Conservatives are so stupid to fall for this again. Amazing! See Below.
“The Ongoing Shadow State Housecleaning of MAGA from Trump's Department of Defense”
The Ongoing Shadow State Housecleaning of MAGA from Trump’s Department of Defense
From Grok:
“Kasper has a history of working in federal government roles. He served under multiple administrations, including those of George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, indicating a long career in public service.
Kasper previously served as chief of staff to Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-California), a member of the House Armed Services Committee. In 2015, he was involved in coordinating Hunter’s fact-finding trip to Ukraine, navigating tensions with the State Department to ensure the congressman could assess the Ukrainian military’s needs and threats from Russia.
Kasper’s career also included stints with defense contractors and think tanks, though specific organizations are not named in the sources. This aligns with a common career path for defense policy professionals in Washington, D.C.
As Pentagon chief of staff, Kasper initiated a leak investigation in March 2025 that included scrutiny of unauthorized disclosures about a “pause in the collection of intelligence for Ukraine.”
Kasper’s rivalry with aides like Dan Caldwell, who was openly skeptical of U.S. military assistance to Ukraine and advocated for retrenchment from Europe, complicates the picture. Caldwell’s termination under Kasper’s investigation could suggest policy differences, with Kasper potentially favoring a more traditional national security approach. However, reports of personality clashes rather than ideological disputes indicate this may not have been about Ukraine policy specifically.”
At the very least, Caldwell deserves the right to defend himself. He does that very impressively during a Tucker Carlson interview(link below).
It’s obvious what’s going on here. The Shadow State is flooding the zone. First with Signalgate, then the ambush of these three MAGA allies of Hegseth and now the repeated MSM blows against Hegseth. Once Hegseth has been dispatched, Kasper will leave his three month stint, mission accomplished.

Watching the Justice Dept and now DoD, I ma beginning to believe the deep state cannot be defeated.
Trump cant even fulfill his agenda without some judge ruling “Oh you cant do that” this is what the commies were counting on, they knew, the second Trump took office every damn thing he does, just sue him, or take him to court and some commie judge will say NO
LEAKERS......LEAKERS......LEAKERS......LEAKERS......LEAKERS......LEAKERS.......................
You thought it would be easy?
Don’t be a wuss.
All you have to do is have the stones to say, You’re fired!
Exactly, and until the Supreme Court wakes up, Trump needs to tell the country there is no provision in the Constitution for disctrict and appeals court judges to rule the full country and he will no longer be stopped by their rulings. Bring this to a head now.
Well Done Pete.
Carry On.
Do nothing congress. If they were with the people Trump would have real support
Pronto.
Every good thing that ever happened to me in my life was difficult.
Most were very difficult.
Many were considered “impossible” by self-appointed experts.
Great news. He’s a prick who had no place in a MAGA DOD.
Good start.
The CIA is good at it aren’t they? They have had enough practice.
Throwing out the garbage.
More agitprop from hard Ivan.
I thought Bondie had authority over lower judges and strike down all their judicial activism BS against Trump’s executive orders?
You would think so. Seems THEY are the top law officials in the land and not the US AG Pam Bondi. Every day nothing happens she’s looking more and more like Sessions and Bill Barr.
That’s quite impressive, from Grok.
This Kasper the unfriendly ghost has been exorcised.
