Pete Kegsbreath should resign, he’s utterly unqualified for any position, let alone SecDef.

Total waste of [TAXPAYER] money. That’s our money.

I actually sorry for all top commanders on the other side of the hemisphere that had to fly all the way to DC to be told “fucking Man-up”

This was totally a case of he got drunk and invited everyone then had to think of something to say.

Good. The more the realize how ridiculous this administration is, the more like they take the side of democracy when needed. (Pretty much needed now.)

NO they don’t. They know better than to say anything. LA Times owner supports Trump and seemingly wants to create an excuse to fire generals here.
The article actually says:
“More like a press conference than briefing the generals,” another attendee told Politico. “Could have been an email.” A third called it a “total waste of money.”
But if you notice the attendee doesn’t mean it was any of the general officers.

That was a zoom call. They just care about optics, that’s ALL they care about

MAGA just royally stepped on their dick in front of the highest, highest US military brass. That actually makes me very happy. I honestly feel a bit safer than I did yesterday.

The General’s are going to need to start getting a little louder because people are getting scared. Trump is talking about turning the military against the left and we hear silence from those who could stop it.

DOGE wants children in other parts of the world to starve.
But flying top brass from around the world and supplying astronomical security for a meeting that could have happened on Zoom is apparently ok.

They’re just feeling it out. Seeing how far they can push controversial orders and whether or not generals will obey those orders.

“No more walking on egg shells”
They can’t call a black man the N word to his face, or use slurs against women and gay people. Thats what walking on egg shells means to them.
They believe everyone else thinks the same too. Like it’s difficult to not be a racist prick, and everyone is just bursting to say what they really want to say. Fascists fucks. Can’t wait till consequences are real again. I base all my hope and optimism on consequences coming back someday.

If my boss treated me the way those clowns did, I’d hand in my notice. Can’t imagine tolerating that kind of idiocy.

And a total waste of credibility all around the world: internationals media noticed talks about fitness, turning US army against their own people homeland, warmonger brainfarts, bigotry stuff and some random dementia rambling from trump.
Another very very beautiful circus act to the world attention. Great job.

All of that time and money just to get a pep talk that was televised anyway. I can’t imagine this is good for morale being lectured to by an ex National Guardsman/Weekend TV show host and a draft dodger.

Speak louder generals, step up against MAGA.
Edit: aw a MAGA downvoted me. My fee fees are so hurt. Just know your king Trump will eventually leave. Either in handcuffs or a casket. Either is fine.

Honestly I think it was a good thing that all of these flag officers got to see these assholes in person if they haven’t had the chance. It’ll provides some context for some of the fucked up orders these guys will inevitably get.

Imagine having to leave your post to watch a drunken failed Fox news host moron lecture you about warrior Ethos.
The sad thing is that the Military knows this is a farce but won’t do anything about it.

Not to mention a total lack of respect.

But listening in person to a speech about how to conduct culture warfare by the leader of the Department of Culture War is very important. Don’t they know?

Tens of millions wasted on a pep talk.

Can you guys imagine the collective aneurism MAGA folks would have if Biden or Obama suggested we use red rural areas as training grounds for the US military? After sending national guard to those places no less?
I will not be voting for some push over dem who campaigns on unity after this. I will throw my full support behind anyone brave enough to stand up to them and hold this administration and its cult followers accountable.
