So he's sick of these offices doing their jobs and telling him things are illegal? Yay, a purge.
This administration is made up of people that haven't been told no or seen consequences for their actions since they were kids, most likely. The concept of being held to legal principles is alien. It's all just red-tape and legalese some nerds put together to stop them from g...
Remember, service members: you are legally obligated to *not* follow illegal orders. Use it as a defense in court. The fart is president right now, but next year he’ll probably be impeached. Even if not, he’ll likely be dead soon (old and unhealthy) and there will come a re...
That's not really what's happening here. Disclosure: I used to be in Army JAG so I'm biased. Here's what he's proposing: >Letting civilian lawyers handle nonoperational assignments, including acquisition, civilian personnel, intellectual property, real estate, environmenta...
Claims military lawyers are sidelined doing civilian law work after sending 600 or so to the DoJ as temporary immigration judges. Moron.
A psychopath is in charge of DOD
Not to mention the litigation hes driving by encouraging commanders to deny religious waivers for beards in very clear violation of RFRA or how they fired so much of the civillians supporting the services
Agreed. Aside from that, clearly defining roles and responsibilities (the given reason for the change) typically improves quality and efficiency, but this restructuring sounds like it will add more ambiguity to the current military legal system and (as stated below) will incr...
he was bullied as a child, wasn't he.
No he was wealthy and privileged
He was definitely bullied while in the military and is mad at all the people who were actually competent.
I think he was the bully and never saw consequences.
Every Kegsbreath speech follows the same format... "For [too long/## years]... [something something something woke]...No more [demeaning childish description of some function or group of people]...From now on we will [something something something lethality] " Couple this wi...
And you can see him fighting his own body from instinctively wanting to give the Nazi salute.
While I somewhat agree. His hand game is better than Jeffries.
Because he knows he is a war criminal
this right here
is that a starbucks cup? Is pete woke now?
I can't tell but I hope they spat in it.
No, this is the one that says "Merry Christmas". He is just demonstrating that DOD has won the bloody War on Christmas.
ChatGPT, write me a speech about LETHALITY that denigrates the radical left woke crowd and includes as many buzzwords as possible.
“No more moral ambiguity.” Baby girl Petey, moral ambiguity is long gone.
Joke’s on him. The Legal offices are already way understaffed as it is. No attorney does this work because it pays well. They do it out of civic duty, and cutting them loose is going to get the DoD sued a LOT more than it currently is.
I didn’t think this dip💩would make it more than a year. Sadly, I was very wrong. It’s going to take a long time to fix was this domestic terrorist has done to the military. I can’t write what I wish for his future.
To be fair he fucked up pretty much immediately with the signal chat leak. That would have cost him his job during a competent administration. Plus he was never qualified to begin with and never should have made through confirmation. So you weren’t wrong, you just underestima...
Whether it was right or wrong, troops in the Vietnam war had a way of tempering the negative leadership qualities of gung ho officers who where only out for glory at the expense of their people's lives. It's harder to justify sending your troops to die needlessly, if that deci...
I'll never take this man seriously. Nor would I take anyone walking around in public with a cringe-ass flag hanky and matching belt buckle seriously either. What a pathetic weirdo.
Shouldn’t he be focusing on the war
Too much money, too much time, too much responsibility Not enough wisdom or intelligence. Hegseth is dumber than frozen shit
He carries himself with the air of a man forever enraged and bitter over the fact he was born 40 years too late to participate in My Lai.
That asshole is the face of the American military.
Uhhh... didn't you FIRE ALL OF THEM & all forms of OVERSIGHT when you showed up & fake renamed the "department" 🙄
Looking for someone else to blame?
How about we do the cabinet first
Is that an American flag belt buckle? That's pretty rich considering he's a traitor to the country.
Yankee Doodle Dandy continuing to be an embarrassment to this nation
Distraction from his spending campaign?
how about a "ruthless" "no excuses" investigation and punishment for the people who ordered the strike on a school in iran.
Man, I can't wait until Colin Jost mocks this on SNL this week!
Imagine the level of paranoia amongst these lemmings now. They are fucking up left and right and gas lighting about it. But they know the worm will turn eventually. They can’t ride this bender forever. The sobering consequences get closer and closer to piercing their bubbles t...
Paving the way for the coup
This guy warcrimes.
 What I can't do what I want?!
He’s so fucking stupid and fake
Seeing as this is fednews and not leopardseatingfaces, I expected a comment or two not entirely disapproving of the man. Nary a one. What a fucking shitpump.
Our DoD office said Insider Threat training is no longer required, lmao.
