I see headlines on The Hill, NY Times and AP News but nothing (NADA) on FauxNews. Am I missing something?

You can tell from how quiet the brass is what they think of this.

Started with platitudes, but what he is saying now is excellent. He is changing the culture. Much of this is common sense and appropriate for the military. Key point: standards.

Standards? Appearance based standards and outright sexism. How men look and lets get rid of women.

I'd expect nothing more from a Fox news host and this admin. It's all about appearances and BS and not about quality or competence or real substance.

FFS If you are on board with these morons, you are part of the problem. This country is going into the toilet and these guys are worried about beards.

A man (Hegseth) who supports church leaders discussing repealing the 19th amendment should NOT be president. You do not take away a woman's basic right to self defense. Hegseth is anti freedom.

Got it.

I’m sure that he gets enough at home.

Only women who can pass the highest male standards will be allowed to join/stay.

That works out not so great when you’re doing a ton of your warfare in highly gender segregated societies, as we learned in the early 2000s.

Seriously. I will never understand what Daddy Trump did to so damage this guy.

Have you read the book by Mary Trump — Donald’s niece, who is a licensed psychologist?

This perspective makes a lot of sense. If it’s true, hopefully it means that Vance will have it out for Hegseth and will find a way to get him removed.

I think my takeaway from this speech is that Pete Hegseth is going to challenge JD Vance for the GOP nomination in 2028, and my takeaway from recent anonymous leaks about Hegseth is that Vance knows it.

He’s done, thank goodness. Hoping they disperse and reduce chance of DC bombing

This is an abomination and I am pretty confident most of the top brass see it the same way.

Then they should resign their commissions. Regardless of how “right” the brass may be, they serve at the pleasure of the democratically elected civilian leadership of the country. If they really believe this is an abomination, then they need to resign.

They serve to protect the Constitution of the United States — against all enemies: foreign and domestic. Right now, the supposedly “democratically elected” civilian leadership of the country appear to be domestic enemies of the Constitution.
Whether anyone now employed by the government decides to stay or decides to resign should be guided by their assessment of their ability to protect the Constitution. There’s an amendment in there just for this type of situation — well, for the parts of this situation that involve people unable to fulfill their oaths of office properly. Yes, “properly” is carrying a lot of weight and value judgements here — as does the Constitution.

Hegseth... is fine with his son getting bullied and hazed.

Got it.

They just wanted to feed their egos by proving they can order flag officers around.

It’s insulting.

Is he still babbling on? I want to know when they are dismissed so I can feel a bit safer. Every plane overhead freaks me out
