RINO Thom Tillis Rails Against Plans to Livestream Nidal Hasan Execution, Says Hegseth “Needs to Get the Hell Out” of War Department (VIDEO)
October 11, 2026
RINO Senator Thom Tillis (NC) on Sunday lost it over the Trump Administration’s plans to live stream the execution of Fort Hood jihadist mass shooter Nidal Malik Hasan on December 3rd, arguing it’s one reason why War Secretary Pete Hegseth should not be in the cabinet.
Hegseth, he said, “needs to get the hell out of the Department of Defense.”
Hegseth announced last week that the execution of convicted Fort Hood Islamist terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan will be public, with American soldiers carrying out the firing squad at the very military installation where Hasan murdered 13 people and wounded 32 others in 2009.
“An Army major betrays his country, radical Islamist, kills a bunch of Americans at Fort Hood. Of course, we’re gonna do it at Fort Hood. We’re gonna do it on a Thursday. We’re gonna do it at 1 o’clock, which is when he did it,” Hegseth said. “We’ll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it’s public, because people need to understand that there’s serious consequences for these types of things.”
However, Tillis decried Hegseth, ridiculously claiming that the execution is “another example of where U.S. lives, American lives, will be put at risk.”
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Tilis went on an unhinged rant earlier in the interview, claiming that Trump’s deal with Russia to buy diesel fuel will also put American lives at risk. He’s just attacking everything Trump to sell his book.
"Terrorist organizations will use this as a recruiting tool. It will radicalize other people," he argued. "And this is not who we are. Look, the Fort Hood shooter should be put to death, but there is a — there's a way to deal with this that's proper, and there's a way to deal with this that's more improper than I have ever observed in my life."
He then whined about Hegseth, saying, "This is not who we are, and it's another example of why Pete Hegseth and all of his bravado needs to get the hell out of the Department of Defense, because he is a failed leader, and we need strong leadership supporting President Trump right now."
Asked to expand on his criticisms of Hegseth and whether he regrets voting to confirm him, Tillis teased his book again, bragged about "supporting presidents' cabinet picks dating all the way back to Obama," and then purported to care only about President Trump's legacy.
"I probably was a little subtle in my book — I dedicate a whole chapter to my biggest regret, so I think it's pretty clear that I regret that decision," he said.
"I made a mistake. I've admitted that I made a mistake, and now I want to try and put somebody in place that will help the president's legacy and make Americans safer. And that is not Pete Hegseth."
WATCH:
Trump recently spoke about the plans to live stream the execution, saying, “they want to do that because they want to set an example. I wasn’t involved in that decision, but I understand the decision."
"He went in and killed 14 people; he badly, badly wounded 22 people — walked into a room, just started firing at everybody, screaming things that he shouldn’t be screaming. I guess they want to have it serve as an example, and I understand that very well,” he added.
