John Ullyot, who resigned last week as chief Pentagon spokesperson, predicted that Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth will also be out of a job soon.

Ullyot called it a “strange and baffling purge” that has led to “a near collapse inside the Pentagon’s top ranks.”

And he warned that even more “bombshell” stories about Hegseth and the Defence Department are about to drop.

    If what they’re doing is trying to destroy the American military apparatus, then that is just objectively good for the world.

    But they aren’t. Last year’s military budget was 850,000,000,000. This year’s budget is $1,000,000,000,000. Do you destroy something by giving it more money?

      No, but when you remove your best officers and replace them with “yes” people, then the military is fucked. Hitler is a classic for wrecking the Wehrmacht leadership.
