The hawks in Trump’s admin will jettison the best aspects of the MAGA movement to fulfill their depraved fantasies of the United States initiating yet another Middle Eastern Crusade.

There is no room for NEOCON sympathizers in the national security team of the U.S.

We could do a lot of things if we weren’t flat broke. But, we are.

The MIC is strong in Nikki Haley... She and her brothers have sent many an American to die in the name of enriching politicians and the CEOs in the MIC...

Of course Haley wants war. She’s odious.

If opposition to war against Iran is the issue, who benefits from that war and thus benefits from Hegseth and Gabbard being removed?

Yes. The MIC.

But who else is desperately pushing for that war?

The answer obviously is Israel who was rebuffed recently.

I suspect the MIC isn’t blameless in the campaign against Hegseth, but again I’ll ask why a foreign nation is allowed to openly attempt to interfere with our elections and lobby to have cabinet members removed?

Trump was impeached for receiving the benefit of a few thousand dollars in Russian Facebook ads, yet Israel (and to be fair the UK) get to openly meddle in our affairs and contribute untold amounts to our lobbyists and politicians and we aren’t allowed to ask about it?

They love sacrificing the young people of this country to their god of blood and war.

Moloch is never satisfied for any length of time. Fresh blood is desired and these people aim to provide.

I thought Pete's deep love of Israeli dick up his arse would save him, but I guess anything less than total war with their enemies is a deal breaker.

Remember when the Left used to be against war? KCT remembers.

If mark Levin dislikes someone, that's a pretty good litmus test that said person is a good guy.


Levin has yet to find a conflict in the middle east for which he won't sacrifice American kids.

Not wanting to drop bombs on little brown people on the other side of the planet just to enrich some military company, and collect the kickbacks, isn’t ‘isolationism’. It’s common sense, especially when we’re broke.

Y'all are so small minded. Read a history book. Just because the left wing media convinced you that Vietnam was a for profit war doesn't mean it was. Stopping communism was a noble cause, as is stopping radical terrorist regimes.

MAGA isn’t isolationist. It’s anti foreign war involvement.

We are told in one.post that Caldwell was.fired because he opposed a war in Iran and we are told.here that Hegseth opposes a war with Iran.


Something isn't adding up.

Cool.
We won’t be able to stop an invasion by Paraguay if we continue on this path to economic collapse. We currently spend, on the military, more than the COMBINED military spending of

Russia, China, Germany, UK, India, Saudi Arabia, France, Japan, South Korea, Italy, Israel, Ukraine, Poland

Continuing THAT is madness

Don’t get why anyone is a big fan of Hegseth and Gabbard has flip flopped on basically every issue in the last 10 years but if they are against war with Iran then good they need to be kept around.

Trump's "mandate" hinges on the no war promise. I do not want war. People like John Bolton and Bill Kristol want war. And if you are like John Bolton and Bill Kristol, you got kicked out of the MAGA club a long, long time ago.

It happens to be one of my favorite aspects of the movement.
