Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

In Grand Junction Colorado (a conservative town in a largely rural conservative district) over 400 people showed up at a town hall to voice their concerns to Representative Jeff Hurd. Hurd has yet to hold a town hall or appear publicly on the western slope. #cd3unherd

Issues with LTG Caine, USAF, as JCS Chairman: 1. Involved with Joshua Jared’s brother) Kushner’s company. 2. Would need to recalled & would require a waiver (as a recent military retiree) to serve. 3. Did not hold previous assignments at the 4 star level as a service chief or TCC as is the norm

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

Brace for impact as DoD will also start to relieve senior uniformed leaders in the weeks to come. We need a SECDEF who brings more to the table than push-ups and a history of alcohol abuse. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

“The strategy targets both the Army’s active-duty cohort and the National Guard and calls for deactivation of four Stryker brigades, six infantry brigades and two aviation brigades.” Look at substantial cuts to EUCOM and AFRICOM as well. www.stripes.com/theaters/eur...

🇩🇰 Denmark today increases the defence budget with 50bn DKK (6.7bn EUR) plus 10bn DKK (1.3bn EUR) extra per year until 2033 going 2.4% of GDP in 2024 to 3.2% in 2025. As discussed probably 50bn more is needed for acquisition.

Firing probationary DoD civilian hires, cutting support functions for uniformed service members, and having a brain donor serving as SECDEF. People will vote with their feet and the best and brightest in uniform (commissioned, warrant, and NCOs) will be the first to leave.

Firing probationary employees is senseless. Probationaries are: -New to their position -Make lower salaries -Recruited to bring in new talent -Far LESS likely to be dogmatic They're being fired because they have fewer protections. Not because this will improve government efficiency or cut costs.

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸

Trump has fired people who process prescriptions by mail. So if you’re a veteran, order your meds earlier than you normally would. They could take a while.
