The night before Donald Trump was snubbed for the Nobel Peace Prize, his self-titled “war secretary,” Pete Hegseth, delivered a jaw-dropping ode to his boss—bragging that Trump was willing to “drop bombs” on people’s heads.
The remark came during the “Celebrating American Exceptionalism” black-tie gala, held Thursday night at the Kennedy Center, which is now MAGA-friendly after the president’s reshuffling of the board and programming.
The event, hosted by the conservative political nonprofit Nestpoint Foundation, honored Hegseth with The Great American Exceptionalism Award and drew a star-spangled lineup of Trumpworld figures, including Fox News host turned podcaster Megyn Kelly, former Trump White House press secretary Sean Spicer, and right-wing influencer Mike Cernovich.
