'Jagoff' Hegseth

Firings are solitary and quiet, done by an HR flunky in a windowless office with 2 husky security guards present, not with hundreds of the angry, powerful fired all in one place. Too much danger in that.

Martial Law? War on Mexico, Venezuela and Central America?

Russian incursions on NATO?

Oath of allegiance to the presidency rather than the constitution?

Probably should just look at Project 2025.

https://taskandpurpose.com/news/us-mili ... ject-2025/

The nearly 1,000-page handbook includes a 41-page chapter on proposed changes to the Defense Department. The Heritage Foundation describes Project 2025 as a “playbook for the first 180 days of the next Administration.” It was produced by hundreds of experts, and the chapter concerning the Defense Department was overseen by former Defense Secretary Chris Miller, who declined to comment for this story.


At its heart, the plan claims to be an effort to unshackle America’s military from what the authors view as long-term rot of misspent budgets, politically driven policies and a lack of focus on the military threat posed by China.

“The next conservative President must end the Left’s social experimentation with the military, restore warfighting as its sole mission, and set defeating the threat of the Chinese Communist Party as its highest priority,” the text says.

Among the changes that follow a clear conservative policy agenda, Project 2025 includes expelling transgender service members from the U.S. military and not allowing them to be recruited; reinstating troops separated for refusing to get vaccinated for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19); and rescinding a Defense Department policy that covers the travel costs for troops who need to go out of state for abortions and other reproductive care – all of which are popular conservative platforms.

But Project 2025 also includes many recommendations for the military that are not talking points for cable news pundits, including reducing the number of general and flag officers while adding more soldiers, planes, and ships; eliminating the MHS Genesis System for recruiting; reevaluating how military families go through permanent change of station moves; and requiring Marine squad and platoon leaders to be staff noncommissioned officers.

US troops to Ukraine occurred to me. I don't think bogged down Russia is in a position to actually invade a NATO country and we wouldn't need all generals and admirals from everywhere for drone probes.

What if he's calling them in because he's throwing them a surprise pizza party for them and wants to tell them all he's proud and that they're doing a good job?

Whatever the purpose it will be the perfect terrorism target. Poisoned pizza?

Betting there'll be a lot of drinking involved.

[supesalemgr2]

Very puzzling. I agree with Vrede it is not a mass firing.

I just hope it is not a major military effort. Our country has enough on its plate.

[Whack9]

Seems like a really fucking stupid decision. Having hundreds of top generals gathered in a single location that's being openly announced? What?

I thought the same thing when trump and Vance and other Cabinet level officials all attended the Charlie Kirk lovefest.

Pete Hegseth throwing a pep rally

https://lite.cnn.com/2025/09/26/politic ... rior-ethos

The meeting is expected to resemble “a pep rally” where Hegseth will underscore the importance of the “warrior ethos” and outline a new vision for the US military, said three of the sources. He is expected to discuss new readiness, fitness and grooming standards the officers are expected to adhere to and enforce.

“It’s about getting the horses into the stable and whipping them into shape,” said a defense official familiar with the planning. “And the guys with the stars on their shoulders make for a better audience from an optics standpoint. This is a showcase for Hegseth to tell them: get on board, or potentially have your career shortened.”

Imagine being an accomplished general or some other high ranking member if the US military. You're being called away from your post for a photo op for a TV host's "warrior" cosplay fantasy.

"Warrior ethos"

Lmao.

[neoplacebo]

More trumpy bullshit. Very few on the planet dismiss the US miitary's' ability to deliver forty kinds of hell pretty much anywhere they want to any time they want to. This whole thing is likely a cermony in which trump himself will make a "surprise" apperance and lay down the law to all these guys who may or may not obey his orders. This is a test. Thank you for your attntion to this matter.

A reminder.

Which bothers you more - the dance or that he's a Vikings fan?

I'm okay with both.

[GoCubsGo]

Unsurprising.

Worth a full quote:

George Conway

"They said Hegseth is becoming increasingly 'obsessed' with his own security and exhibits frenzied behavior, such as fidgeting and pacing during meetings.

"'"There’s a manic quality about him. Or let me rephrase, an even more manic quality, which is really saying something,"' an insider told the outlet.

"'Dude is crawling out of his skin,' another source said."

This sounds like the behavior of a jonesing addict.

The odds of GoCubsGo and O Really winning the contest just went up.

That's just the warrior ethos within him itching to crush his enemies, see them driven before him, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

His speech to the Generals and Admiirals is being televised.

Bizarre anti-woke rant.

[GoCubsGo]

Admirals and Generals are thinking I traveled 8,000 miles for this shit?
