NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has taken steps to block or delay promotions for more than a dozen Black and female senior officers across all four branches of the military, some of whom are seen as having been targeted because of their race, gender or perceived affiliation with Biden administration policies or officials, according to nine U.S. officials familiar with the process. https://t.co/KUvNlQcNV4

DAVID ROHDE: “Iran offered to give away ALL of its ENRICHED URANIUM during the recent peace talks. Hours later the U.S. started dropping bombs.”

Everything we’re being told by the Trump admin is a lie. He’s single-handedly destroying the United States.

[Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara]

BOMBSHELL: CNN's Christiane Amanpour confirms Washington had a real chance for peace, but threw it away to adopt Israel's psychotic "mowing the lawn" strategy. The Trump Administration intentionally chose endless bombing over diplomacy.

@mjfree @Forbes It's never enough when wealthy and powerful people want something like oil. They'll just have poor people led by brainwashed fools fight and die for them. Meanwhile their kids are kept safe and groomed to take their place.

[Frank D. M. (ShadyphazE) @starter7228]

@shannonplante @EthanLevins2 Add to that that this is an excuse to remove people who are not MAGA themselves and thus loyal to and believe in Trump.

[Frank D. M. (ShadyphazE) @starter7228]

@shanaka86 We know why they were replaced. So MAGA loyalists could be put in their place. People who will be more than willing to do whatever supreme leader trump wants. To hell with that pesky constitution.

[Daniel Foubert @d_foubert]

Army Chief of Staff fired: THIS IS VERY BIG.

Firing the Army Chief now, and replacing him with a loyalist, is preparation for orders the previous leadership might have slow-walked or resisted.

When you fire a service chief mid-war with no stated cause, the real reason is almost certainly doctrinal disagreement — how the war is being fought. It should be noted that the US started bombing Iranian civilian infrastructure today (Iran's largest bridge).

A career infantry officer like George, who ran the Army's transformation initiative, would have serious institutional opinions about the feasibility and cost of a ground operation in Iran. If he was pushing back — even through internal channels — that's exactly the kind of friction Hegseth would remove.

The likely replacement is Gen. Christopher LaNeve, formerly Hegseth's own military aide — meaning Hegseth is installing a loyalist at the top of the Army during active combat operations against Iran.

Hegseth has now fired over a dozen senior military officers, including Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. C.Q. Brown, Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti, Air Force Vice Chief of Staff Gen. James Slife, and the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse.

Bottom line: This is escalatory.

The civilian leadership is systematically removing any institutional brake on military options — this is what the entire purge has been building toward. The George ouster happening simultaneously with Trump's "stone ages" speech is not coincidence. Expect the next two weeks to be the most kinetically intense phase of the war so far.

[Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara]

Absolute bombshell on Fox News. An expert National Security Analyst confirms the Trump administration is completely purging the Pentagon. Pete Hegseth has fired over a dozen top generals, including the heads of the Navy and Air Force, right in the middle of a massive war.

[Adam Mockler @adammocklerr]

This is the funniest clip you'll see all day.

Scott Jennings tries to use a military analyst to fact check me... and the analyst ends up backing me up on everything.

WHOOPS!

[NowThis Impact @nowthisimpact]

The White House accidentally uploaded this speech — and quickly took it down. Maybe that’s because Trump compares himself to Jesus, fantasizes about being king, and admits there’s no money for childcare and health care because of war.

BREAKING - OUTRAGE in AMERICA: White House takes down video after Trump says, 'Don't send any money for daycare. We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country, we have 50 states, we're fighting wars. We have to take care of one thing, military protection. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things." WATCH

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨Trump today:

“We can’t take care of daycare. We’re a big country. We’re fighting wars. It’s not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.”

The United States has spent:

$21 billion on the Iran war in 30 days.
$100 million on Trump’s golf tab this term.
$200 billion requested for Pentagon weapons.

$8 trillion on wars since September 11th.
But daycare is not possible.
Medicare is not possible.

Medicaid — which covers 72 million Americans including children, seniors, and people with disabilities — is not possible.
