Not sure what to make of this.
Watched it on Special Report/Bret Baier. He locked horns with Pete Hegseth and wants JD to run for POTUS. The fact that he resigned means he’s true to his beliefs or not subordinate. Either way is ok.
🚨 BREAKING: Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll has RESIGNED, per Fox
This comes after MONTHS of butting heads with War Secretary Pete Hegseth over the firings of many top Army Generals
Driscoll is a close ally of VP JD Vance, and was expected to stay around until at least after the midterms. pic.twitter.com/oAXmLpd1hG— Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) August 31, 2026
Jake Sullivan is best friend of Driscoll.
This guy is not appropriate for this job.
This is a win.
Make of that what you will.
“””Dan Driscoll was close friends with the Vindmans who helped orchestrate Trump’s 1st impeachment.”””
Makes me wonder how he got the job in the first place.
DJT is creating a New World Order in double time. Baby’s can stay home with mommmy.

Fine with me. I can’t stand those insipid Vindemans.
I trust Hegseth’s firing of bad Generals, and I think this guy is friendly with the treasonous, pasty-faced, doughy, Vindmann tribe.
Good riddance!

What does it tell you about Vance?
I think Trump has a higher turnover, because he chooses people who have independent incomes of the government. They have other lives that they have to attend to eventually.
At those levels, I think it can be hard to tell who is aligned with who.
Almost everyones loyalty has a price.
Some of the vermin you have to live with, at least for a while, even if you know they are scum: Comey, Fauci...
I don’t want to swim in that ocean.
Dan Driscoll was close friends with the Vindmans who helped orchestrate Trump’s 1st impeachment.
Well, bye … and, Adios, MoFo.
He’s best friends with the VINDMANS AND Jake Sullivan!!!! OUT!!! NOW!! WATCH OUT JD....he’s NOT YOUR FRIEND!
“Not sure what to make of this.”
He was a REALIST, as opposed to a Neocon. I guess he told the truth one too many times.
So, why does JD hang with this guy???
“””What does it tell you about Vance?”””
It makes me think his judgement isn’t so good.
clear to you maybe ...
