William McRaven is a genuine American hero, a decorated, retired four-star admiral. He was the commander of U.S. Special Operations, and he planned and led the incredibly difficult operation that killed nine eleven mastermind Osama bin Laden.
All should read his piece in The Atlantic, that America deserves answers from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on his dismissal of some of the country’s best generals and admirals. McRaven notes that when President Lincoln dismissed General McClellan for lack of aggression, he explained it. As did President Truman in firing Douglas MacArthur, and as did Defense Secretary Gates in ousting two top Air Force officers. From Hegseth nothing on his dismissal or downgrading of dozens of prominent officers disproportionately blacks and women.
Most recently he forced out General Chris Donahue as commander of U.S. Army Europe. Top military people say Donohue may be the most respected officer in the Army. A warrior, strategically brilliant, courageous, and loyal to his troops. Hegeseth has given no reason for any of this. The strong suspicion is that the morally challenged, unqualified defense secretary, like his boss, only wants to be surrounded by politically correct sycophants. Admiral McRaven wrote, Hag says getting rid of senior leaders that he could he, McRaven considers among the very best generals and admirals, may leave America, quote, without the experienced voices they need to make the best decisions, and that the Congress and the public should demand answers.
The Admiral wrote, as, quote, our national security depends on it.
Discrimination to women and blacks and minorities in the military. Pete Hegseth should be impeached and fired immediately!
Why isn’t Congress doing anything about the Abuse that Pete Hegseth is doing firing generals or officers which are decorated Generals and Admiral as well as officers for doing their job to get their promotions. Pete Hegseth is unqualified and should be removed immediately including having an open meeting on our secrets and causing harm to our men and women in the military!
