I had a hunch that the US Army was reluctant to kiss civilian leadership’s ass or to play any part in Operation Epic Fury, and now Hegseth’s sacking generals
If I were an English speaking nation adjacent to the US or a blue state governor looking to strengthen my negotiating position with Washington, DC, I would be salivating at the opportunity to pick up some top shelf retired officers to start bulking up my army / militia
EXCEPT all parties who would actually do this lack the imagination or temperament to start building up separatist militias / Canadian Foreign Legion
- Blue state governors still think they can ride this out until midterms / 2028 and then it’s business as usual angling for a presidential nomination
- Any general who is inclined to do a coup or do anything other than speaking gigs and book deals in early retirement is A-OK with what Hegseth’s doing and would not have been sacked
