"We are grateful for his service, but it was time for a leadership change in the Army."

In other words, the war is going sour and we need a scapegoat.

"Hegseth wants someone in the role who will implement President Trump and Hegseth's vision for the Army"

No women, and no black and brown people.

I have a bad feeling that this means some hideous war crimes may be about to happen.

No wonder morale at the Pentagon-- like Dummkopf Trumpf's approval ratings-- are rock bottom.

I'm grateful to be retired and out of that dystopian hellscape.

Here's the ousted general: x.com

Trumpf junta dumfux fired Middle East SMEs in DOD, USIC, and the National Security Council (NSC).

The junta completely overlooked Israel's non-stop offensive against Muslims-- Iran didn't.

Trumpf junta language spoken in June 2025 during the first illegal strikes: "Kindly stop your nuclear program."

Small protests began in Iran late Dec 2025.

In early 2026, CIA covertly distributed Felon Musk's Starlink systems in Iran to encourage more protests and foment a revolution.

Trumpf junta language spoken in the 28 Feb illegal US-Israeli attack against the people of Iran: "Armageddon and regime change."

So after all that, WTF did Pete Hellsbreath expect after they killed off the "Pope" of their country and the Kremlin had to warn Trumpf to stop targeting Iranian leaders?

Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell releasing a statement on X that read, "General Randy A. George will be retiring from his position as the 41st Chief of Staff of the Army effective immediately. The Department of War is grateful for General George's decades of service to our nation. We wish him well in his retirement." However, a new report claims George was removed because he and Army Secretary Daniel P. Driscoll refused to remove two Black and two female officers from a list of military members to be promoted to one-star generals.

That sounds about white.

What illegal order did George refuse to carry out?

"Hegseth wants someone in the role who will implement President Trump and Hegseth's vision for the Army."

Why can't Hegseth implement President Trump and Hegseth's vision for the Army?

Because Hegseth is a failure at leadership.
