EXCLUSIVE: How the Department of Defense under @PeteHegseth is at risk of possibly being subverted and obstructed by Earl Matthews @EarlMat55106636, the nominee for General Counsel of the DOD @DeptofDefense
As the general counsel for the National Guard, Earl Matthews was the lawyer involved in dismissing Pete Hegseth from the DC national guard over false accusations that Hegseth has a “white supremacist” tattoo. Now, Earl Matthews has been nominated to be Hegseth’s top lawyer at the Pentagon, which is another vetting failure.
Today, April 08, 2025, Earl Matthews, who is essentially John Bolton and Mark Milley’s errand boy, faced the Senate Armed Services Committee for his confirmation hearing as the nominee for General Counsel of the Department of Defense. If he is confirmed, Matthews would be the Pentagon’s top lawyer.

Seriously??? Know way near, but there are still some blind spots.
Who nominated Earl Matthews?
Some of us saw it coming long before it got here. But we were stoned for even mentioning it.
Here is another one to watch...

If he had anything to do with giving legal advice regarding the Mational Guard refusing to deploy to the USCapitol on J6 as requested or to do with Milley singlehandedly declaring that Trump was not allowed to act as CINC that day, this guy actually needs to be sent to Gitmo.
Uh, yeah. Laura Loomer.
Earl Matthews is swamp. So Trump needs to ask him to resign.
People need to take a break. The hyperventilating will give people hives.
Laura Loomer is absolutely awesome. She’s the best investigative journalist out there.
No matter how good things go, half of this place has a nervous breakdown every 15 minutes.
Interesting nominees.
Earl Matthews nominated for General Counsel of the Department of Defense.
Susan Monarez nominated to be the Director of the CDC.
Steven Jensen has been PROMOTED by FBI Director Kash Patel to lead the powerful Washington D.C. Field Office.

“Hegseth has a “white supremacist” tattoo”
There’s another elephant in the room.
How can someone be thrown out of the National Guard for a Jerusalem Cross?
It really isn’t hard to look it up online if you don’t know what it is.
Surely his National Guard commanders can’t be this sloppy.
She’s tenacious, I’ll give her that.
Looks like Earl’s nomination may be yanked, because THANK GOD Trump seems to be finally listening to Loomer.
“Said it before and now again - Trump would be better served by picking people out of his rally crowds to serve in his admin than scooping vermin out of The Swamp.”
I absolutely agree with you...
“Who nominated Earl Matthews?”
Exactly. But Grok says Trump nominated him. So, digging down one level, who advised the President to nominate him?
Grok says nobody knows who advised the President, but Grok says “Trump leans on personal loyalty and familiarity—Matthews checks both boxes. Without insider leaks (none surfaced by now), it’s a safe bet the advice came from his inner defense and legal crew—Hegseth, Waltz, or even Matthews himself pitching his case—rather than a single loud voice.”
“She’s tenacious, I’ll give her that.”
She is probably Trump’s strongest and most loyal proactive supporter out there.
Thanks for link, a very good observation.
A Traitor is always a traitor.
But I did not know he was a business partner of Vance.
I don’t see any of that in Vance.
