Oh look, another day, another batch of anonymous crybabies trying to play “deep state revolution” because they don’t like Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth doing his job like an actual leader instead of a bureaucratic pushover. According to The Daily Mail, a small group of Pentagon insiders—two military officers and one civilian, all conveniently anonymous—have been scheming since May to force Hegseth out of office through a coordinated pressure campaign. Because, you know, that’s what brave patriots do: plot behind closed doors and leak to the media while hiding their names like cowards.
Here’s the gist of the whole circus: a bunch of entrenched D.C. lifers, mad that a Trump-aligned outsider like Hegseth is shaking up their cozy status quo, met at someone’s house to draft a letter. A letter. Apparently, this was going to be their Lexington and Concord moment. The plan? Release this dramatic manifesto around July 25—the six-month mark of Hegseth’s tenure—blasting his “leadership” and “priorities.” In reality, what they’re mad about is he doesn’t cater to woke defense policies and is focused on things like lethality, warfighting capability, and not using the Pentagon as a social experiment laboratory.
The letter, still unsigned and hiding in a hard drive somewhere, may or may not be released depending on whether they can find enough people willing to risk their pensions and write their names down. So far, sounds more like a coffee klatch than a coup.
Meanwhile, Sean Parnell, Hegseth’s Assistant for Public Affairs, took the fight right to these deep state hacks on Steve Bannon’s War Room—calling the letter “completely ridiculous” and mocking the cowardice of the anonymous plotters. Parnell pointed out the stunning hypocrisy too. Where were all these bold whistleblowers when Lloyd Austin literally vanished during the botched Afghanistan withdrawal? Oh right—they were either silent or complicit.
Also, let’s not ignore the Pentagon’s recent “Midnight Hammer” operation that took out Iran’s nuclear infrastructure in one clean strike. But sure, let’s focus on palace gossip and whiny letters instead of actual military success.
What this boils down to is simple: the deep state’s cocktail circuit doesn’t like that someone like Hegseth—former Army officer, unapologetic patriot, and Trump ally—is steering the Pentagon toward strength and accountability. So they’re trying to sabotage him the only way they know how: leaks, whispers, and anonymous PR consultants.
It’s pathetic, and it’s predictable. The swamp never drains itself.
