Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth held a press conference yesterday morning following Operation Midnight Hammer, where he bombed Iranian nuclear facilities. B-2 Bombers from Missouri were successful in executing this precision strike against Iran’s nuclear program. Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow were all hit in a package that was amassed with absolute secrecy. Hegseth commended our brave boys who piloted the aircraft, which led to this laughable fact-check from The New York Times. Like, c’mon, guys. And they weren’t alone—Fox News also jumped in:

Pete Hegseth said “our boys” in B2s are on their way home from Iran.
New York Times responds: “yet, both men and women have trained to fly them.”

And here’s a perfect response to this lunacy:
OH SHUT UP ALREADY. As a 29-year military veteran, do you know how many times I’ve been lumped into being “one of the guys”?!?! And you know what? I DIDNT GET OFFENDED.
I might also add that maybe there are only 1-2 female B-2 pilots, which might tip off people who, exactly,…
