Firing competent military officers is exactly how ISIS was created back in the day.
No other SecDef in the history of the United States has been worse for readiness and nation defense than this moron.
To all the senators who voted to confirm him, I hold you personally responsible.
For anyone who doesn’t know, U.S. military promotions are based off of past evaluations, and almost every couple of years you have a new boss. By the time you are a general you probably have had 20+ people senior to you vouch for you but because you didn’t kiss the orange tip it means you aren’t fit to be a general?
Clowns. The people in charge are clowns.
Let’s just appreciate how the only thing Petey Slurps over here is ready for is the billionaire suck off he’s got planned later this week.
Just look at this idiot. This nation’s military is being run by clowns and our enemies sharpen their knives waiting for our combat readiness to turn into a circus.
The very person who would defend be able to plan a defense of Taiwan
Breaking News: An unqualified alcoholic fires the US Navy Chief of Staff.
They are wrecking our military institutions on purpose, the same way they are gutting the federal government.
When your intention is to use the military against the civilian population of America, you really don’t need that competent of a fighting force anymore. People who follow orders blindly are enough when you’re equipped for full-on war but your opponents are unarmed citizens in street clothes.
First, fire the competent members of the army, then hire those who have no opinion of their own and are as religious as possible, and suddenly the American army is nothing more than a tool to keep the president in power. He can then use the army much more effectively against his own citizens and does not have to fear any resistance if he uses the army to enrich himself. And yet many Americans still believe they have the best democracy in the world and that other democracies need to be told about all the mistakes they are making.
Great an example of people not reading the article and reacting.
The dude that was fired was all on board with „reshaping the Pentagon“ he probably made Hegseth feel threatened or wasn’t sufficiently loyal enough but he isn’t the type we should be worried about.
The article says the CoC was a civilian and a MAGA goon. Bye.
He fired some other Trump appointee who had no prior experience. Not the biggest loss.
The Trump regime is going to fire as many military leaders as it takes until they get a military leadership that won’t have any qualms about shooting American citizens.
What is happening here is analogous to what happened during Stalin’s purges in the 1930s. He systematically destroyed his entire military leadership by relentlessly purging those officers he considered to be not ideologically aligned with his vision, regardless of their level of competence. He encouraged his intelligence agents and secret police to continually identify more and more possible dissidents in the ranks. He had them denounced, arrested, removed from their posts, exiled to gulags, and sometimes executed. He created an atmosphere of such intimidation and fear that other officers actively denounced each other to redirect suspicion from themselves. Moreover, he looked the other way while his intelligence agency tortured suspects into confessing ideological crimes and treasonable plots they’d never committed. The result? A massive destruction of military leadership competence, right at the point where he was about to need them most going into WWII. He replaced all these people with young, ideologically pure, freshly minted officers. He was fortunate that some of the old guard remained and that some of the new faces did have remarkable talent. But it definitely weakened his strategic and tactical fighting ability as they prepared for war.
these idiots making our country weaker
Gong show host fires another smarter than him.
Did he make the mistake of telling him the truth?
Very misleading title
It was a Trump appointed civilian
The commander in chief lines up all the top brass and tells them they can disagree but then there goes their career and paychecks. He’s telling them directly that they will be used against American citizens. You may get some resignations but they will comply because the signing up bonuses will be vast.
It blows me away that someone who can’t do a pull up would have the balls to tell others to get in shape. The projection is insane.
This happened in Russia under Stalin. Lavrentiy Beria purged all the top brass leaving them vulnerable to Hitler’s attacks.
Hold this sentence up to a republican and ask “swamp?”
“Together with John Phelan, a Trump mega-donor who was confirmed as navy secretary in March…”
Was he a beardo?
This is not the Chief of Naval Operations, the equivalent of the Chief of Staff of the Army, both of whom are on the Joint Chiefs of Staff. This is the Secretary of the Navy’s chief of staff. Very different positions, and the article clearly wants to imply the former.
Well we aren’t being set up to win ww3, that’s for sure.
This pathetic excuse of a human being is the person that verifies the codes that your Dear leader sends out to Nuke the world.
Well done America.
At what point is it enough? Your friends are targets, your family are targets, your neighbors are targets, your fellow americans are targets, YOU are a target. When does the evil facist regime become yours?
Elect a clown expect a circus 🤡
This is a DC Comics bunch of goons Project 2025 is puppeteering just a bunch of The Jokers lackeys. All the cabinet president the whole group. 2025 loves it as the base still supporting this idiotic gaggle of goons continue. The project knows if it can get people to follow this clown show they will follow anything. Total control total loyalty total brainwashed soldiers for the Project 2025.
*Unelected terrorists continue dismantling US politics with no pushback.
This particular chief of staff was a Trump donor and was basically useless. The chief of staff up next is just a bigger donor than the previous and just another yes man.
Purging the military leadership
He was fired because he told Donald Trump he preferred Whoppers to Big Macs and that’s not allowed.
It is hard to say if being fired by the least qualified boss that you have ever had is good or bad. The upside is you know that know you are the competent one in this situation and working for an idiot is never fun. The downside is that somehow an idiot was put in charge of you and everyone else like you.
If there was ever a time a country wanted to invade and start a war with us. It’s now. We have never been more vulnerable, weak, poorly ran and there is zero chance this administration would know any sort of defense, strategy, or chance of success.
I’m not saying Pete Hegseth is a Russian asset, but what would a Russian asset do differently?
