What is this sinister whack job up to now?
Whiskey Pete Hegseth has ordered hundreds of generals and admirals to gather on short notice at a Marine Corps base in Virginia next week, sowing confusion and alarm after the Trump administration’s previous firing of senior leaders. Via Washington Post:
The highly unusual directive was sent to virtually all of the military’s top commanders worldwide, according to more than a dozen people familiar with the matter. It was issued earlier this week, against the backdrop of a potential government shutdown, and as Hegseth’s overtly political moves have deepened a sense of distress among his opponents who fear that he is erasing the Defense Department’s status as a nonpartisan institution.
In a statement Thursday, Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell affirmed that Hegseth “will be addressing his senior military leaders early next week,” but he offered no additional details. Parnell, a senior adviser to the defense secretary, voiced no security concerns about The Washington Post reporting on the meeting, scheduled for Tuesday in Quantico, Virginia.
What if they just got up and walked out? What if they all said they had to go to the bathroom at the same time?
