EXCLUSIVE:

🚨SECRETARY OF THE ARMY’S OFFICE PLOTTING COUP AT THE PENTAGON TO REMOVE @SecWar PETE HEGSETH AND REPLACE HIM WITH @SecArmy DAN DRISCOLL 🚨

Individuals in the office of US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll have been orchestrating a Coup against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth @PeteHegseth in an effort to have him removed by President Trump and replaced by Dan Driscoll.

Over the last 2 weeks, the legacy media, which is incredibly hostile to Hegseth, has been posting puff pieces about Dan Driscoll and how he is a “rising star” at the Pentagon. Sources have told me that Jake Sullivan @jakejsullivan, the former National Security Advisor of the United States under Joe Biden, is very close friends with Dan Driscoll, and they have been friends since they both attended Yale Law School. Driscoll and Vice President Vance also met at Yale Law School, which is how Driscoll was nominated as Army Secretary.

High level sources at the Pentagon have confirmed to me that Sullivan has been planting stories in support of Driscoll because Sullivan wants Hegseth removed and replaced by Driscoll. Sullivan is worried Hegseth and President Trump are going to take action against the seditious 6, the 6 Democrat lawmakers who are now facing federal inquiries and an FBI investigation after they recorded a video in November 2025 urging US military service members not to follow “unlawful” orders, a message President Trump and Pete Hegseth have called “seditious."

One of the seditious 6 is Democrat Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander @RepGoodlander (D-NH), the wife of Jake Sullivan who goes by a different last name to hide the fact that she is married to Jake Sullivan. It is worth noting that Goodlander is a Naval Reserve Intelligence Officer, which means she could possibly face disciplinary action by Hegseth for her seditious behavior.

Goodlander and Sullivan got married in 2015. Some of guests at their wedding include Hillary Clinton, Lisa Monaco, Huma Abedin, Samantha Power, Victoria Nuland, and Antony Blinken, all of whom are anti-Trump Deep State operatives.

Sullivan previously served as Director of Policy to President Barack Obama, National Security Advisor to then-Vice President Biden and Deputy Chief of Staff to Secretary @HillaryClinton at the U.S. State Department. Sullivan also served as senior advisor for the Iran nuclear negotiations and as a senior policy advisor to Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign against Donald Trump.

Hegseth has accused these 6 Democrat lawmakers of committing sedition, and he is even considering court marshaling Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly, one of the seditious 6.

According to FEC records, Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander, the wife of Jake Sullivan, donated a max donation of $2,800 to Dan Driscoll when he ran for Congress in 2020 in North Carolina.

Why would an anti-Trump, Democrat Congresswoman married to Jake Sullivan, one of the architects of the Russia Collusion hoax, donate to a Republican candidate for Congress who would later move on to be President Trump’s Army Secretary?

Jake Sullivan played a central role in the Clinton campaign's efforts to promote the Trump-Russia collusion story, including feeding journalists details about the fabricated Alfa Bank–Trump server allegations and linking the campaign to the discredited Steele dossier—claims that triggered years of investigations and were ultimately exposed as a partisan hoax. Additionally, as I previously reported, Driscoll posted a photo of himself earlier this year hanging out with Eugene Vindman, who collaborated with his brother Alexander Vindman to impeach President Trump over false allegations.

Now, Sullivan is working with high level Army officials in Army Secretary Dan Driscoll’s office to force Pete Hegseth out and install Dan Driscoll as Secretary of War, despite the fact that President Trump loves Pete Hegseth.

I will be asking about this attempted coup on Pete Hegseth at the upcoming Pentagon Press Briefing this week.

There's a massive leap in her "investigation":

Sources have told me that Jake Sullivan @jakejsullivan, the former National Security Advisor of the United States under Joe Biden, is very close friends with Dan Driscoll, and they have been friends since they both attended Yale Law School. Driscoll and Vice President Vance also met at Yale Law School, which is how Driscoll was nominated as Army Secretary.

We don't know who these alleged "sources" are, or if they are something Loomer just made up. Maybe it's just something that she made up based on the assumption that everyone who went to Yale law are "friends". Or maybe her source made that assumption.

Regardless, none of this is verified, and could just as easily be a plan by leftists to sow discord within the Administration.

Hegseth is doing a great job. Anyone subverting his authority should be dealt with appropriately, and quickly.

It’s not the Deep State, it’s the Deep Democrats.

Please allow me to put a sharper, more definitive point on it - it's the "Deep Progressive Socialist Democrats".

Some of the "D" leaders, moreover, are on the brink of becoming full-on communists and appear eager to do so.

Actually, Loomer has finally done something useful other than pressuring Trump to solve Israel's problems.

It's the first time in months she has done anything but that.

Jakey and his wife would look good, back to back at the south end of a north-bound rope.

My lib neighbor was cheering the “fact” that “Hegseth was getting fired”.

So the Gaslight Media is stirring the pot.

Lots of people keep their last name when marrying especially if they have accomplishments, licences or degrees in their birth name. Nothing nefarious but if you are inclined to subterfuge that choice can wind up being convenient.

The different last name is a common Swamp trick.

The leaderhip and many cult members of the Democrat/Communist/now, Jihadist Party caucus are waging an all-out attack on the United States military with a direct attack on the Commander-in-Chief and now a direct attack on the Secretary of War.

Gee, I wonder where the GOP majority leadership in BOTH houses of Congress stands on this ... and what the leaders plan to do about it.
