You may have heard a story on Wednesday about Secretary of War Pete Hegseth at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier for Veterans Day.
The story that was beamed out by many media outlets was that Hegseth and his group were laughing and were admonished by the sentinel on duty.
...
Except that wasn't true. There was one laugh. Some of the stories said that you could not tell who laughed. But you could tell it was a woman, so it was obviously not Hegseth. So implying or claiming Hegseth laughed is just false. Of course, Democrats are trying to whip up a narrative against Hegseth to try to justify an impeachment.
I get folks on the Left have trouble with knowing what a woman is, but most of the rest of the world can tell. You can hear it here.
Hegseth-Hating MSM narrative: Hegseth's group laughed. Reality: One woman laughed.
