So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

To anyone reading this. I've found a good ratio for mental health restoration is this! For every 30 minutes of Trump news, watch ONE segment BBC's THE REPAIR SHOP! It's on BritBox, Prime and others! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

Just recorded a podcast with @samsteindc.bsky.social on the military purge. Should be up soon. We try to explain the broader significance of replacing these senior military officers: Trump wants to break all institutional constraints at the power agencies, and secure personal fealty to him.

This military purge is about Trump installing loyalists in every senior role, just as he filled his cabinet with sycophants and enablers willing to carry out his dangerous and illegal orders. This won’t end well for our country.

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

Much media coverage: These Pentagon moves are unusual but Trump's within his rights and wants supporters of his America First agenda. The truth: How is removing the JAGs relevant to any agenda? New, Hegseth-selected JAGs are needed for total loyalty to Trump and finding all his orders lawful.
