“Daily Show” host Desi Lydic seemed a little creeped out by the way Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth described his interactions with the service members he met during a recent trip to the Middle East.

“I met a junior airman as the sun was going down and a chill was setting on the tarmac,” Hegseth said during a Pentagon briefing on Tuesday. ”I did the same with his boss, a colonel with a heart the size of Texas and a beautiful deployment mustache to match.”

“Kinda got weirdly horny at the end,” Lydic said while giving a series of uncomfortable facial expressions. “A heart the size of Texas, an ass as tight as Idaho and a penis the shape of Rhode Island.”

Lydic also called out comments Hegseth made about achieving “regime change” in Iran.

“This new regime, because regime change has occurred, should be wiser than the last,” Hegseth said.

“Wait. New regime? You killed the Ayatollah, and they replaced him with an even more hardline son. That is the opposite of regime change. That is regime-maxxing,” Lydic said.
