- Defense chief: commanders should resign if they don’t back agenda
- Hegseth announces changes to how Pentagon handles discrimination complaints
- Trump’s remarks on US deployments spark fierce reaction from Democrats

Trump and Hegseth remind me of the movie, Seven Days In May (1964) Official Trailer – starring Burt Lancaster, and Kirk Douglas, Conspiracy . . .
Joining Hegseth was U.S. President Donald Trump, who also delivered an address to the assembled admirals and generals in Quantico, Virginia that floated the idea of using deployments to U.S. cities as “as training grounds for our military.” To read more go to the link below:
