Trump and Hegseth Gather U.S. Senior Military Officers in Virginia

More than 800 generals and admirals, under the direction of President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, were summoned to a military base in Virginia for an unprecedented meeting.

“It’s completely unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon and leading commands around the country in the world. Real toxic leadership is promoting people based on immutable characteristics or quotas instead of based on merit. The era of politically correct, overly sensitive, don’t hurt anyone’s feelings leadership ends right now at every level.” “The Democrats run most of the cities that are in bad shape. What they’ve done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York,, Los Angeles, they’re very unsafe places, and we’re going to straighten them out one by one. And this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That’s a war, too. It’s a war from within. And I told Pete we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military, National Guard, but military, because we’re going into Chicago very soon. That’s a big city with an incompetent governor — stupid governor — stupid.”
