We will call it the battle of the prosthetic legs. Tammy Duckworth is the Junior Senator from Illinois who lost her legs in Iraq. Joey Jones is a Fox News Contributor who lost his legs in Afghanistan. They see the world from entirely different perspectives. The Senator does not think that Army veteran Pete Hegseth is fit to be our Secretary of Defense. As Fox employees Jones and Hegseth are friends and commented on military matters together. Jones supports Hegseth. As Miss Tammy jumped ugly, Joey decided to clap back.

In case you missed the Hegseth Confirmation Hearing, it did no favors to Democrats and in particular Democrat women. Tammy Duckworth hasn’t shut her piehole about it since. She told Rolling Stone in an article published today, that Hegseth is not qualified:

“The man is absolutely clueless,” Duckworth assesses bluntly to Rolling Stone. A woman and a combat veteran who lost both legs in Iraq, Duckworth voted to confirm both Mark Esper and James Mattis, Trump’s nominees for Secretary of Defense in his first term. Even as she disagreed politically with Esper, Duckworth says, “He was competent and he could do his job, and he could go to Singapore, to [the Asian Defense Summit], the Shangri-La Dialogue, and go toe-to-toe with the Chinese defense secretary – and, I’m sorry, but Hegseth is not going to be able to go toe-to-toe with the Chinese defense secretary, and think that he’s going to gee-shucks smile his way out of that type of a situation.”
