Text of the Email That Pete Hegseth’s Mother Sent Him
Oof.
That’s a powerful heartfelt letter.
The guy must be a an absolute fucking scumbag.
aka the main Trump administration job requirement.
Sure, it feels wrong to joke about it, but given Trump and a substantial portion of his cabinet has a history of abuse as well, it is by no means a joke.
but after listening to the way you made Samantha feel today
What happened?
basically did a full 180 when ‘needed’ like a good maga nut republicant.

Mrs. Hegseth, in a phone interview with The New York Times on Friday, said that she had sent her son an immediate follow-up email at the time apologizing for what she had written. She said she had fired off the original email “in anger, with emotion” at a time when he and his wife were going through a very difficult divorce.In the interview, she defended her son and disavowed the sentiments she had expressed in the initial email about his character and treatment of women. “It is not true. It has never been true,” she said. She added: “I know my son. He is a good father, husband.”
Problem being, that was a well thought out, well written letter. Not exactly the words of a distraught parent.
Very little emotion here, except in the truthful (to the author), heartfelt sense.
