I very much appreciated that post of yours… I am not making any kind of comparison between Christ and either Trump or Hegseth, but Hegseth go in to the Pentagon as the secretary of War and waging war against the leftists in order to cast them out, does seem like a parallel…

No disrespect intended. As they put me in Headquarter Units I learned quickly that the higher an officer’s rank the more they were caught up in the politics of the OTHER high-rankers, vying for the favor of the NEXT level of officers higher up in the command structure...rinse and repeat.

I suspect this is an ingrained phenomenon that applies to most civilian endeavors as well. A great example is how Elon marched into the newly-acquired Twitter (’X’), fired a slew of them and the operation immediately improved. Worked for Musk, it’ll work for Hegseth.
