Hegseth’s strategy is a textbook paradox, demanding a record-breaking budget to fund a global retreat. It exposes a "strength" doctrine that is fiscally bloated yet strategically hollow.

MAGA Pete STARTS SWEATING as IT ALL COLLAPSESAdded:
All right, we have some more breaking news. America is becoming more and more vulnerable on the global stage, and Donald Trump and Pete Hgsth are trying to lie to the American people about the state of our national security. We just got the news a few days ago that Pete Hgsathth, our Secretary of Defense, is withdrawing a bunch of US forces from Europe and Africa. Not occupying forces, but forces that are working with friendly countries to ward off the authoritarian forces of countries like Russia. Russia is a looming threat over especially Eastern Europe as they have repeatedly tried to invade Georgia, Russia, and other surrounding countries.
So Pete Hexath withdrawing US forces is bad. This is a big move. And it especially is bad because this White House is trying to ask for a $1.5 trillion military budget. That is a 60% increase in our military budgets, while we're pulling out of NATO allied countries while we're uh kind of shrinking on the world stage. What could this possibly be for other than Donald Trump's most cynical dreams or potentially a war with China over Taiwan? The idea of increasing our military budget by 60% while pulling troops out just causes a lot of friction. So, we've got GOP Senator Tom Tillis exposing Pentagon Pete's amateur hour scheme in a long scathing post. But let me just show you this absurdly dumb propaganda video posted by Secretary of War Pete Hexath. As it says up here, they're just they're so weak and fragile in their attempt to be macho. Pete Haggath has a tell when he's shaking Xiinping's hand in that video I covered the other day where you know you can tell deep down he knows that we are cooked. He knows that we have used 1/3 to one half of our precision missiles and other stockpiles in this endless pointless war with Iran. He knows that we now have to ask for $1.5 trillion to restore those very missiles that we used and wasted on this pointless war. By the way, if you appreciate the videos on the Adam Mockler feed, if you appreciate the push back against this current war structure, then make sure you drop a like, make sure you subscribe, make sure you comment below. Here is Pete Hagset's video. Let's just play a second of it to illustrate how dumb it is.
>> Despite what you might hear in the media, America is not in decline. We remain the strongest military power on Earth. But that power requires renewal.
And with global threats that are constantly evolving, it's time to make a 1. This is such a dumb propaganda video.
It's such a poorly made propaganda video. He literally has a chart with a line that says global threats going up.
This is made for the lowest common denominator in society. You can tell he's just standing in front of a cheap green screen. You can almost like see the green outline behind him on his head.
>> Make a 1.5 trillion investment, a generational down payment. For far too long, Washington bureaucrats allowed America's defense industrial base to fall apart.
During President Trump's first term, our This is the dumbest video I've ever seen. It couldn't even break a million views. So, it's safe to say Pete Hexath's ask for $1.5 trillion is not breaking through to the average American in the way that he thinks. This brings me on to Senator Tom Tillis. Now, I'm somebody who believes in participation, trade, and having allies on the global stage to make things better for all of us. I'm not somebody who believes in endless, pointless wars of aggression against countries that uh that we are striking relentlessly. I am not against funding allies unconditionally who commit war crimes. But I am against having troops in allied countries like France or Germany or even sending military equipment to Ukraine is in my opinion a net positive. But I am not for just completely withdrawing on the global stage. I think that would be a massive massive mistake. Senator Tom Tillis posted the scathing message of MAGA Pete Hagsath. He said, "The careless decision to reduce our force posture in Europe, along with moves by Pete Hexath and his political henchmen to force out some of our finest general officers, is amateur hour at best and deadly at worst." Hegath continues to surprise and disrespect our greatest allies and some of our best military professionals with impulsive decisions not grounded in reality or good judgment. Remember, Hexath randomly fired multiple black generals and multiple female generals, not because they were bad at their job. They were actually quite great and experienced, but because he viewed them as DEI hires.
So whether or not national security is something that we think about in our day-to-day lives due to these, you know, massive spiking costs, the massive gas prices, most people aren't really thinking about national security. This is a very real thing that Pete Hexath is weakening. He is making all of us less safe when he's firing experienced professionals and taking the lead while probably reportedly half drunk. Hegs continues to surprise and disrespect our greatest allies and some of our best military professionals with impulsive decisions. If the rumors are true that HGsath is trying to sideline General Chris Donahghue, one of our nation's finest war fighters, by downgrading US Army Europe Africa to a three-star command, he is taking another step down a dangerous path, a step that is not in the best interests of our nation, to our service members. Um, and it's interesting. Senator Tom Tillis was somebody who was really railing against both Christy Gnome, if you'll remember, and Pam Bondi before they were fired.
So, when he begins to, you know, go really hard against somebody, it does make waves. He's a powerful senator.
Hegs, um, General Donahghue has dedicated his entire career to upholding the high standards and warrior ethos that Hegsth claims he is restoring to our ranks. What Hexath is actually doing is spending his time attacking people like Senator Mark Kelly and purging any minorities out of the Pentagon. General Donahghue has led soldiers at all levels in airborne and mechanized units, the 75th Ranger Regiment, and our most prestigious special operation units. He deployed over 20 times to support uh Operation Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom, New Dawn. Heath would do well to surround himself with more patriots.
Okay, so Senator Tom Tillis is straight up neocon. But the point that he's making that Pete Hexath is making us less safe is the same exact point he made with Christ, the same exact point he made with I think Cash Patel at some point. He has been going to war with all of these stooges that he doesn't trust.
This post follows Pete Hex's announcement earlier this month that the United States is withdrawing 5,000 troops from military posts in Germany.
The withdrawal from Germany also caused concern among Republican lawmakers who said they were very concerned by the decision, particularly that it was sending the wrong signal to Vladimir Putin. Tillis, who is not seeking re-election and has vowed to use the remaining days to speak without filter, wrote Saturday that Hexath continues to surprise and disrespect all of our allies. So, the point that I want to make here is that we are all less safe.
We are all more vulnerable and Cash Patel along with Pete Hexth could both be in trouble. Listen to Senator Tom Tillis back in January. You could have pushed Christine Nome out.
>> I mean, I I think if Nome looks at her body of work, I I could not be if I were in her position, I can't think of any point of pride over the last year. She has taken this administration into the ground on an issue that we should own.
>> And Trump is now trying to soften his own tone when it comes to Minnesota.
Obviously looking for an off-ramp to the crisis. So, it's the same thing over and over. Donald Trump creates a crisis and we all call it out and now he's looking for an off-ramp. As it pertains to the Iran war, there are about two separate scenarios in which this could play out.
Donald Trump either has to have a humiliating climb down where he doesn't get any of the ass he wanted for. Iran will likely still control and toll the straight of Hormuz. They'll still have the enriched uranium buried somewhere and then they'll rebuild the nuclear facilities. or he could enact a dramatically escalatory strike against a bunch of infrastructure like he's threatening every single day, which would constitute a war crime. Neither of these are great for the United States, but either the climown that doesn't involve a bunch of death would be much, much better. Either way, we are 80 days into this war. It was supposed to last four to six weeks. We're like on week 12. We're going to continue to cover it every single day on the Adam Mockler feed. Drop a like, subscribe. I love you all. Peace out.
