🚨TOP Admiral WARNS US TROOPS on Trump’s ORDERS!!!

The most decorated Navy admiral is. warning our troops about Donald Trump. and Pete Hegseth. Four-star retired Navy. admiral and Navy SEAL William McRaven. just penned an incredible op-ed where he. calls out Hegseth. He calls out Trump. for their firing of top four-star. generals, admirals, and military leaders. who Admiral McRaven knew to be some of.

the most honorable and top military. tacticians. and military leaders that were serving. today. Admiral McRaven is warning our. troops, is warning our country that. Donald Trump and Hegseth's reckless. behavior are putting us all in peril. McRaven would know. He's the Navy SEAL. four-star admiral who led the mission to. capture and kill Bin Laden. Want to read.

for you what he said, and then I want to. remind you of the people who Donald. Trump and Hegseth have been firing over. the past few months and over the past. year and a half. Again, some of our most. distinguished members of the military. because Trump and Hegseth do not like. qualified people, and a lot of these. terminations, let's just call it out. what it is, are based on very, very. racist criteria because Hegseth and.

Trump are racists. Here's [snorts] what. Jennifer Griffin says from the Navy SEAL. officer who planned and executed the Bin. Laden raid. Here's what he has to say. In recent months, President Trump, upon. the advice from Secretary of Defense. Pete Hegseth, has relieved or forced. into retirement some of the finest. officers that have ever served our. nation. I have personally worked with. some of these great people. I have.

personally worked with most of them in. combat. And this week, in an egregious. decision, the president forced General. Chris Donahue to step down from his. position in command of US Army Europe. Donahue is without question one of the. most brilliant officers I know. He is. strategically focused, tactically. aggressive, personally courageous, exceptionally thoughtful in his planning. and execution, and compassionate with.

his troops. He has the respect of every. man and woman who ever served with him. And you could put me on top of that. list. Here's the article from retired. four-star Admiral William McRaven. Americans deserve answers from Hegseth. The president and his secretary of. defense have a right to remove officers, but also an obligation to explain their. actions. And McRaven goes into the. history about other presidents and.

defense secretaries who have removed top. military leaders, but in all cases, except now, going back to World War II, Cold War, war in Iraq, you name it, when. there were major terminations of top. military leaders, and it was never a. mass. firing like we have right now or a mass. purge like we have right now, the. president and the defense secretary.

would answer these questions to the. American people. They would be. transparent about it. Here's what. McRaven says. Every president and secretary of defense. has the right, and moreover the. responsibility to remove officers who. are failing to meet the high standards. expected of senior leaders, but when. crucial decisions regarding the. professionalism, effectiveness, or. morale of the military are made, the. people and their duly elected. representatives have a right to know why. these decisions were made. In recent.

months, Trump, upon the advice of Hagel, has relieved or forced into retirement. some of the finest officers that I have. ever served with or that have ever. served in this nation. I have personally. worked with most of them in combat. I. can tell you from experience that. Generals C.Q. Brown, right? He's the. former of the Joint Chiefs. Randy. George, the former Army Chief of Staff. who was just fired. Beloved Jim Mingus, J.P. McGee, Dave Hodne, Jim Sleight, and.

Joe Burger, and Admirals Lisa Franchetti. and Jamie Sands were warfighters through. and through. And this week, in an. egregious decision, the President forced. General Donahue to step down from his. position in command of U.S. Army Europe. He goes in and talks about Donahue's. background, which I just explained. Then. McRaven explains, "What is particularly. concerning about these firings is the. effect that dismissals will have on the. officer ranks.

Throughout my time as a senior officer, I never hesitated to provide my best. military advice to the Secretary or. President, even when that advice ran. contrary to their stated position. Never. once did I fear that by providing my. advice, I would be fired or asked to. retire early. Not only was it my. obligation to be forthcoming, but it was. also the expectation of those leaders. that I would be brutally candid. Hopefully, that level of honest. engagement kept the Secretary and the.

