Doesn't sound like an ideal time to lose your secretary.
But I'm sure there's so many layers of dysfunction in the military right now.
I mean, this isn't the first purge of what I would deem some sort of a disagreement with lower officials.
I mean, this has been coming for some time.
Could you imagine Pete Hegseth being your boss?
Could you imagine taking orders from him?
It's kind of scary.
So you could see Secretary Phelan, you could see him just thinking to himself when Hexeth fires him, does this little chicken shit know how much money I've given Donald Trump?
Because that's the way these guys think.
Like this has nothing to do with merits or intellect or your knowledge about the Navy or...
or gamemanship in a war or anything like that.
It's about money.
It's always about money.
So this makes perfect sense that Phelan would march himself to the White House and say, Listen, Donald, I've given you tens of millions of dollars, and this little chicken shit tells me that you're firing me.
If you're going to do this shit, you're going to do it to my face.
