Trump and Hegseth's people are really endearing themselves to the military. I do hope this ends badly for them.

... NDAs? What in the fox news pundit hellhole do they think they're doing? These generals swore an oath to the constitution - I think they take that more seriously than some worthless rag that says "dont tattle on hegseth"
It makes more sense when you remember all these people come from a corporate environment who think in terms of NDAs for protecting secrets.
It makes more sense, sure. Is less cringe worthy and pathetic, absolutely not.
Oh I know. I just can't fathom the fact that hegseth is just so, so incompetent that he thinks an NDA is an actual tool in this circumstance
I bet they want a financial penalty for anyone who leaks something they don't like.
Yeah except a contract like an NDA has to have consideration for both parties.
The theme of this regime has been vandalism.
Now they'll inflict maximal damage on esprit de corps.
It'll take decades to fix everything that Trump has smashed.
And there's no way to go back to "the way it was before." There will be revolution. The only questions are when and what it's going to look like on the other side.
Typical. Bunch of failures at the top. Better check all the people who get the actual work done.
I'm sure it's a good idea to fire a bunch of battle hardened generals due to loyalty tests. That can't possibly come back to bite the ~~fascists~~ government in the ass. /s
If any of these soldiers feel backed into a corner
They can always find the Dorner. 🎶
They're going to ask about the fascist speeches they cringed through aren't they? Instead of a new loyalty pledge, they'll just eliminate anyone who wasn't enthusiastic about the insanity or who agrees that diversity is good and going to war with American civilians is bad.
"Do you support president Trump and the values of Trump's administration?"
And the ugly axe starts swinging.
There were enough pins and stripes in that room to understand 'divide and conquer' strategy.
So what's it going to be? Stand up for the Constitution or bend over?
Narrator: They bent over.
