I'm glad Hegseth isn't going anywhere. He has a big job fixing the military that was turned into a world laughingstock by the last administration.
Also nobody fired for Afghanistan, Benghazi and 100 other fiascoes.
Also Teixeira not a good comparison. (Another) conservative prosecuted by the Biden DOJ. If he got 15 years why didn't Hillary get 100 years for having the illegal server that every county on Earth hacked, + deleting 33,000 emails and destroying hard drives?

Nah, Teixeira needed to be made example of. Best case he set the intelligence community back a few years, worst case he actually got people killed in Ukraine by disseminating information on troop movements. With a perpetually online society and the increasing desire for people today to chase "internet clout", a message needed to be sent to the entire US military that these are the consequences for failing to protect national secrets. Whether you are Edward Snowden and feel like (right or wrong) you are doing the moral thing, or Teixeira and just looking for some likes in a chat room, you should face the same consequences for violating your oath to defend the United States and protect national intelligence.

Again, the "what about so-and-so" arguments don't really mean anything to me. Yes Hillary should have had to answer for the emails and servers, but everyone in that Signal group had a responsibility as custodians of classified information and should have to answer for their failures to protect that information as well. These rules are clearly written, there should be no doubt as to right and wrong, but because of the politics of it all it muddies everything up on the legal side.

First one is a huge LOLOLOL! Where have you been the last 16 years? This is a five-alarm fire and not a peep about all the never ending fiascoes? I call BS on that HS. Our intelligence community is mostly corrupt and incompetent.

Second is long as "so-and-so" is a Dem it seems. Anyway my final point is I'm glad Hegseth is staying to help fix our military which was made into a worldwide laughingstock by the last utterly corrupt and incompetent administration. And all the people going nuts who haven't had any complaints under Obama and Biden admins who are suddenly alarmed makes me laugh. Case closed.
