Michael is joined by @admiralstav.bsky.social to share a candid gut check on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's speech to 800 of America’s top generals and admirals at Quantico. Was it effective, or just political theater?

Thoughtful commentary from @markhertling.bsky.social , a smart and experienced leader, about the convocation of generals and admirals www.thebulwark.com/p/hegseth-qu...

Couldn’t Hegseth’s in-person meeting of all flag officers have been a secure conference call?

Lotta wild speculation about the sudden convocation 100's of admirals & generals. What's the agenda? Why so sudden? What's the force protection plan? Who'll be running military commands around the world? Will there be a PT test with competitive bench press? The world wonders.

It’s time to put Russia on notice that their next jet that crosses into NATO airspace is a legitimate target. And just for the record, Vladimir Putin has no idea how to fly a jet.

The US naval force sent to the southern Caribbean will reinforce the pressure on drug cartels and a belligerent Venezuelan regime that benefits from them.
