Hegseth confirmed, JD Vance breaks the tie

Day 4 sounds like a good time for Vance to grow a spine and be thrown out of a 13th story window later on.

Well...

It's wild that a Fox News host is going to lead DOD. Like it's honestly hard to wrap my head around. That was one of the positions Trump actually took seriously the first time.

Im out of loop did Fetterman come out as a Republican why he got mentioned in OP as a surprise he voted no.

The dumb fuck was saying positive stuff about Trump. There were even rumors he would switch parties.

And we'll be repeating this with Gabbard, Kennedy and Pitel soon, these people know full well where this road is going to lead and they know they'll be too rich to suffer the consequences or are so deep in the Trumpism they see this shit as a good thing that won't go bad

Loving the dissenting voices on the military subreddit though

Did most veterans/ active duty go 70/30 for Trump?

These are the exceptions.

I don't know the exact numbers, but I do know that it is absolutely not an homogenous organization and there are definitely people who are not happy about donald being re-elected and *especially* aren't happy at hegseth being selected. And even of the people who voted for donald I don't think everyone expected him to choose someone like hegseth considering he had people like Mattis his first-go-round who was actually a rather level headed and experienced guy

Just the worst possible picks for every position.

GOP: *breaks government*

Also GOP: "See, government is broken! Elect us to fix it!"

So, how long before before he causes our military to collapse because he decided to kick all minorities out?

Trump will probably make a mandatory draft for white people to be thrown in the military with no age limit.

You would think the racists would want to send all the minorities off to be killed, not the white people, but here we are

New announcement from Hegseth

https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/4040940/secretary-hegseths-message-to-the-force/

"Raise our standards" means "set the bar too high for women to qualify"

"Reestablish the military industrial base" means "give no-bid contracts to Republican cronies in the private sector"

Yeah women in the military are about to be desk jobs only.

And all the rape will be swept under the rug

So not much change there.

So not much change there.

Hegseth imnediately posted on X that

DoD /= DEI

and anyone championing DEI will be fired.

Burning Question : did Hegseth send out an office memo with the same message? Or does Hegseth assume everyone follows him on X?
