Comedy Central’s Michael Kosta wrapped up his week of bad military hot takes on by denouncing Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for pressuring Scouting America to reverse certain changes it has made in recent years to align itself with the left side of the culture war. While imitating a conservative Scout and referencing the sexual abuse scandal, Kosta quipped, “We signed up to molest biological boys, not these trans weirdos!"
Kosta began by introducing a clip of the local NBC New York affiliate’s report on the subject followed by a mashed up clip of Hegseth, “Let's move on to someone we hope is only starting their day with iced coffee, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Fighting an illegal war against Iran is his job, but he's still a Fox News host at heart, and that's why he's announcing a new wartime initiative.”
In the videos, the reporter declared, “Changes are coming to Scouting America, formerly known as the Boy Scouts. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has criticized the Boy Scouts, calling recent changes, quote, ‘Woke culture.’"
