Reason For Navy Sec Firing Maybe Even More Pathetic And Hegseth-y Than We Knew
All these people out here making Whiskeydick Pete feel like a very tiny and impotent WAR SECRETARY indeed!
TL;DR
- The firing of Navy Secretary John Phelan is linked to Secretary Pete Hegseth's "masculine insecurity" and potential jealousy.
- Phelan reportedly refused to punish Senator Mark Kelly for a video reminding military officers of their constitutional duty to disobey illegal orders.
- Hegseth wanted Kelly, a retired Navy captain, to be brought back onto active duty and stripped of his rank.
- Hegseth allegedly manipulated Donald Trump by claiming Phelan was obstructive to his aggressive shipbuilding agenda.
- Phelan, who had no military experience, was trying to avoid being complicit in potential war crimes ordered by Hegseth and Trump.
