I guess this General wasn’t on board with maximum lethality, eventuality and being a evangelical military leader.

Hegseth has to find a General that will report to the President that SecWAR’s brilliant plan to put boots on the ground in Tehran will result in very minimal causalities. /s?

Congress could stop this. They are pathetic.

Purge anyone who may not want to follow crazy incompetent plans, commit war crimes and drop nukes?

They should be glad their names will be cleared off any involvement in the coming debacle. When the funeral caskets start coming in no one will blame them.

Trump and his goons can’t have people who know how incompetent they are around.

I think the official term is purged? Saw it used a lot when a country fire their generals.

Firing smart people in the building that don’t agree with his every move and stupidity!
Can’t wait until he faces accountability one day!

Trump will fire Hegseth shortly, imo.

I’m sure they will be delighted later, when they are called as witnesses at Hegseth’s trial.

Just run a quick check how many generals and admirals Hegseth removed:
1. General Charles Q. Brown Jr. (Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff)
2. Admiral Lisa Franchetti ( Chief of Naval Operations)
3. General Jim Slife ( Vice chief of staff of Air Force)
4. General Randy George ( Chief of staff of Army)

My guess is they either declined illegal orders or were against a ground invasion of Iran.

I can’t wait for Hesgeth to be on the other foot. The guy is spineless and spreads hate in the name of Jesus. Scum.

This would have been enough to make my late Republican dad, who was a career Air Force pilot and Vietnam War veteran, to become a Democrat.

Well, guess we found the military brass not willing to be the ones to order marines to their deaths for a pedophile.

Perhaps they didn’t want to follow illegal orders.

This General is obviously being forced out because he had the audacity to stand up to an alcoholic “news” show talking head about marching tens of thousands of soldiers into a desert meat grinder in a war that is hugely unpopular with the populace. This era of the country, if it is not the last one, deserves to be ridiculed in history classes everywhere for decades to come.

The tension with Mr. Hegseth was not rooted in substantive differences over the direction of the Army, military officials said. Rather it is the product of Mr. Hegseth’s long-running grievances with the Army, battles over personnel and his troubled relationship with Army Secretary Daniel P. Driscoll, the officials said.
Over the last year, General George and Mr. Driscoll had formed a tight partnership, officials said.
Mr. Hegseth has also clashed in recent months with General George and Mr. Driscoll over the defense secretary’s decision to block the promotion of four Army officers to be one-star generals.

Two of the officers targeted by Mr. Hegseth are Black and two are women on a promotion list that consisted of 29 other officers, most of whom are white men. Mr. Hegseth’s highly unusual decision to remove the officers prompted some senior military officials to question whether they were being singled out because of their race or gender, officials said.
Mr. Hegseth had been pressing Mr. Driscoll and General George for months to remove the officers from the promotion list. But Mr. Driscoll and General George refused, citing the officers’ long records of exemplary service.
Two weeks ago, General George asked Mr. Hegseth to meet with him to discuss the removal of the four officers from the one-star list, as well as the general’s view that Mr. Hegseth was interfering unnecessarily in Army personnel decisions overall, the officials said. Mr. Hegseth refused to meet with General George about the matter, they said.
Last week, Laura Loomer, a far-right conspiracy theorist who is close to Mr. Hegseth and President Trump, posted on social media that the defense secretary was “seriously considering” removing General George. Ms. Loomer has also repeatedly attacked Mr. Driscoll.
