They’ve got a runway at Quantico.

I have a suspicion that many who arrive will not attend a meeting and will not return to their commands.

“I have a suspicion that many who arrive will not attend a meeting and will not return to their commands.’

I would be perfectly OK with that.

Maybe Hegspeth is going to have each of them weighed as they come in...

Maybe he wants to meet them.

The U.S. armed forces swear an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, and to obey the lawful orders of the President and their appointed officers, rather than a person or political party.

We know that under Obama (and Biden), certain officers may feel that they are loyal to the Democratic Party, rather than to the Constitution and the United States of America.

“ I await a real news source.”

I had the same thought. Hegseth’s office or Hegseth himself can tell us.

Weigh them physically and sum up if they're warriors or politicians. I'd start with a modern-day decimation where they're forced to do laps around a track. The first ten percent falling out get to go home - for good - with their early retirement package.

The next ten percent go based on their service records: those who embraced woke ideology, trans surgeries and mandatory COVID vaccinations hit the bricks.

That's 20% gone for a good start. And if I were Hegseth I'd have that Pentagon courtyard pavilion's roof modified with a gallows; built loudly during business hours while all the leadership offices are relocated to the top floors facing inward.

After the first few traitors test the system there should be minimum trouble in the future.

Seems like an awfully big and expensive production for an “hour” long meeting. Surely, there is more to it all than just an hour long meeting.

Unless there is some compelling reason why they all have to physically travel there, why couldn't this be done through a teleconference?

PS, it also feels like not very respectful of their time unless it is something significant. Nor is is respectful of national security.

They’re being told about our upcoming invasion of a vicious Communist entity so foul it beggars description - but hey, enough about New York City...

“U.S.Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth”
“Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth”

A long time ago, Saddam Hussein gathered the leadership of Iraq to a meeting. During the meeting he named attendees, denounced them and had them walked out of the meeting. Most of those walked out were killed shortly thereafter. He had the event filmed.

While we don’t do that, this might be the start of a purge in the ranks.

Exactly, Reuters is cesspool of Trump hating children.
