Conservatives on social media praised Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Sunday after he responded to an attack from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with a photo that was seen over 2 million times on X.
“Wouldn’t want to hurt Putin’s feelings,” Clinton posted on X over the weekend along with a Gizmodo headline that read, “Trump’s Defense Secretary Hegseth Orders Cyber Command to ‘Stand Down’ on All Russia Operations.”
Hegseth responded to the post with a photo of Clinton smiling with Russian Foreign Affairs Minister Sergei Lavrov in March 2009 in which the two are holding a “reset” button that was meant to symbolize a reset of relations between the two countries.
“Crooked Hillary just got OWNED,” Department of Defense press secretary Kingsley Wilson posted on X.