President from making poor military. decisions. However, these recent firings. raise real risks that senior officers. will be overly cautious about providing. their best advice, and therefore, that. the chance for military miscalculation. will grow dramatically. Pause there. That's exactly what we've seen in this. catastrophic and unlawful war in Iran. That's exactly what we are seeing as the. Trump regime engages in all of these war.

crimes, blowing up these fishing boats. off the coast of Venezuela or in the. Pacific. That is exactly what we're. seeing as America's military and our. security umbrellas that we used to. provide abroad have utterly collapsed. McRaven goes on to say, "If Secretary. Heggseth is trying to revive the {quote}. warrior ethos and restore trust in our. military as he has said, then the. unplanned departure of these senior. leaders will do just the opposite and.

may leave the president and the. secretary without experienced voices. they need to make the best military. decisions. Members of Congress should. demand answers. The American people. should demand answers. The future of our. national security depends on it." But I. would just say this with McRaven. That. future is dead. And I hate to be the. bearer of bad news and perhaps McRaven. is more optimistic, but it's done. It is over. The catastrophic irreparable.

harm has been done because Donald Trump. and Heggseth, as Heggseth prances around. Cuba cos playing this warrior ethos. crap, they have destroyed the. credibility of the United States. military for generations and. generations. It's irreparable. I don't. know, maybe one day it could I don't. maybe one day you could say it could be. repaired, but not in the near future.

Just you. know, cuz we've been covering it all. here. The latest being General And. they're all framed as all these people. were retired or they're taking early. retirement. I mean, people believe. General Chris Donahue, who's also the. last soldier to leave Afghanistan in. 2021, you know, that night vision photo. He was the last to leave. By the way, he. wasn't even responsible for the security.

at the Hamid Karzai Airport. He showed. up, stabilized the situation, was the. last to leave. I mean, this guy, his. entire career was A+ everything and he's. the exact qualified guy that Trump and. Hixson want out. Because Trump and. Hixson think they know everything when. they're the dumbest freaking people out. there. And again, you have Donahue being forced. out. He should have been the chairman of. the Joint Chiefs, not Dan Caine. You. know, it should have been CQ Brown. But.

Donahue was forced out. I mean, Donahue's the most beloved guy. I mean, y'all know I know we have a lot of. people from the military. Y'all Donny. I'll tell you, it was a close who was. the most beloved. Donahue or Randy. George, right? General Randy Randy. George, the former US Army Chief of. Staff, who was forced out as well. Um and as he left, he told his troops, "I know you'll stay laser-focused on the. mission and cut through the bureaucracy. to get our warfighters what they what. they need." He wrote in his departure.

letter. Randy George and his wife were. like the staples of the United States. military. So, who was more popular, Donahue or Randy George? It was very. close, but it was also David Hodne, retired general, former Army Ranger, who. leads the Army Transformation and. Training Command. You had Major General. William Green Jr., the Chief of the. Army's Chaplain Corps. Hixson and his. team were getting rid of all these. people. The Secretary of Army, they got. rid of Dan Driscoll during I mean, they.

fired everybody. CQ Brown was one of the. first to go. Chairman of the Joint. Chiefs, let's just be real. They fired. him because he was black and they. brought in an unqualified white guy in. Dan Caine, who had to get a waiver. because he didn't have the requisite. military experience. That's just the. reality. They fired all of the top JAG. lawyers. They forced out Alvin Holsey. Remember Alvin Holsey, who was the head. of Southcom, and then they replaced him. with a less qualified guy, General. Francis Donovan, to carry out all of the.

executions of the fishing boats and. blowing up all the fishing boats. I want. to go back to McRaven for a moment here. and share with you what McRaven had said. after Randy George was fired. And here's. how McRaven was talking about the purges. that were taking place at that period of. time. Here uh retired Admiral McRaven. talks about the Iran war and the. Pentagon purges. Play this clip. >> I am concerned of course in the last. year the president has either fired or.

asked to retire somewhere around the. neighborhood of 30 general officers. This has a cascading effect on the. morale of the senior officers, not so. much the junior officers and the junior. enlisted, but it does have an impact on. the senior officers and and I am. concerned that it puts him in a position. where they may be afraid to speak truth. to power. You have an obligation as a. military officer to always give your. best military advice. Not your best. political advice, not what you think the. president or the secretary wants to. hear, but your best military advice. We.

want to make sure that's. that this, you know, purge if you will. doesn't impact that. >> Here he is. speaking with the Carnegie Endowment. about from a military perspective the. war with Iran demonstrates how the. nature of power has changed. Play this. clip. >> I think what this. what this war has taught us. in a very interesting way and and we put. the humanitarian. tragedy aside from a purely military. standpoint. It's a very interesting look.

