Pentagon Pete Posts Twisted Parody of Beloved Kid’s Character in Shock Strike

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has posted a twisted parody that turns a character loved by children for decades into an armed killer.

Hegseth, 45, used his social media account to share a child-unsafe version of the Franklin the Turtle children’s book franchise. The mock title ‘Franklin Targets Narco Terrorists’ shows the usually gentle turtle standing on the edge of a helicopter, firing a missile at a boat.

The vessel, which is in the throes of exploding, has an armed person on board with two other boats, seemingly carrying drugs, nearby.
