My favourite bit of all of this.
The Defense Secretary pointed to his own regimen as an example. “It all starts with physical fitness and appearance,” he said. “If the Secretary of War can do regular, hard PT [physical training], so can every member of our joint force.”
“Today at my direction, every member of the joint force, at every rank, is required … [to] meet height and weight requirements twice a year every year,” Hegseth added.
Someone remind me what fat orange bag of festering mayonnaise if at the top of these joint forces. I forget his name. I don’t really see him doing jumping jacks.
Why would a height requirement need to be checked twice a year?
Doesn’t make sense. Shorter soldiers have smaller hitboxes.

Well apparently Trump is shrinking because he’s supposed to be 6’3”
That’s his circumference.
No, this is a great idea. We should all get on Social Media and challenge the Snowflake-in-chief’s ability to do the jumping jacks he is asking his troops to do. Taunt him with old videos of Jack LaLanne, since he seems stuck in the 80’s culturally. With any luck, the problem will solve itself.
He literally said he can’t even walk without being careful so he doesn’t fall down, and he’s acused exercise of shortening the lifespan because you have a finite number of heartbeats or something. In other words, the troops are expendable because shortening their lifespans through exercise is perfectly acceptable. Some animals are more equal and all that.
There are fat service members in BCP that probably PT harder than any of these fucks in charge.
He should challenge them to a fight on the Whitehouse lawn.
In the speech he said
"As history teaches us, the only people who actually deserve peace are those who are willing to wage war to defend it. That’s why pacifism is so naive and dangerous. It ignores human nature and ignores human history. Either you protect your people and your sovereignty or you become subservient to something or someone. "
That sounds like an invitation for true patriots to “fix” the current administration.
They literally renamed the Department of Defense to the Department of War. How more explicit do we need them to be?
Those who will never see war in person sure like to push for more war.
This is a recurring theme in human history.
So we’re back to bombing for peace.
Like fucking for virginity.
Fuck these clowns. Vote. Every. Single. Election.
School boards and mayors and locals, too.
“I love peace. I don’t care how many men, women, and children I need to kill to get it.”
You’re assuming 2026 is happening.
Why are you so eager to give up?
Because I didn’t like the lifestyle of arrogance and privilege here before trump either. Its always been heartless and soulless for anyone that doesn’t get lost in the escapism in the bullshit they peddle to naive people in exchange for easier control.
Most Americans don’t even want to admit how much blood is on their hands by simply living a “regular life” under this nation. That’s not a culture to be trusted as authentic genuine human beings.
And Congress authorized a war…when, exactly?
Congress hasn’t had that power since before Bush, and even both of the democrat presidents since then have also authorizied military action without the approval of congress. Neither side realistically wants to change it, and they’ve all been capitalizing on it.
