Pete Hegseth said students shouldn't waste money on college and then cited Charlie Kirk as an expert on college education and called it a "scam."

On Fox News' The Five, co-host and one of Trump's personal fluffers Pete Hegseth forgot that he went to an Ivy League college and claimed that all those students were dumb and lack common sense.

During a usual Fox News segment attacking colleges as being 'woke" and indoctrination camps for Fox News, Jeanine Pirro read off a highly misleading prepared statement about a new Georgetown University study from the Center on Education and Work force,

"A report by Georgetown University 16% of high school grads earn more than an half people with Bachelor’s degrees," Pirro said. "Why waste $200K then?"

Pete Hegseth said students shouldn't waste money on college and then cited Charlie Kirk as an expert on college education and called it a "scam."

"Educational cartel that's extorting students," he said. "I have a new rule. The more, the more elite the university and advanced that a graduate is, the more the dumber are. The less likely I am to trust them."

"If you went to the Ivy league, prove to me that you have any common sense at all, he stuttered."

(Off camera, Jessica Tarlov trolled him.)

"You went Ivy league, right?" Tarlov said.

(Via Wiki, Hegseth received a Bachelor of Arts at Princeton University in 2003.[6] In 2013, he received a Master of Public Policy from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.[7])

"Yes, and I sent one of my degrees back for a reason," Hegseth replied.

WTF does it mean that he sent his degree back? He still earned it, he still went to that school and I imagine he used if for his resume.

Hegseth wants your kids to be indoctrinated in the religious way.

"Stop giving our money to [universities] and find real causes," he said. "Like K-12 classical Christian schools or places that actually form minds as opposed to indoctrination."

Hegseth is the perfect example of a paid to play shill that will say anything to promote the MAGA cult.
