I agree with everyone who pointed this out. The fool who wrote this went completely off the rails coming out of the station. tRump is a figurehead with a rubber stamp, this has Project 2025 written all over it.
Had to stop reading halfway through His arguments seem to be all about making Trump look bad, not about the damage done to National Security, lives of troops he put at risk with the leaks, etc.
I'm just saying this the first time in history the National Guard has been Sec. of Defense and Chair of the Joint Chiefs. They weren't even on Joint Chiefs until 2012. No offense to the National Guard, but I don't believe they are quite qualified, nor tested enough to be in these command positions.
How they remain deluded sycophants even after all he described and clearly more is coming beyond the second illegal chat is just amazing in its stupidity.
The First Felon's lickspittles have their own little kingdoms to rule over as chaotically as they can. None of them are team players that anyone would want to work with or for.
EVERYONE knows this administration is full of incompetent, useless individuals that cling to Trump tightly as they aren't qualified to work ANYWHERE else.
Exactly the paragraph that stopped. "Trump deserves better." He picked the moron, alcoholic, abuser who was unqualified on every level. I couldn't read to the end of the piece. I'm still not sure it isn't a spoof. The author's sycophant ramblings are nauseating. What was the purpose of this mess?
One reason the American people gave Trump a conclusive victory last November is that he’s not a go-along, get-along creature of the Beltway … but rather a shrewd businessman who expects results and holds his team accountable for serious mistakes that occur on their watch.
“Trump's unsuccessful business ventures have included numerous casinos & hotel bankruptcies, the folding of his New Jersey Generals football team, and Trump University. He and his businesses have been involved in more than 4,000 legal actions, including six business bankruptcies. 💯Genius!
"We accomplished a lot together, including bringing new, largely more conservative, media outlets into the Pentagon press space, and ensuring the public understands Trump’s commitment"
I truly have hard time to accept the overall opinion of this… But at the end, he want to see accountability in the institution like Pentagon, and that is something I agree…
I don’t get these fake Trump worshippers. Not stand up guys for sure. Pretty wishy washy while spilling the beans. Reeks of I’m better than the others. No you’re not.
A total distraction would be Trump and Hegseth's cut off balls rolling across the floor in the Veteranarian's surgery!
America deserves nothing less, and arguably more!
Worse than CYA but that’s in there. He’s using paralipsis to maintain plausible deniability against trump while attempting to complain about him, not realizing that this tactic won’t work for out for him.
When is this no longer incompetence, this could be someone who is deliberately leaking classified information to a third party who will then pass it on to a foreign government. Can we really rule this out. How do you catch a mole when the leaking is this rampant.
What do you expect when one head case is choosing other head cases to govern. Duh! This is what chaos and anarchy look like. He one of the most malevolent malignant people imaginable.
The DOD is already in disarray, the polar opposite of military order and discipline. The specter of its collapse should strike profound fear to everyone in this country. Don't be deluded into thinking that our enemies are not paying attention and are not plotting strategies.
The description could apply to the entire administration though. Besides being just plain evil, Trump's 2nd administration is doomed to fail based on his general incompetence.
The author is a vile liar who lied many times about President Biden and his Defense Secretary and what was done under him and he also blatantly lied about former traitor Trump officials as well.
He's not believable & you shouldn't have posted this.
Ron, consider that Hegseth isn't totally to blame. Elon has infiltrated much of our government secure coms, so that they aren't secure either. I think Hegseth thought he was doing the "right" thing by using Signal judting it was somehow safer than the Whitehouse or Pentagon servers.
We will have to deal with the MAGA and ICE Gestapo. Remember the French Resistance fighters, and all resistance fighters from all countries who opposed and fought and currently fight fascism. Freedom must be fought for.
Wow, these words from a rump and hegseth sycophant are frightening; he thinks they are both great and just what the country needs.
He only wants hegseth ousted because his fealty- and total misunderstanding of the character and malice- to rump is greater.
Yes indeed, FRIGHTENING.
Whatever, hog fat, dehydrated spaghetti water, Brylcream, Vaseline?, ole Pete there is putting in his hair, maybe he needs to let up on that cuz it appears it's gettin in his brain.
“I am a longtime backer of the secretary. In December, when his Senate confirmation was in jeopardy, I wrote an opinion piece arguing strongly that he was the best man to shake things up at a Pentagon in need of serious reform.”
