TRUMP: Kegsbreath, Noem, Rubio & Pee Wee German have FREE Military housing because "Well, they choose to..."

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller all live in Washington-area military housing for security reasons.

Rubio and Hegseth live on “Generals’ Row“ at Fort McNair, an Army enclave, while ousted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has yet to vacate the waterfront home on a D.C. military base she moved into after supposed threats related to her job.

During his Sunday interview on 60 Minutes, one day after a shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, Trump was asked by correspondent Norah O’Donnell if he believed there was a link between the divisive political violence in the U.S. and his staff living on secure military bases because of potential threats against them due to their jobs.

“Well, they choose to,” Trump said of the living arrangements. “I’m not sure that... ah, they need to. They also have nice places, you know? Democrats did the same thing. Some of the housing on the military bases is very nice. I’m not sure they do it necessarily for violence, but probably... it’s not the worst thing in the world.”
