Be careful! The Division of Conflict’s newest goal is all of our childhoods … Pete Hegseth turned beloved kids’s ebook character Franklin the Turtle right into a bloodthirsty killing machine in an A.I.-generated pic posted Sunday.

Pete captioned the publish, “To your Christmas want checklist…” together with a faux ebook cowl titled, “Franklin Targets Narco Terrorists.”

The bogus cowl depicts the 6-year-old turtle from the animated sequence going “Full Steel Jacket” — hanging out of a helicopter, fortunately firing a missile at a manned boat whereas sporting a U.S. navy vest. No signal of Franklin’s finest good friend, Bear … perhaps he is storming the Capitol.

Pete — reportedly a 45-year-old man, although you could not inform from his X account — made the publish following a report he ordered operatives to “kill everyone” on a Venezuelan boat, which was allegedly carrying medication within the Caribbean on September 2.

Former navy lawyer Todd Huntley advised the publication killing any of the lads within the boats “quantities to homicide” as a result of we’re not in a professional struggle with them … and that if the alleged traffickers weren’t in a position to combat, killing them could also be thought of “a struggle crime.”
