  "textContent": "WASHINGTON — After doing away with many of the disastrous woke military policies of President “Sleepy” Joe Biden, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is bringing long-overdue accountability back to the Department of Defense.\n\nCase in point: Hegseth just fired the Inspector General who found he'd shared highly classified information in a Signal chat and put American lives at risk. That's right, deep state bureaucrats. It's a new era of real warrior justice, because the Hegseth hammer is coming down.\n\nThe firing was part of “Operation Lethal Spartan Accountability,” a Hegseth-led initiative to remove every remaining Pentagon official who still believes in radical, left-wing ideologies such as law, ethics, or the Geneva Conventions.\n\n“The woke era of oversight is over,” Hegseth said during a press conference at the Pentagon attended by ace national security journalists Matt Gaetz, Laura Loomer, and X user LibsRshit2000. “In my Pentagon, the only transparency we need is on the bottom of a whiskey bottle.”\n\nAnd Pete isn’t satisfied with the termination of good-for-nothing so-called “inspectors.\" Especially those who think looking into fraud, waste, or abuse of top Pentagon officials is more important than investigating lethality. He’s also making sure that long-serving Navy admirals are fired or face the wrath of Congress for following the orders of their superiors to commit war crimes.\n\n“That whole ‘just following orders’ excuse didn’t fly at Nuremberg, and it sure as hell won’t fly under me — especially when  _I’m_ the one giving the orders,” Hegseth said.\n\nWhen asked about potential violations of international law, Hegseth dismissed such concerns as ‘woke European nonsense invented by the French and losers at The Hague.’\n\nWow, Pete really means business!\n\nAt press time, the move for greater accountability was being applauded by a coalition of TikTok veteran influencers, including @TriggerDaddy69 and @RangerUpMyAss, who livestreamed their reactions during a CrossFit workout.\n\nLeave a comment\n\nPentagon recalls Hegseth to active duty for violating most of the UCMJ“He promised accountability,” says lawyer holding 3,000-page indictment.Duffel BlogKay Too Ess OhhhhhRussia sends observers to Gaza to provide war crime adviceThis is not ’Nam, there are rulesDuffel BlogDuffel Blog StaffEddie Gallagher’s Top 5 defense tips for Russians accused of war crimes“I know how to own a courtroom.”Duffel BlogBull WinkleDuffel Blog’s guide to Trump’s selection of Pete Hegseth as SECDEFHe was one of many candidates in the running.