Kiss ass piece written for an audience of one to convince him he would be “strong” to fire Hegseth. Says everything we need to know about all their weaknesses.
The last few paragraphs were him saying how Trump was great, Biden done heaps wrong and Trump deserves more support.
Ah, no he does not. Everyone in leadership positions was his pick, he wanted them there. It's not that hard to pick someone with experience.
Exactly. And he admits he's a supporter of the Secretary. It's never their fault. Not once does he place blame. Now it's unnamed advisor who gave him bad advice.
Ullyot thinks he is the smartest guy in the room 🤣 - POTUS is no shrewd businessman. A conman grifter with a marketing vision for the TRUMP brand yes, but if you treat the DOD like a septic tank and fill it full of shit, it will need to be emptied - 🇺🇸 Americans deserves better!
It's time to speak truth to power! 🗳️ Rally together this April 29! demand truth and transparency and show our strength in unity. Take part in coordinated protests all across America. Change starts with us!
What is this garbage? Trashing Hegseth but also saying they’re BFFs, sucking up to Trump, dropping that he’d been offered a great position but declined…I’m sure it’s total chaos there and of course Hesgeth is entirely unqualified, but this piece is completely odious.
Trump "deserves better"? Trump chose him and stridently refused to withdraw the nomination despite massive pushback. Shame on every senator who voted yes on this unqualified unmitigated disaster.
The Trump administration will fail from within. You hire drunks, clowns, idiots, etc. plus a narcissistic man child for President eventually they will devour themselves.
Who could have guessed that a drunken, rapist, former TV host who says he hasn't washed his hands in 10 years would turn the Defense department into a hellscape.
Somebody thinks he is line for Hegseth's job or some other promotion. He is paving the way for Hegseth's firing without Trump looking like he is bowing to pressure.
Other than the conclusion of Hegseth is incompetent and should be fired, I don’t share any bit of the same reality with the writer. Wins? Holds people accountable? Businessman? Trump?
ANYONE who is “a longtime backer” of Hegseth, truly believed he’d be the “best man” to lead the Pentagon & even penned an op-ed backing his nomination is either a total MORON or a person who has very POOR JUDGMENT and LOW STANDARDS!
Trump doesn’t deserve anything— we, the American people, deserve better from his senior leadership.
Unfortunately, we’re not going to get better because no intelligent, competent, principled person will ever agree to work for Trump. He will only ever get people like him to join his admin.
My sister works in the Department of Interior and she said that it's a very. Stressful sh!t show. They are allowing her a lay-off but she still might lose her 28yr pension. 🤬🤬🤬
I'm truly sorry for American people, what a hot and dangerous mess! And to state that "big accomplishments" by Hegseth was bringing conservative media outlets to Pentagon and "rebuilding" military (aka firing DEI hires) is just laughable. JFC, it's so much worse than anyone could have imagined.
When you hire unethical people, why are people surprised when it goes off the rails? There is no replacement for integrity and Trump State Television is full of the same. There’s a reason God gave you two eyes and ears. What do you see and hear? I hold the senators who confirmed him responsible.
Going to tone down my dislike for Hegseth. Did some research about his military service and believe he suffers from PTSD and self-medicates by constant alcohol use thus unable to function properly. He needs proper psychological care. He must be removed from DOD now before he gets people killed.
It's not worth reading. The guy is clearly sucking up to Trump hoping to take Hegseth's job. He lost me at bragging about # national security wins during Trump 1.0, all due to T's "shrewd" business acumen. How many bankruptcies to get to "shrewd" ?

MAGA is selfishness and felating the 'dear leader' all the way down.

Bitch please.

That's a funny way to say that Trump accepts no blame for anything that goes wrong.
Either he’s doing a good job or he’s making a huge mess. Either you support him or you can’t support him any longer.
We all know the answers here. Uyylot seems to be cowering in fear of the consequences of truth.
trump PICKED him. Along with all the other incompetents.
trump is the one who should be held accountable.
“You get what you pay for”.
You’re paying for a Secretary of Defence.
But all you’re getting is a “FOX Talk Show Host”
You made another bad choice there Fat Albert!
A second SignalGate
Why is Hegseth still in his position from the last SignalGate???
Investigations
He needs to be fired
“I’m an apologist but first and foremost I’m a self-preservationist.” Let him rot in the MAGA graveyard with the rest of ‘em.

He only wants hegseth ousted because his fealty- and total misunderstanding of the character and malice- to rump is greater.
