U.S. taxpayers just picked up the tab for an alcoholic tattooed sexual abuser's wife & kids' jaunt to Paris.

Pete Hegseth flew to France to commemorate the anniversary of the D-Day landings—and decided to bring his kids along for the ride.

The defense secretary, 45, landed in Paris on Friday with his wife and six of their kids, swiftly sparking backlash for what social media users described as a “family holiday by the looks of it.”

Hegseth is in France to participate in June 6 events commemorating the 82nd anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy, according to the Defense Department.

“The Secretary’s participation will honor the sacrifices of the valiant patriots who fought and died on the Normandy beaches to secure and defend freedom in Europe in the face of tyranny,” it said in a statement, adding that Hegseth would meet with French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu and French Defense Minister Catherine Vautrin.
