He’ll say it’s for all the other people but it’s really all for him

this is so much worse.........this scares the bejeebers out of me. we are supposed to have an independent military.
this is so much worse......

Is to only the Constitution. It’s all in writing. Being in the EPSTEIN FILES doesn’t give a President the right to alter your oath to protect his ass.

at this meeting?

How can we expect the military to follow only lawful orders if the good people are purged and the rest are either autocrats or just afraid?

A faux news personality confirmed by all but three Republican senators is screwing up on his job as one of the most important officials in the country?

Who could have predicted?

What this means is that people asked for a reason, and his office gave them something that could be a mandatory video.

What do they call it when a big incident happens, and everything halts while plane parts are checked, or people take a day off for training. A stand down?

This seems like that but on steroids (by which I mean excess testosterone!)...across branches...with no critical incident identified.

"Generals gathered in their masses
because they're led right now by asses.
Giant egos that plot disruption,
Threatening them with force reductions
Oh Lord yeah"

All abord!

Fuck him.

Pete Kegbreath wants to show Daddy what a tough, important guy he is because he can make all those generals come to his show.

What an absolute punk.

And a lack of vigrous audiance aplause for him will be seen as a demotive action.

Not getting drunk and fighting in bars when you aren't doing the mano y mano
There's a responsibility and an awareness that goes along with successful "lethality", and Kegsbreath doesn't seem to understand much more than the fussin and fighting part.
It's obvious he thinks Sun Tzu and Eisenhower were wusses.

All of our high Commanders are vulnerable in one place. What could go wrong?

Epstein files.

are often vastly different. So we'll see

I’m reminded of Trump’s stupid question from his first term when he asked why gave nuclear weapons if you can’t use them and his even stupider idea of firing a nuclear weapons into a hurricane.

blah blah blah blah blah blah blah ...

I'm sure when the Generals & Admirals sit through Hegseth's speech,
they will only hear Charlie Brown's school teacher.

world wide and put the country in great danger. What better time for an adversary to stage an attack than while our forces are running on idle (while the boss is away their no. 2 is very seldom willing to make consequential decisions) with their commanders off being lectured by a drunkard.

Here is a historical tidbit. On June 6, 1944 almost all of the top German command staffs were away from the western front because they thought the weather was too bad for the Allies to stage an attack. Some were at conferences. Some were partying in Paris. Rommel was in Germany celebrating his wife's birthday. The fact that Rommel was absent was especially disastrous for the Germans. If he had been in Normandy in the early hours when the first paratroopers arrived he would have put the entire coast on alert. And even more importantly, when the first landing forces arrived, he was the one general officer that would have ignored Hitler's standing orders that armored forces could only be deployed on his orders. Rommel would have immediately ordered all of the available Panzer forces and SS formations to Normandy while Hitler slept in his drugged stupor. Rommel's bold move would have stood a good chance of driving the Allies back into the sea. The Germans would have been the victor on the Longest Day. History would have unfolded in a completely different way. The Russian's westward march would have stopped at the English Channel.

Trump and his idiots are putting all of us in profound danger.

...and brightest who were intelligent and accomplished enough to get into West Point, Annapolis or the Air Force academy can take such a twit seriously.


This is not going to end well.

????????????????????

That’s pathetic.

pete is small minded, mentally stunted, and is not truly a military "man".

However, like so many of the incompetent appointees in this farce of an administration, he seeks to hide his inadequacies by "appearing" to be decisive, in charge, and self-assured.

He probably is clapping his hands in glee thinking "Look how they jump when I speak! Look at them shrugging off the inconvenience! And all for me! Look! I'm a big man!"

Still, we cannot forget Stalin's purges, Mao's indoctrination, or the Katyn Forest.

Figures. They are as vain and self-absorbed as they are corrupt.

Want all those senior officers together and give them have a chance to plan a military coup against the Administration?

There are roughly 800 generals and admirals spread out over the globe. Hegseth ordered them to gather on short notice next week, for reasons unknown.

White House pretends Pete Hegseth’s mystery meeting is normal. It really isn’t. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
