President-elect Donald Trump stunned the Pentagon and the broader defense world by nominating Fox News host Pete Hegseth to serve as his defense secretary, tapping someone largely inexperienced and untested on the global stage to take over the world’s largest and most powerful military.
Whatever will please Trump’s Russian overlord.
Whatever you say, Maddow-pilled Russiagater.
Some comments are dumb enough to get a user block after just one comment!
Still erect even with the TV liar putting a TV liar in charge of your military?
Existentially stupid.
You say that like I should want the US military to be effective.
The military will be effective at what ever it’ll do. You should hope it maintains some sanity at least. Like a loaded gun won’t jam just because a crazy person picked it up.
Wrong. Give an ape a gun. They’re just as likely to kill themselves as anyone else.
Right…i think the metaphor train has derailed here.
What possible action do you think the military could be ordered to do, that will harm its capability to wage war, and will not result in even more innocent people getting killed than the regular levels of evil? Or is this a ‘acceptable collateral damage as long as its not me’ type of thing?
Disband 20% of it’s career leadership.
Zero out pentagon funding.
Withdraw from NATO.
And this is what you are arguing that trump will do? Or should do? And you are aware of its full consequences?
Claudia De la Cruz’s 2024 platform included reducing military spending by 90%, which is exactly what I’ve been arguing for years. That’s more than enough to ensure “homeland security.”
Privatize everything and lay off all government employees. Let the Department of War be run by the lowest bidder.
That sounds really bad. Apologies but if this is all sarcasm, that is lost on me. I got people arguing that Trump helping Isreal finish the genocide quickly with be good for the Palestinians who live through it, and so sarcasm is long dead.
Be optimistic, he might accidentally destroy it.

Hey, Israel is a proxy state for the US. It doesn’t control the US that way.
