Trump purging the military...12 - 20 Generals removed.

[Care4all]

Anyone that whines about this, what was your response when Obama and Biden fired Generals?

How many? What was the cause?

How many? What was the cause?

look it up if you can the left hides that information or makes the search for it difficult to do. Obama fired many Generals and all were experienced war fighters from the Iraq Afghan wars,

A YT channel calimed Trump has recently removed 12 top Generals in the military. I asked AI. It seems the number may be even higher.

Based on reports from early April 2026, it is true that the Trump administration has removed multiple senior military officials, including the Army Chief of Staff and other generals, as part of an ongoing restructuring of the Department of Defense. [1, 2, 3]

• Recent Firings (April 2026): Reports indicate that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, under the Trump administration, fired Army Chief of Staff General Randy George on April 2, 2026, forcing him into early retirement. Along with him, other senior officials were removed, including Gen. David Hodne and Maj. Gen. William Green Jr..
• Scale of the "Purge": Some reports and social media commentary suggest that over 20 top generals and admirals have been removed or fired by Sec. Hegseth since the start of the administration's actions in early 2025.
• Previous Removals: In February 2025, President Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General CQ Brown, and the Navy’s top admiral, Lisa Franchetti.
• Context: The removals are described as an attempt to reorganize Pentagon leadership to align with the President’s policies and to address concerns over "woke" ideology within the military.
• Additional Removals: The administration has also been active in replacing other officials, including the Attorney General in April 2026. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

While the figure "12 generals" has been discussed, some sources suggest the scope of the removals (including admirals and top leaders) has exceeded this number. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

It looks like it will be an easy thing for any pres to replace the top military leaders with his own yes men if he wanted to use it as his personal military force.

Obama did it too

Pete Hegseth's Defense Department Blew $22M On Steak ...​

Mar 10, 2026 — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's Defense Department allegedly blew through $22 million on lobsters and ribeye steak as part of a wild September end-of-year spree.


Per the analysis by Open the Books, in September, the Pentagon spent $2 million on Alaskan king crab, $6.9 million on lobster tail, $15.1 million on ribeye steak, and $1 million on salmon. Dessert included 272 orders of doughnuts for $139,224 and ice cream machines for $124,000.


Extravagant spending sprees are also not unusual for Hegseth’s DoD. The report noted that the department also spent more than $7.4 million on lobster throughout four months in 2025: March, May, June, and October.

Not a fan of Da Jooos, huh?

Tired and worn out "argument" (or lack of one). Americans aren't fans of foreign governments dictating American foreign (and domestic) policy. Da Zionistsssss occupy the American government and either bribe or blackmail America's political figures into submission and compliance. Freedom-loving Americans are simply tired of it and we want our country back.

As I said, these generals are just political stooges to implement retarded social engineering policies until war breaks out.\

Oh...so we're officially calling it a war now?

Until that time their value as compotent generals is unknown.

So...your assessment is this...correct me where I'm wrong:

The blob oozed into office on January 20th. He had 12-20 (at minimum) "political stooges" with the rank of General. And decided to go into 3 nations (Venezuela, Iran, East Africa) with the "stooges" in place.

LOL it happens EVER year and has forever, the policy in the Government is you must spend every penny you are allotted or next year you get less then this year. Every admin spends every penny and if you bothered to look it up your hero Biden and Obama did the same.

When I worked for DOD it was forbidden to use taxpayer dollars on food, parties or events.
We had to pay for our own coffee, chip in for Christmas parties, summer picnics, retirement parties.

Routine?
Wasn't Trump supposed to stop that?

So his DOGE bullshit was a colossal waste of taxpayer $$$.

Obama fired Two Generals, for CAUSE.

 

[JohnDB]

Most generals get fired at some point...aka asked to resign.

A general who doesn't follow orders of the president or vice president WILL get fired in a heartbeat. Happens constantly in our history of America because politics plays a role at the General's level.

Militaries follow orders....the second that stops....you no longer have a military force and instead have armed thugs.
