Tom, a self proclaimed intellectual, cannot comprehend the funniest part of this whole thing… that Pete was not brought in to earn approval from people like Tom Nichols.
He was brought in to dismantle what people like Tom spent years defending and proliferating throughout our military leadership.
I have said this many times.
Hegseth is a change agent.
His mandate was never to preserve the Pentagon’s bloated bureaucracy, credential worshipping academic class, or the spread of a culture that allowed DEI ideology and social experiments to spread through the institution that is supposed to be, above all else, winning wars.
You are supposed to hate him, Tom.
His goal is to eradicate people like you from our great military.
@jlippincott But fell well short of that whole “unconditional surrender” part which was kind of a big deal following EVERYTHING THAT THEY HAD DONE THUS FAR INTO 1945
