Pistol Pete is systematically FIRING the entire top echelon of the Army, either replacing them with Trump yes-men, or no one at all, after disbanding the military’s drone program.

 The broader problem, however, goes well beyond the secretary’s dubious decision to fire the former Army chief without cause. TheTimes reported:

A series of firings and feuds initiated by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has left the Army essentially rudderless as it struggles to deal with the threat posed by cheap, deadly drones and missiles that have pounded U.S. bases in the Middle East.

The Army has not had a chief of staff, the service’s top officer, since Mr. Hegseth fired Gen. Randy George without explanation in April, and there are no signs that he is close to filling the position, said current and former officials speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive personnel matters. Mr. Hegseth has forced out at least three senior officers who had been viewed as potential successors to General George.
