Hey folks,
This one is infuriating. We’re digging into the mounting controversies surrounding Pete Hegseth—from F-35 parts ending up in Hong Kong to growing criticism of his leadership at the Pentagon, the treatment of American service members, and serious questions about the administration’s use of military force.
And the deeper we go, the worse it gets.
[00:01:11] How sensitive F-35 components ended up in Hong Kong—and why I believe this deserves a full investigation.
[00:04:33] Congress starts looking into the F-35 incident as I break down the bigger problem I see inside Hegseth’s Pentagon.
[00:06:30] Retired Brigadier General Leila Gray unloads on Hegseth, calling him unqualified and saying he needs to be fired.
[00:09:25] We turn to another Hegseth controversy: military strikes, the role of the courts, and the dangerous precedent I think the administration is setting.
[00:11:34] Why all of these stories—from military decision-making to the treatment of sailors—come back to accountability and leadership.
This episode is about more than Pete Hegseth. It’s about what happens when accountability disappears from institutions with enormous power, and why the consequences can reach from the Pentagon to the people serving our country and all of us at home. If you value independent media willing to have these conversations, help me keep building it.
