Description

President Donald Trump is standing by his embattled Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, and brushing off concerns even as new details are emerging about the military information Hegseth shared in a second group chat on Signal that included his family and friends. Hegseth is also dealing with the fallout from a leadership purge at the top of the Pentagon as he cashiered three top advisers who have lengthy histories with the Defense Secretary. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how the knives have come out for Hegseth, demanding his resignation, and why powerful interests at the Pentagon may be eager to see him go — and it has nothing to do with the so-called “Signal” controversies.

"They were never told their wars are stupid". Based. Kurt's point about the Pentagon and "disarray" is bang on.

If you understood that our standing Army can't be used, has never been used for National defense, you might start asking who the military works for.
