“Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough defended the U.S. military against the notions floated at Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing that the institution is “weak and woke.”
“This insult that somehow our military is weak and woke is just an outrageous lie and an insult to our men and women in uniform,” Scarborough said.
The co-host said that the U.S. military is more powerful now than it has been in 25 years, noting that American troops have helped Ukraine fight Russia (“the second most powerful military in the world”) without losing a single American soldier.
