Matt Crooked - What happens when u hire former βFox & Friends Weekendβ host 2 run military? He calls hundreds of generals, admirals together so he can fat-shame them, while trying to push #women out of #military service completely. That was the major takeaway from so-called Department of #War Secretary #PeteHegseth highly-anticipated meeting with top military brass this morning. #Hegseth just wanted to mock them. https://crookedmedia.substack.com/p/what-a-day-zero-chucks-given #maga #trump #politics #authoritarian #dictator
"Even in an administration that has made defending religion a core concern, Hegseth has stood out by publicly advocating his own brand of conservative Christianity β one tied to Idaho pastor and avowed Christian nationalist Doug Wilson."

"Trump calling on our military leaders to use U.S. cities as 'training grounds' for his latest attack is one of the darkest days in American history."

"Republicans are in the process of shutting down our government, our military is in our streets, perceived enemies of the crown are being prosecuted, our FBI is firing βdisloyalβ people at will, and the bedrock of any Democracy, our vote, is under attack.
Fascism is here.
Just donβt expect it to be reported that way."

"Critics are now raising concerns that Hegseth, by linking his religion to the most powerful fighting force on the planet, may be running afoul of the U.S. Constitution."

"President Donald Trump used his time at the podium to say that he instructed Hegseth to use American cities as βtraining groundsβ for the military.
Letβs repeat that: The president of the United States told his Secretary of Defense to use American cities as training grounds for the military."

"Trumpβs address was, in a word, insane. Those of us who pay attention to his comments know that he is in rapid decline, but this performance and the one recently at Charlie Kirkβs memorial service really underscore how severe it is. His inability to maintain even a semblance of attention now is startling."

Trump "was counting on getting his usual narcissistic pleasures from an audience that laughs and applauds his abusive statements. But Trump faced stony silence from these serious military professionals, even though he tried to get them to ignore their training.
'Iβve never walked into a room so silent before,' he said at the beginning. 'Just have a good time. And if you want to applaud, you applaud.'β

Just in case you doubted that the attack (and dismemberment) of Roe vs. Wade in the USA was a class issue, across the Southern States of the USA prosecutors have targeted low-income women... so not just an attack on women's rights but also an attack on the poor... And people will tell you call politics is a thing of the past?

"But letβs be very clear: The only quota system that truly undermines this nationβs ability to defend itself is the one now in place to ensure that idiots, bigots, and con menβthe very antithesis of what a professional military should representβsubvert any notion of meritocracy and rise to positions where their stupidity becomes policy."

"What [Trump and Hegseth] really mean is that they want a force of only white men who think like they do. And that is why theyβve already purged many women and minorities from positions of leadership."

"I have concluded that todayβs display of ego and bluster and falsehoods by Hegseth and Trump may have served a useful purpose after all. Every one of those generals and admirals and senior noncommissioned officers now has had personal experience with who they serve under."

"Sadly, the displays today by an alcohol-misusing, credibly accused rapist who has been fired from almost every job heβs ever held and now leads the Pentagon, and by an autocratic, corrupt, convicted felon, and sexual abuser who dodged service with fake bone spurs yet now serves as Commander in Chief, prove how far we have fallen."

"In what was nicknamed by FOX News a 'Come to Jesus' meeting, Hegseth said that the newly-renamed Department of 'War' would be purging itself of any and all vestiges of 'woke.'
And, unsurprisingly, as Hegseth struck a derivative Patton-like pose before a screen-wide American flag, he brought Jesus into his speech."

"They flew our top military brass in to get buy-in for their plan to declare war on American citizens. β¦
We are witnessing the authoritarian takeover of the nation by a duly elected president who no longer wants to bother with dissent, protests or even the First Amendment."

"Hegseth also said the rules of engagement would be reviewed. 'We untie the hands of our war fighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement. Just common sense, maximum lethality and authority for war fighters.'β

β'Should our enemies choose foolishly to challenge us, they will be crushed by the violence, precision and ferocity of the war department,' Hegseth said. 'To our enemies, FAFO,' he said referring to the acronym for 'fuck around and find out.'"