at the nature of power today. I mean. here we have the most powerful military. in the world, certainly the most. powerful navy in the world and yet. asymmetric warfare, the Iranians ability. to target soft targets along the Gulf, their ability to you know, to kind of. attack us constantly at night keeping us. a little bit off guard, their ability to close the Straits of. Hormuz. It shows that hey, all this. military power. when you have something like the Straits. of Hormuz, when you have a country that.

is prepared to use asymmetric warfare, then a lot of that military power is. just not going to be as effective as you. want it to be. So, where are we now? Well, we're in a very, you know, difficult place right now. I have been. saying for months now that the only. opportunity that the president had to. kind of leave, you know, this this conflict. with. a narrative that might work for him is. to, you know, tell the Iranians, "Look, we'll lift the blockade if you'll open. the straits, and then we will sit down.". >> And here was McRaven. He recently was on.

the U U It Show, and he talked about the importance of. character as well. I'll share this with. you right here. >> I mean, Eisenhower's first inaugural. address really just, you know, resonated with me. >> His the quote you pull on that I leaned. on is he proclaimed America's, quote, "faith in the desolate dignity of man. and the values that form this great. republic, freedom, equality, the rule of. law, and the power of the people." And. you ended the book by saying, "We need.

to be able to probably say I'm an. American." You know, the polling's not. so good on that right now, Admiral. Does. that alarm you? >> Yeah, of of course it does. But, the. whole reason I wrote the book you was. to, you know, to let other Americans. know that look, we are really good. people. >> And just to remind you on McRaven, this. was that famous 2014. speech that he gave. at the at at the University of Texas. 10. lessons from 36 years as a Navy SEAL. I.

mean, this is the kind of guy. and the and the person and the character. that the Trump regime hates right here. Let me show this to you so you can see. for yourself. Let's play this clip. >> But, if you'll humor this old sailor for. just a moment, I have a few suggestions that may help. you on your way to a better world. And. while these lessons were learned during. my time in the military, I can assure you that it matters not. whether you ever served a day in. uniform. It matters not your gender, your ethnic or religious background, your orientation, or your social status.

Our struggles in this world are similar, and the lessons to overcome those. struggles, and to move forward, changing. ourselves and changing the world around. us, will apply equally to all. I've been a Navy SEAL for 36 years, but. it all began when I left UT. for basic SEAL training in Coronado, California. Basic SEAL training is 6 months of long, torturous runs in the soft sand, midnight swims in the cold water off San. Diego, obstacle courses, unending.

calisthenics, days without sleep, and. always being cold, wet, and miserable. It is 6 months of being constantly. harassed by professionally trained. warriors who seek to find. the weak of mind and body and and. eliminate them from ever becoming. a Navy SEAL. But, the training also seeks to find. those students who can lead in an. environment of constant stress, chaos, failure, and hardships. To me, basic SEAL training was a.

lifetime of challenges. crammed into 6 months. So, here are the 10 lessons I learned. from basic SEAL training. that hopefully will be of value to you. as you move forward in life. >> And and I'll and I'll just share this. with you again. Here's here's a video of General McRaven. in an interview he recently gave so you. can see his kind of worldview and why. it's so obvious that he was despised by. Hegg seth and Trump. Very again, Trump. Hegg seth is very low character people.

Here, play this clip. >> that they know, hey, this is the. environment we want to create and this. is why you have to change. Um and then the process to actually do. it, which is hugely important, right? You you can go out and have the best. culture in the world and go out and make. temporary changes, but if you don't get. it into the process, it doesn't matter. You know, uh right now we're developing. the Eastern flank to turn assign which. we'll talk about. But if you don't put that into a process. where people actually buy the things. that you have to do for this, you can.

have the greatest plan, the greatest. vision, we're doing all kinds of awesome. unique stuff we've never done before. But you actually have to put things into. the ground. People. people actually have to train. And they have to believe and have faith. that that's going to work in combat. >> I'm going to talk about the process. because you know, again going back to. brag. At the two-star level, everybody's there. at the division. You know, everybody's. there in your footprint. Then you go up. to 18th Airborne Corps. Most people are. there, but now you've got some core.

separates that aren't necessarily on. brag. But now you're here in Europe, you've got folks everywhere. So how do. you communicate that why, that vision. when you have a dispersed team like the. one you're leading right now? >> Yeah, I think well, the the first thing. even at 18th Airborne Corps, the vast. majority was out. I think the number one thing is is uh. you have to trust your subordinates. >> Right there you have it. Let me know what you think. Hit. subscribe. Let's get to 7 million.
