There, now you are likely as informed, if not more so than Petey Tweety signal chat ninja.

The official story is it's so Hegseth can give a pep talk to every general everywhere all at once and in person like has never ever been done before.

But what if it's actually to convene a military tribunal to try Gen. Milley for subverting Presidential authority in 2016 at the request of Speaker Pelosi?

Dang. Hegseth is returning the physical standards across all armed services to the 1990 requirements. Any changes from that standard since then will have to be justified.

And reversing risk-adverse culture, overhauling the IG process.

"Stop thinking like civilians and get back to basics."

Secretary of LAME.


Also, the name didn't legally change. Only all the signs.

As of around 6 pm ET on Friday, the new Department of War page still lists all the department's other social channels and its website as using the “Defense” name, as did its YouTube channel.

How far the rebranding might go is unclear, but any comprehensive effort would saddle taxpayers with costs in the hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars, as every sign, logo, uniform, computer system, and piece of official paperwork tied to the Pentagon’s identity across the globe would need to be replaced.

A prior effort to recommend changes at military installations commemorating the Confederacy carried a projected cost of $39 million and covered only nine bases. The Defense Department’s real property portfolio spans hundreds of thousands of facilities, from major bases to small outposts worldwide.

Have fun with that! Oh! and the trade deals, aren't deals, they're exemptions to tariffs. Remember to hydrate and educate yourself!

They call it an intervention.

Criticism from political figures: In September 2025, Republican Rep. Don Bacon called new Pentagon press restrictions under Hegseth "so dumb I have a hard time believing it is true". In April 2025, Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth called his actions "singular stupidity" after he allegedly shared military plans in an unsecured chat.

Are we saying that war is inevitable, overseas or on our own land?

I have many questions and concerns.

it was a very weird speech.
