To understand Hegseth’s announcement of impunity for misconduct, you must understand that Eddie Gallagher is the model. This is what he means by “warrior ethos.” Trump may have even selected Hegseth because of his similar appearance to Gallagher.

A U.S. soldier was executed on the streets of the U.S. capital, yet the flags remain at full-staff.
But when a hate-peddling podcaster was killed, the flags were lowered to half-staff within hours—and stayed that way for days.

![I am not a Know-Nothing. That is certain. How could I be? How can any one who abhors the oppression of negroes, be in favor or degrading classes of white people? Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes" When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty -- to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy [sic].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:egd33s7iuqsmwlwab6mbtrqi/bafkreiaaicjid4jg3oongeah73ukqvwsqv4vwbp75q4f755nldtcfermhi@jpeg)
