‘Full-blown meltdown’ at Pentagon

A former top Pentagon spokesperson has slammed Pete Hegseth's leadership of the department of defense, as pressure mounts on the US's top military official following reports of a second Signal chatroom used to discuss sensitive military operations. John Ullyot, who resigned last week after initially serving as Pentagon spokesperson, said in a opinion essay published by Politico on Sunday that the Pentagon has been overwhelmed by staff drama and turnover in the initial months of the second Trump administration. Ullyot called the situation a "full-blown meltdown" that could cost Hegseth, a 44-year-old former Fox News host and national guard officer, his job as defense secretary.

In my nearly three decades of military service, including several tours at the Pentagon, I never witnessed such reckless, chaotic, and amateurish conduct. CPT Pete Hogsbreath (MNARNG) isn't qualified enough to be an aide to a flag officer, let alone fire one.

Pete Hogsbreath would be using the pointer to show everyone where the nearest saloon to the Pentagon is.

I love it how people still think the norms of poor permanent=removal still exist.

Nothing will happen to the drunken fool or his lackeys. Anyone speaking up to prevent further damage to national security will be the targets as the cardinal sin now isn't exposing the US to danger, it's exposing the incompetency and negligence of the administration.
