Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth brought his younger brother, Phil, into the Pentagon in a high-profile job as a Department of Homeland Security liaison and senior adviser. Phil Hegseth’s publicly available resume lists his past experience as founder of his own podcast production company, Embassy and Third, and his work on social media and podcasts.

It’s not the first time Phil Hegseth has worked alongside his older brother. When Pete Hegseth was CEO of Concerned Veterans for America, a nonprofit that fell into financial difficulty during his time there, he paid his brother $108,000 to do media relations for the organization, according to federal tax records.

In a statement, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed Phil Hegseth’s job title and said this “interagency mission is part of Mr. Hegseth’s preview,” presumably meaning “purview.”

Tomato, tomatoh... preview, purview.

Anywho, DEI is the worstest but giving your younger brother cushy jobs that he's not qualified to hold is the bestest.

Well, it got Jared Kushner $2 billion bucks and republicans didn't bat an eye.
