Donald Trump in an interview with NBC News Sunday, confirmed that he plans to attend an unusual meeting organized by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that will gather hundreds of senior military officers near Washington on Tuesday.
Hegseth last week summoned hundreds of senior military leaders, who are stationed all over the world, to Washington for a meeting of the Pentagon’s top brass.
Senior admirals and generals were not informed beforehand about the purpose of the meeting.
This is more sounding like asking for a loyalty oath to trump.
You know, it dawned on me now, this seems like a risk to National Security.
It could be a turning point in history
So they do plan to have the generals swear an oath on him personally…
It almost seems like a setup to pledge fealty just one day before the government shuts down. But of course, it’s common practice to pull 800 generals and admirals from their global stations and place them in a single room in front of Trump.
Ah there it is. Kiss the ring.
Here comes the Hitler Oath
Oddly enough, I just learned today apparently Hitler didn’t demand the German military to swear an oath, two Generals came up with the idea to have the military swear to Hitler in hopes of drawing him away from the Nazi Party. Which clearly didn’t work as they planned.
After this article, with this other knowledge, I would be willing to bet that shits going to get REAL fucky.
If they ask these officers to commit high treason then that’s it. The military is there to protect constitution. With no military to protect it, no court to uphold it, no congress to abide it then the United States is truly over. (Though I still maintain that was April 15, 2025).
There’s a tiny, tiny, tiny possibility that we are too pessimistic and that maybe they do mean “they’d die for the country.” They could simply recite the oath theyve already sworn, and be completely legally protected.
I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God
Trump, and Hegseth, aren’t men of honor. They seen honor as a joke, a weakness. Nonsense. To me that appears to be expected from them, as honor requires empathy, which they lack.
The question then becomes do our senior officers have empathy?
But according to their oat, they could take care of Trump, who is clearly a domestic enemy to the constitution.
Why april 15?
It will be hard for all of those high-ranking military members to ignore how utterly incompetent Hegseth and Trump are. Not that they shouldn’t know already, but having it on display right in front of you and having the opportunity to discuss it with other people you respect in person will be a whole other thing.
Of course there will be crazies that support this administration, but I am hopeful this will be a good way for the sane to gain some solidarity on the need to be ready to terf these morons when there are illegal orders.
Lets hope the real patriots have the guts to do the right thing.
Narrator - they didn’t
Yeah that’s a lot of HVT in one area.
But that aside, I wouldn’t be super shocked if this turns into loyalty pledge-a-palooza. Which would be… interesting.
The OPSEC incompetence is staggering, but he’s an idiot who failed in basic operational security multiple times so should we be surprised?
maybe, but you can be sure that all elevators will work fine (maybe they’ll even disable any safety measures just to be “safe”)
I will pray for a military coup on Tuesday
So the planned 1 hour speech will now become a 5 hour rambling orangefest.
Well they will be making generals to swear an oath to him, so of course he wants to be present.
Great, so they’ll have TWO unqualified hacks with little (Hegseth) to no (Trump) military experience telling them how they’re doing their jobs wrong.
There’s also the (honestly pretty unlikely) possibility of the highest ranking fragging in US history
I’m not sure you can frag civilians
Right, extremely unlikely, but pretty fucking stupid to be getting everyone all in one place so publicly and openly.
When is the hostile invasion of Portland?
enough with the Portlish jokes
And he’ll be introducing an hour-long presentation by Stretchface Barbie on the exciting opportunity of time-shares in the greater Miami area.
What a ripe target!
…yes Master Putin. Thy will be done!
