The Daily Mail reported Wednesday on a plot by a group of military officers and civilian Pentagon staff to force Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth out of office through a public pressure campaign based on a letter signed by Pentagon insiders.
Citing the usual deep state concerns about Hegseth’s leadership, priorities and performance, three of the coup plotters spoke on background to the Daily Mail about the scheme (excerpt from long detailed article):
Three Pentagon officials — two military and one civilian, and each with at least 20 years in the department — spoke on the condition of anonymity.
…The three Pentagon officials we spoke with told us that a small group of their colleagues — including officers from all military branches except for the Coast Guard — and some civilian workers met at a private home in May to discuss how to get the word out about what they view as Hegseth’s incompetence.
They agreed the message would be stronger coming from current rather than retired DOD personnel.
Attendees jointly decided to give themselves a few months to agree on the wording of a joint letter that they would either send to the news media, run as an ad in a major newspaper or launch online via social media or a newly created web site.
They set a deadline for mid-July — this week — to finalize the letter so it could be made public by next Friday, the 25th, which marks Hegseth’s half-year in office.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Easier to get the low hanging traitors.
“”This is like that fat Urkrainian agent that tried to sink Trump for some phone call.””
Ah yes... the infamous little Vindman twerp.
Mighty handy. Kind of them to help with the purge and save taxpayers some cash by flushing their careers down the toilet. It should not be hard to identify them. Our military is getting better every day.
Only in the winter. Rotate them out to a nice warm spot on the equator in the summer. If they survive five years of that, the rest of their lives in Leavenworth will seem like paradise. I know. I'm too much of a softie.
Their complaints are petty whining.
GREAT they have now outed themselves let the firings begin!!!
Yeh, someone leak those names so Hegseth can fire them. 😉
They swore to defend the Constitution of the United States.
This action is unconstitutional.
This is what I found on Chat GPT:

To me it’s kinda weird he went to the left, but I guess de-evolving does happen.
According to Chat, he still runs it, but keeps super low profile. It’s all very odd.
Another possibility is that the 2 officers in question are already riding a desk until their retirement date. In which case, they are just getting a final word before the door hits them in the hind-parts.
I think these seditionists need to experience a military tribunal at GITMO.
Pete Hegseth doing a good job a group of slackers seeing their empire crumbles Easy street sign removed pain ensues.
