WH reporter.



Military Officers, especially in the higher ranks are extremely serious and professional people. This is some silly shit and they aren’t going to partake in silly behavior in a public environment.


And they take their apolitical responsibility seriously too. Most of them are rightfully pissed that they’re being used like this. It’s insulting.


If you are a serious person with armed men under your control why would you not think about removing this guy? Trump showed what a clown he is today.


If there was any remaining military leadership who still had any respect for Trump and Hegseth, they lost it with today's embarrassing stunt.

Aren’t they all MAGA?

Enlisted, yes. Officers, no.

He’s not wrong about the standards for combat arms.

The rest of it sounds crazy.

Apparently the US is at war with the US, according to Trump during this part of this presentation.

Does Vance count as a beardo?


Yep. It's amazing that those generals say there with a straight face while this is going on, but that's a testament to their training.

There are many posters here who agree with this.


+1, this place is absolutely chock full of people who wanted Biden to send the military door to door to take guns away.

Where’d all those posters go?


Oh look more Biden derangement syndrome. Hey wake up! Trump is taking guns right now. Look how many people were arrested on federal checkpoints on guns charges. Trump is the federal government and is seizing guns and arresting people who have them.


You keep pushing this narrative. Any guns seized were illegally possessed in D.C. Do you support the illegal possession of firearms?


It isn't illegal to possess them anymore and Judge Pirro said she wasn't going to prosecute them anymore, and yet, they are still taking the guns.

Does the new "no fatties" rule apply to the cows working for ICE?

Twice a year mandatory HEIGHT EXAMS

I think it means the "height AND weight" standards --- meaning you have a certain weight standard based on your height. They are not expecting people to grow taller, or suspicious that people are shrinking out of normal height.

Simply because they may agree with this doesn’t make it legal or in keeping with norms.

Anyone fired for not meeting PT requirements should be allowed to challenge Hegseth to single unarmed combat. If they win they get to keep their job

So they are going to fire people with too much muscle?

There is a way around that. Been using it for years. Tape test. When I worked in a DOD office, the fittest guy there failed the height/weight because he was so much muscle. There is some measurement they use. (This was before the Army went "woke.") He passed and that will be the same here, I'm sure.

Prohibited people can’t possess firearms anywhere.

Stolen firearms possessed illegally are, by definition, against the law.

Possession of a handgun under the age of 21 is illegal in D.C.

Possession of a large capacity magazine by almost anyone is a felony in D.C.

Are you even remotely aware of the laws?
