young American, British, and Canadian soldiers who died on those beaches fighting for freedom.
True to form, Pentagon Pete failed to show the exhibit the humility and gratitude for sacrifice called for on such an occasion, the anniversary of one of the most sacred days in military history.
Hegseth used his speech to take shots at European allies for not joining Trump’s war in Iran, and to inject MAGA politics into the commemoration by hideously comparing the heroic D-Day landing with the arrival of migrant boats in Europe.
The competition is very tough, but as the main purveyor of the U.S. military’s new regressive might-makes-right-and-screw-everybody-else attitude towards world affairs, it’s safe to say that Hegseth is among the greatest embarrassments in the Trump administration apart from the boss himself.
If I was a villager in Langrune-sur-Mer, I’d sign on to the statement too. As the head of the U.S. military, Hegseth desecrates the memory of the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice 80 years ago so that we could be free.
