Ah, Pete Hegseth.
I thought he was an inspired new generation pick to harken back and inspire the old generation of traditional warrior caste families to give our modern military another look…and another chance.
As I’ve written in the past couple of posts, Hegseth is walking into a snek pit filled with entrenched ideologues who are going to do everything in their power to hang onto their, well, power.
Part of the influence they wield has resulted in the seismic shift of our military’s seeming purpose for existence from national defense and victory in wartime to an overarching social justice experiment run at the cost of our national security and, from a military standpoint, good order and discipline in the ranks.
When there are favored classes within those ranks, then you no longer have the homogenized, single-purpose, unified force that acts as one…
