A new report from the Wall Street Journal shows that Hegseth is starting to see elusive leakers in his nightmares. According to the outlet, Hegseth threatened top officials with lie-detector tests to root out media sources on recent embarrassing stories.
“Who’s leaking all the signal chats?!” Asked Hegseth, in a hotdog costume
Polygraphs known for being fool proof with no methods to fool that the military would have complete awareness off.
They’re not even good at detecting lies. They detect nervousness. Truth can make people nervous.
I mean the military doesn’t train you on how to cheat a polygraph, but it’s also not really necessary. The polygraph is security theater and people slip by it all the time in the intelligence community without trying.
There are unclassified quarterly audits on how effective the polygraph is at catching criminals on DOD security clearance polys. The funniest audit I saw was a guy who was smuggling drugs to Texas from Mexico since the '80s, passed a dozen polygraphs during his time doing that, and then admitted to drug running during his polygraph like 35 years later because he felt like it before retiring.
There was an old beardy white fuck who was a polygraph examiner at my job. He swore the polygraph wasn’t security theater and that it could tell when people were lying. I’d always ask him about the quarterly audits showing people “beating” the machine for years and get into fights with him. That dude also said his job was like “welfare for white people”.
Petey, the reason why people are leaking everything is cause the administration that you work in is a complete an utter fucking clown show.
People want to talk about the dumpster fire on rails. The mainstream media is loving this the slow, moving horror show as everyone wants to tune in.
Hegseth is starting to see elusive leakers in his nightmares.
Best news I’ve heard all week. I hope this guy also dreams his teeth are falling out.
Teeth falling out is a vanity dream, common among people who worry a LOT about their looks. Actors, models, government officials who need a makeup studio at the Pentagon, etc.
What if they turn into Legos after they fall out of your mouth and you build an impossible replica of the Taj Mahal out of them?
More absolute stupidity from Peter Hegseth. polygraphs don’t really mean much and they’re not even admissible in a courtroom.
Member all those shows where polygraphs, or really any kind of tech that’s advanced enough to be hard to figure out, are just called lie-detectors and treated as if they really do detect lies? Shows where the main character will poke themselves with a pin to ‘trick’ the polygraph, or some other kind of bullshit.
This is what your average lead brained alcoholic boomer accepts as true, because dey seen it on da teevee. A failed polygraph test is absolutely the kind of bullshit that his supporters would eat up as evidence.
Eh… They do actually work for most people, unless they have been trained or take drugs to beat them. There is also a small portion of the population that will just throw false positives all over the place due to anxiety. Those are the reasons it’s not admissible in court. People take “not admissible in court” to mean polygraphs don’t work at all and are a pseudoscience, but really they work for like 95% of people.
