Pete Hegseth has become very good at firing generals. He is far less adept at replacing them. He fired the Army's chief in a 15-second phone call & forced out at least three officers who might have succeeded him. There is a vacuum of command at the Pentagon. Hegseth is at the source. (Link below)

Pretty sure theyre crippling us on purpose. The alphabet boys are a scrambled mess, leadership is absent, armed forces have been castrated and blindfolded by the removal of effective leaders. Pentagon is losing a culture war, and for now, at least 1 kinetic war.

Lethal force = War crimes against innocent people Drunk Pete is vile POS.....! Everyone who confirmed this POS are complicit in this regime crimes.....

IT IS VERY INTENTIONAL They’re making sure there is no one in military command to get in the way of trump declaring martial law, cancelling elections, and using the US military to kill Americans and occupy Blue states.

Trump and the GOP need Generals and Admirals that will not honor their oath, and execute illegal orders unquestionably. That is Hegseth's mission. China and Russia love it.

Hegseth is like Trump who just want yes men working for him. That could be very dangerous when he is firing professional generals and no doubt replacing them with nonentities like those in Trump's cabinet

Shut the fuck up kegseth! You’re dumber than snot!! You’re so unqualified it’s laughable. I’m hoping all the “war fighters” kick your ass back to Fox where your rock is waiting for you to crawl back under!!! Your pitiful!!!🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🤮🤮

A lot of the changes by the DUI hire seem performative and not really designed to strengthen the military, but the perception is that he is making the military better by these cosmetic changes.

Hegseth, like RFK Jr., Todd Blanche, Kash Patel, Markwayne Mullins, Marco Rubio, the rest of the cabinet, and of course Trump, is doing untold long-term damage to our institutions and our country.

He never graduated a command,staff, or war college. He even lacks enough understanding to realize how far in over his head he is. Incompetent leaders often focus on distractions as a substitute for legitimacy; hence the focus on buzzwords like 'lethality' and 'testosterone'

A big reason the Russians got crushed at the start of WW 2 was that Stalin had purged the "non-loyal" generals & officers. "Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it." - George Santayana The Pete Hegseth version: "Those who do not learn history are dumbasses who repeat it."

Exactly what Putin did in Russia to make sure he will have a Military ensuring loyalty over competency and we see how it worked out in Ukraine. USA under Trump and Hegseth follow the same dictatorial path putting loyalty and testosterone over competency and DEI. Good Luck doomed America !!!

It is adorable that people believe Hegseth is maximizing lethality (or whatever BS he claims). He has one task: Align the military to MAGA. Fire all people who may oppose. He does not do a bad job.

And who does this benefit? His paymasters in Moscow. Same for the corrupt man in the White House. Everything they do is done against the interests of the United States and its people. There is nothing redeemable about anyone in this administration. 

I can't wait to see these people be treated the way they've treated the sailors and the undocumented... I can't fucking wait... either that or when they leave their cush military housing, some good ole street justice... fuck every single one of these murdering, narcissistic cunts! I HATE them ALL.

Pete is gonna get us all maimed or killed. The USA has fucked up so many wars due to the cake eaters in charge. And now look at t who is running it. A sociopath and testerone taking narcissist. God help us all.

Senate Republicans have the power the stop this. Hegseth is just an invasive species, set loose by the people who voted for his nomination.

That's Krasnov's "Yes" man. He makes "snuff" films. He's EVIL! I read about when Hegseth reports that he makes these little short videos( this was the time they were blowing sht up in the Caribbean). Taylor worked for him and tells you how his attention span is.

I can't wait to see this war mongering, drunk, rapist, weekend fox host loser get the justice he so deserves. He has violated his oath of office, the Constitution, rule of law and due process. He is a war criminal. I hope he gets indicted, tried, convicted & jailed. What a total DISGRACE. VOTE BLUE.

Hegseth is unqualified and incompetent and a failurewell not going very well. How many Blackhawks helicopters and planes have gone down because his inability to do the job because he is unqualified and incapable 

Hey, remember the old army recruiting slogan "Army of One"? I think he does, and he wants to make it literal. If he does, he truly will be the smartest man not just in the Pentagon, but also the entire military.

They are afraid the military will come after them. They are trying to get rid of people who they think will lead the charge to remove the trump regime. After the insurrection, I'm sure there is a plan to remove trump when he crosses a certain line. He can fire all, but the implants are deep.

Because they are literally ALL MORE QUALIFIED than him to have his position and they ALL KNOW IT, including him. So, he fires them. Besides Kennedy, he is probably the cabinet member who is the LEAST QUALIFIED and will do the most damage.

There's a strong argument for an experienced chain of command in the military (or any organization). Pete Hegseth sees himself as the public face of the Pentagon, but he does not comprehend the complexity of its purpose and of its operations. The departures weaken US defense & military capability.

What did you think his purpose there was? He’s there to wreck the U.S. military. Just like Lee Zeldin is there to ruin the environment, Linda McMahon is there to lay waste to education, Bessent kills the economy, etc.

I believe Hegseth is trying to build a military establishment that will support a coup in 2028 if the Democrats take the presidency. Anyone he thinks is not sufficiently loyal is being canned.

Yes he is, this administration is a shambles They should sail away from Iran They bomb for a week and run out of bombs They can't put boots on the ground because it's suicide Israel won't offer up anything of use The US should not be fighting Israel's wars

Isn't it obvious to you Adam? They aren't interested in having generals in the Dept. Of Defense (I FUCKING REFUSE TO CALL IT THE WAR DEPT!!!). They don't want anyone with an independent mind or experience that will stand up to them and tell them, trump and Hegseth, that they don't have the faintest

Look at his face! Even he knows he's an unqualified punk...cos-playing "Alpha" energy. He's got imposter syndrome because he knows he is an unqualified hack in "Macho" drag, who drinks too much.

Hey adversaries, just give this shit-for-brains a little longer and we won't even have a military. Destroyed from within, what a dream to all who strive to end us.

I don't know if you've noticed but there's a dwindling number of people in power in DC. Smart people don't buy into MAGA's mental illness. Finding people willing to even say they do is getting harder daily. At this pace before they're done America will be run a small gang of MAGA cultist.

He is definitely vilifying US Military in the eyes of the world (unfortunately). He sounds like he is getting off on the whole “lethality of our forces” in his Iran yipping 🙄. I mean, it shouldn’t be hard to present USA as the good guy to world against the Iranian RG, but Hegseth can’t even do that.

Hegseth is a war criminal. I don't use that term lightly. His stated publicly that he would circumvent the laws, rules, and policies of the US & DoD, and made decisions that led to unacceptable civilian casualties. That weakens America.

Hegseth is a dupe whose true assignment is to break the U.S. military, while he genuinely believes he is making it stronger and more manly. His obsession with eliminating all highly qualified women and people of color from leadership has crippled military operations. He is Putin’s tool.
