    [Joe Kasper, Hegseth’s soon-to-former chief of staff] reportedly derailed a meeting with a veterans’ group by telling a story about a night out at a Washington, D.C. strip club. He was also said to have begun a meeting by saying, “Can I just tell everyone around this table that I just took an enormous s–t right before coming in here?”

    Kasper was a Trump nominee. Only the best people.

      Kasper will remain an adviser at the Pentagon in a special government employee role, limited to working no more than 130 days a year.

      And also consequences are for show, he’s not really fired.
