Hegseth assures fed-up mom he’ll keep ‘ten toes down’ in fight against drug traffickers

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has taken a lot of heat for obliterating foreign invaders who seek to smuggle deadly drugs into the U.S., but one mom wanted to let him know he’s on the right track.

In a fiery post, a young Southern mother who goes by “Puddin” on X defended Hegseth’s decisive actions and urged him to keep “ten toes down” in the fight against drug traffickers.

“I’m speaking to you as a mother, with two teenage daughters,” she said in a video meant for Hegseth. “And I want to say this, as clearly and loudly as possible, keep going, sir!”

She praised Hegseth for being someone to “finally” stop the “poison” from entering our country that destroys the lives of mostly teens and young adults.

“While these bleeding hearts are crying online about criminals being stopped, tens of thousands of Americans are dying from overdoses…” she declared.

“…I’ll not shed not one tear for people who profit off addiction,” she said of the traffickers who were blown to smithereens.

“This is what leadership looks like!” she said of Hegseth’s actions.

Puddin’s post reached Hegseth on X, who received the message loud and clear.

“Don’t worry, we will not let off the gas one bit. Thank you and Merry Christmas,” the Secretary of War responded.

Hegseth was met with plenty more support for his response:
