Re "Hegseth fires general behind Iran intel report," Aug. 25
-
MARK SCHIEFELBEIN Associated Press LT. GEN. JEFFREY KRUSE at a 2024 hearing.
Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse fired by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth - just another story about the Trump administration's campaign to make things right and correct with our military, right? Wrong. It is a big deal because it's a purge that seemingly has no end. From February of this year up to the present, from Adm. Lisa Franchetti to Kruse, the Trump regime has been aggressively firing top military officials. This includes, notably, Air Force Gen. CQ Brown Jr., who had 40 years of service. The administration has tossed countless decades' worth of service and expertise into the trash bin, all based on manufactured excuses.
So one has to wonderare we really more secure today with President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, House Speaker Mike Johnson and Hegseth at the helm? I, for one, think not.
