“… Sen Jim Banks (R-IN) said on CNN that Fox host Pete Hegseth is more qualified than General Lloyd Austin to be Secretary of Defense because Austin is “too woke.” “
Hegseth is not qualified to run DoD. Not because of his many moral failings, but because he has A) never run anything that large and complicated, and B) because his record running veterans groups is lousy.

And, to further clarify, Hegseth’s moral failings are the easy target, but the wrong target. The GOP has decided that moral failings are actually a qualifying attribute (see, Trump, Donald J., etc.). The excuse that he will have qualified people below him? Nope. He’s qualified to be the middle manager of an already successful division of some company, in which his team’s competence and his bosses’ oversight will prevent any serious damage.
