“… Who do you think are the people that would have interpreted international law, military regulations, and treaty obligations when the military is ordered to carry out air strikes and raids in Mexico against the newly designated “international terrorist” drug cartels?
Who do you think will be advising the service chiefs on use of their forces for seizing the Panama Canal, Greenland, or the utterly comical, but entirely real chance of an invasion of Canada?
What about looking at the law and military regulations on the use of force against civilians? Remember, the former SecDef refused to order troops to shoot protestors in the legs under Trump’s first regime. I have no doubt that Hegseth with the right lawyers won’t share that restraint next time.
The three service JAGs that Pete Hegseth fired last night would have been the guard rails.
So, while everyone is justifiably angry at the firings of Brown, Franchetti, and Sliwe they are missing that Hegseth quietly removed one of the remaining barriers to enacting the most sinister aspects of the Project 2025 and Musk agendas: A non-compliant military. …”
