Scott, I'm going to start testing my co-host testosterone levels. I feel like I need to do that now. Defense Secretary
00:00:06
Pete Hegseth says the military will begin annual testosterone screenings for service members age 30 or older with
00:00:12
voluntary testing for younger troops. Service members found to have low testosterone will be offered voluntary
00:00:17
hormone replacement therapy as part of the new program. I didn't know they did gender affirming care. I thought they
00:00:22
were against that. Let's listen to a clip from this bizarre announcement. >> This initiative, it's not about
00:00:28
artificial enhancement. It's about restoring and optimizing your natural capabilities, protecting your
00:00:35
longevity, and ensuring you have the biological foundation required to sustain the fight.
00:00:41
>> Well, now we know he's on T. You know, let me let you run with this. >> I'm on testosterone cuz I think it's
00:00:46
good for my brain and my heart health, and it makes quite frankly, it just makes me feel younger. I'm not using it
00:00:51
to be a monster or more aggressive. I'm using it cuz I want to quite frankly feel 45 again, and hormone replacement
00:00:56
therapy can be a real value add under the supervision of a doctor, but this is just performative stupidity. Young men
00:01:02
don't have or our military and men don't have a testosterone problem. We have a loneliness problem. So, if you want a
00:01:08
more lethal fighting force, we need to make more investments in young men, and it's not about pumping them full of
00:01:14
testosterone. >> This idea of let's jack up our troops and make them insane. Like I don't know,
00:01:19
just so unhealthy. Anyway, typical of Pete Hegseth cuz he's as dumb as a box of hammers.
