Just an Infantryman trying to close with and destroy. Motivated to make the U.S. Infantry lethal again. Active Duty Major. 11M to 11B to 11A. Views are my own.
Aggressive reminder: The sole purpose of our military is to close with and destroy the enemies of the of the United States. Deterring potential adversaries by our demonstrated ability to accomplish this violently.
I want to talk about accountability, and why it takes longer than most are comfortable with. Because it has to be done right. Some people say, “Well, tyrants deal with enemies fast. Straight to the guillotine.” And yes, if all you want is revenge, that’ll do. But if you want…
How many “anonymous sources” can you cite before you just admit that you’ve made it up?? Time after time, the media’s “sources” have been nothing more than their own opinions disguised as a different person
Some people have been asking me about a time when someone saved my life. There were a few instances where that happened, but this one sticks out in my mind because of our discussions about the Commander's Assessment Program (CAP) and command posts. I'm going off of memory so…
For those seeking accountability: Understand the difference between rage and wrath. One is a fire without aim. The other burns only what must be destroyed. The former is human. The latter is divine.
You ever heard a Hot Mike moment on the net that made your whole body tense up? Mike just pissed off the commander, CSM and the S-3 shop with one push of a button. Accidentally. Mid-rant. With the mic keyed the whole time. What’s the worst Hot Mic incident you’ve ever…
THE REAL HEADLINE: Anonymous America-last individuals inside the Pentagon try to subvert our great nation’s leaders from delivering on their promises! Happy to report that @SecDef will not back down on our America First agenda.
Convince the sources “with knowledge of the matter” in the @DoD_IG to come forward and put a name next to their claim. Otherwise, toss this bad boy in the trash with the rest of them. Yawn.
Confirming @washingtonpost - Officials confirm the Pentagon’s internal watchdog has obtained evidence that encrypted messages sent from @SecDef Pete Hegseth’s Signal account included details from a classified email. DoD stands by previous statements. cbsnews.com/news/hegseth-s…
“I will be fair and impartial when recommending both rewards and punishment.” This line cuts to the heart of trust in leadership. Soldiers do not need you to be soft. They need you to be consistent. They need to know the standard applies to everyone. The high performer.…
Every headline is a smoke grenade. The goal? Convince you that funding your enemies is noble. That borders are cruel and truth is violence. And that resistance to it all is treason. Defy the stupidity with every fiber of your being.
We're all really going to miss your hard hitting and diverse journalism Cathy.
Pushing back on the near constant lies of the Fake News media is a full time job & my team is the best.
The mission of all these new press hires at @DeptofDefense is coming into focus.
I’m not done with this one. Not by a long shot. Let me say it plainly: they hate the common man. People like you and me. The media despises us. Not for what we do, but for what we represent. They protect the polished, perfumed bureaucrats who keep the machine humming. The…
Deep State hacks are attempting to subvert the agenda of the most popular Commander-in-Chief in modern history with cowardly, ANONYMOUS letters Our America First mission WILL NOT BE STOPPED
Oh, this article is partly right about embarrassment, but not in the way they think. You know what? I am embarrassed. Embarrassed that people are allergic to inspirational leadership. Embarrassed that the media can’t look at the record breaking recruiting numbers and just say,…

I do, General. And I’m here to tell you: we’d be far better served debating the performance of today’s generals than the names of long dead ones. If you’re so inclined sir.
You know nothing of our history nor the greatest of generals.
“If leadership depends purely on seniority you are defeated before you start. You give a good leader very little and he will succeed; you give mediocrity a great deal and they will fail.” - George C. Marshall
I came into the Army in 2000. I need an assist here from some of the sages of military wisdom who have knowledge of the 80s/90s. I have a question and anyone can answer it, but I’m specifically asking @KurtSchlichter and @CynicalPublius by name. What was the culture surrounding…
Sir, if I may. What’s in a name, really? Nothing. Everything. Is it about Braxton Bragg the man? No. He was a poor general. That’s not up for debate. But is it about the five letters (BRAGG) and what they came to represent? Absolutely. Why does it matter? Because names…
“General Bragg was one of the worst generals in American history.” It was a lack of judgement for SecDef to remove names like Eisenhower, Moore and Benavidez (latter two were Vietnam war heroes) and return them back to names of Confederate generals. theguardian.com/us-news/2025/j…
A reminder for America: On average, the amount of rank you achieve in the military is inversely proportional to the amount of truth you tell. How does that make you feel? Bad I hope. So learn to not recoil at hard truths. Truth culture starts with you, and ends with us.
That tiny face in the top right is me 😂 Welcome aboard sir. We are ready to move mountains with your leadership.
Proud to serve our men and women in uniform, their families and our DoD civilians.
