If it is not obvious by now, if you are not a white male Maga sycophant you have no place in Trump’s version of his “perfect” world, which has now become our nightmare. every person who voted for him, and every person who failed to vote this is all on you.
Two Joint Chiefs fired—both historic firsts. Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., the first Black Air Force Chief, and Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the first woman to lead the Navy.
Coincidence?
Or a calculated power shift? Diversity erased, leadership reshaped. What kind of America is being built? 🌗✨
2 women fired and 1 African American man. He has no respect for anyone. These appointments had nothing to do with dei, just the best person to fill a position.
Very das that people who dedicated their lives to this country are let go without a modicum of dignity. Decisions made by draft dodger and the most unqualified Secretary of Defense imaginable
SO in a single afternoon they took out a female chief and the black head of the Joint Chiefs. Tell me again how getting rid of DEI isn't a cover for replacing qualified staff with white men.
This is why I don't say DEI. They aren't just opposed to DEI ideas. They are actively and openly anti-woman and racist. I just call them misogynistic racists.
Okay so what is the communication strategy and national response? Venting on social media does little to change outcomes (it does help to see we have a tribe though).
Actual tears for Admiral Franchetti, and our country tonight.
I'm a hard person with a lot of very soft spots... a big one being the military, specifically the Navy. Dad and Grandpa (WWII) both served. My father was buried at sea. I have many active duty and veteran loved ones. This is too much.🤬💔
Hey John, this article is very bad. You failed on every level to say that Hegseth is firing people for not being white men. This is journalistic malpractice and frankly makes you look like a collaborator to the violent fascism we are currently held underwater by
Admiral Franchetti is a patriot and a class act. I am honored to have met her.
I appalled by the tv personality’s transparent efforts to undermine the U.S. military in service to a convicted felon who parrots Putin’s lies.
It's crystal clear what's going on...fire every person of color and every woman...because they think NO person of color or woman could possibly be more qualified or prepared than the least able white Christian Nationalist.
What's Hegseth's plan? Is he going to hire a bunch of drunks and build bars instead of bases! This absolutely infuriating!!!! Cutting our Veteran's Benefits too! This will not work the way these extremists dream of. #FAKETRIOTS
This is impossible to justify. Also, behind this smokescreen the Chief Judge Advocates General of the Army, Air Force and Navy have been fired. That is also concerning. It would appear that Trump is making a move to bring the senior military leadership to heel. A highly alarming development!

He is a racist sexist white nationalist.
I mean, Hypothetically.
The experienced, career Joint Chiefs stayed in Resistance.
That’s why he hired twerp #6700 Kash Patel that summer.
