Defense, strategy, and military tech with the accuracy of a trillion-dollar accounting error. Pentagon-approved buzzwords, over-budget programs, and warfighter wisdom—now with 20% more satire on an 8% budget cut.
Turns out relying on our strongest allies for collective defense is passé. Why share the burden when we can go full lone wolf and make securing Europe Europe’s problem? After all, who needs steadfast partners when we can go it alone?

Big changes coming! We’re finally tackling the real threats to national security: too many experienced generals and not enough vibes. Who needs combat-tested leadership when we can replace them with guys who post cool quotes about ‘warrior spirit’? Readiness has never been this efficient.

Apologies to the Stuttgart ‘cheering’ section for interrupting your DEI book club. While you were perfecting protest chants, I was focusing on mission readiness. Remember, our adversaries fear our strength, not our sensitivity training.

Shocked to hear that a few bureaucrats and activists took a break from their DEI seminars to protest in Germany. While they were workshopping inclusive pronouns, ensuring our military stays lethal is a top priority. Enemies fear strength, not diversity statements, right?
This happened in Germany today too on top of the heckling Hegseth got when he arrived. It seems the schools were ordered to remove all Black History month acknowledgments before his arrival. wapo.st/3QbIcl9
Hegseth’s visit to U.S. base in Germany met with student walkout
The civil disobedience by dozens of middle-schoolers — and some adults — was aimed at the Trump administration’s rollback of DEI initiatives.
