A new report from the Wall Street Journal shows that Hegseth is starting to see elusive leakers in his nightmares. According to the outlet, Hegseth threatened top officials with lie-detector tests to root out media sources on recent embarrassing stories.
Whiskeyleaks
You think he still had his glass of whisky in hand while he shouted that?
Glass, yes. Whisky, not any more.
“Who’s leaking all the signal chats?!” Asked Hegseth, in a hotdog costume
A new report from the Wall Street Journal shows that Hegseth is starting to see elusive leakers in his nightmares.
“I’ll hook you up to a f**king polygraph!” Hegseth reportedly yelled at Grady, per two unnamed sources who spoke with the outlet.
Seems like this anti-leak crackdown is going well.
“The extraordinary thing is that lie detector tests are being threatened not to uncover potential anti-President Trump civil servants but to catch political appointees suspected of leaking classified or sensitive information,” a source in defense told the paper.
A source who spoke to Politico characterized the situation in Hegseth’s inner circle as a “knife fight.”
Sounds like it’s generating more leaks than it’s plugging.

Quote Origin: The Floggings Will Continue Until Morale Improves
Appears like the most-direct original quote is from the military.
In 1961 a U.S. Navy publication called “All Hands” printed a one-panel comic depicting a naval officer addressing a group of sailors. The caption presented an instance within the family of caustic jokes about morale:
“. . . and all liberty is canceled until morale improves.”
Petey, the reason why people are leaking everything is cause the administration that you work in is a complete an utter fucking clown show.
People want to talk about the dumpster fire on rails. The mainstream media is loving this the slow, moving horror show as everyone wants to tune in.

Maybe if this fuckin’ idiot would stop using unsecured communication systems, he’d have a bit more privacy.
You can’t fix stupid.
It’s not the staff’s fault if you’re a leaky ass.

Best news I’ve heard all week. I hope this guy also dreams his teeth are falling out.
Teeth falling out is a vanity dream, common among people who worry a LOT about their looks. Actors, models, government officials who need a makeup studio at the Pentagon, etc.
What if they turn into Legos after they fall out of your mouth and you build an impossible replica of the Taj Mahal out of them?
I’ve always wanted to see the Taj Molar.
Thanks I spat out my coffee
Or having braces. Everyone I know who got them had that dream at least once : you dream you finaly get to remove them and the second you do so your teeth start falling out.
Polygraphs known for being fool proof with no methods to fool that the military would have complete awareness off.
They’re not even good at detecting lies. They detect nervousness. Truth can make people nervous.
Being accused of a lie can make you nervous too
Bro I’ll be nervous if the interrogator is hot.
Just clench your sphincter every time you answer truthfully. It’ll be false negatives, all the way down.
Right? The group he’s threatening is likely to have plenty who can pass with flying colors.
I mean the military doesn’t train you on how to cheat a polygraph, but it’s also not really necessary. The polygraph is security theater and people slip by it all the time in the intelligence community without trying.
There are unclassified quarterly audits on how effective the polygraph is at catching criminals on DOD security clearance polys. The funniest audit I saw was a guy who was smuggling drugs to Texas from Mexico since the '80s, passed a dozen polygraphs during his time doing that, and then admitted to drug running during his polygraph like 35 years later because he felt like it before retiring.
There was an old beardy white fuck who was a polygraph examiner at my job. He swore the polygraph wasn’t security theater and that it could tell when people were lying. I’d always ask him about the quarterly audits showing people “beating” the machine for years and get into fights with him. That dude also said his job was like “welfare for white people”.
Modern witch tests, same bullshit.
chronic alcoholism does cause paranoia.
Also possibly leaking. Pun intended.
Lmao
Install a mirror in his office. He’ll find the leaker right away.
Either that or he’ll get shitfaced and try to fight himself.
“Who the fffuch’re yoo, Bro?! Thish ish MY fucheen offish, BRO!”
Waiting for the supposed ‘deep state/illuminati’ to ‘take care’ of this guy.
Talks in his sleep during his naps.
