Captain Bonespurs, using his bootlicking lackey (formerly of FOXNews and the Iowa National Guard), Pete Hegseth, is totally remaking the US military, replacing experienced officers with ‘loyal’ ass kissers.

 

Following his inauguration, Donald Trump has fired numerous high-ranking military officials, including the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the director of the National Security Agency, and the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency

. The dismissals, many without public explanation, have drawn strong condemnation from lawmakers and former defense officials. 

Key firings and removals since January 2025
  • Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: Gen. CQ Brown Jr., the nation's top uniformed military officer, was abruptly fired in February, less than two years into his four-year term.
  • National Security Agency Director: Air Force Gen. Tim Haugh was removed in early April. The move was heavily criticized by members of Congress.
  • Defense Intelligence Agency Director: Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse was fired by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on August 22, 2025, over what was officially termed a "loss of confidence".
  • Chief of Naval Operations and others: In February, the administration also removed Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the Navy's top officer, and Gen. James Slife, the Air Force's Vice Chief of Staff.
  • Senior military lawyers: The administration fired the top lawyers, or Judge Advocates General (JAGs), for the Army, Navy, and Air Force.
  • Head of Coast Guard: Admiral Linda Fagan, the first woman to lead one of the six military services, was removed in January.
  • Senior officials at NATO: Vice Adm. Shoshana Chatfield was dismissed in April.
  • Hundreds of lower ranking officers have also been fired, with no explanation given, other than ‘lack of confidence’.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

Not sure why,

BUT, am still wearing the necklace. Has been a tradition, for over 30 years, to wear the necklace, 'for awhile', until I lose the feeling, of the beach, in Mexico. Can't say why, but, still have it on. "Tis a sad day, when I take it off, and am not ready to go there, yet. Don't ask. 'Tis an old tradition...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...
