Military GAINZZZ: Trump, Hegseth Address the Military High Command Wearing "No Fatties" T-Shirts

Last week the leftwing freaked -- plot twist, I know -- over Hegseth's sudden call for all top military leaders to gather in Virginia.

They freaked because they suspected what was coming: Trump and Hegseth would tell the wokies the free ride is over. Reform or resign.

But Hegseth did more than that.

He called them a bunch of fat weakling cucks.

'We Are Done With That Sh*t': Trump, Hegseth Demand Excellence From Military Brass

"If the words I'm saying today are making your heart sink, then you should do the honorable thing and resign."

QUANTICO -- Secretary of War Pete Hegseth looked into the eyes of hundreds of his top military leaders on Tuesday as he shared his new directives for the War Department -- including the news that every military branch will ensure that requirements for combat positions return to "the highest male standard."

"This job is life or death," he emphasized. "Standards must be met ... it's common sense and core to who we are and what we do."

The Secretary of War addressed a room filled with United States military leaders from around the world, while legacy media outlets fretted over the "unprecedented" gathering.

...

"We must be so strong that no nation will dare challenge us, so powerful that no enemy will dare threaten us, and so capable that no adversary can even think about beating us," the president said Tuesday.

...

No longer will the War Department tolerate ideological standards or quotas or punish leaders for supposed "toxic" attitudes, Hegseth said. No more "identity months, DEI offices, dudes in dresses," nor will it tolerate leadership that is not aligned with the War Department's mission, he noted, pointing out to those present that he had fired some military leaders.

The ideology and lowered standards implemented during President Joe Biden's administration are over, both Trump and Hegseth said.

"We're done with that shit," Hegseth said.

...

Hegseth repeatedly mentioned his concerns about lowered standards in the United States military, particularly when it comes to fitness and grooming, sharing that at his direction on Tuesday, every member of the Joint Force at every rank will be required to take a biannual PT test and to meet height and weight requirements for "every year of service."

He even went so far as to call out leadership themselves on this issue: "It's unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon, and leading all around the world. It's a bad look, and it's not who we are!"

...

He specifically noted that the fitness changes are not being made in order to weed women out of the armed forces.

"If women can make it, excellent," he said. "If not, it is what it is...It will also mean that weak men won't qualify, because we're not playing games. This is combat. This is life or death."

The War Secretary told the military brass: "If the words I'm saying today are making your heart sink, then you should do the honorable thing and resign."

He doesn't just talk about physical fitness standards, but grooming standards. That's not just about clipping nails. He's talking about the grooming standards for men and the standards for women, and he means men are going to have to dress like men with men's haircuts and women will have to dress like women. (Women can probably cut their hair short if they like. I think the standard forbids long hair for men, but I don't think there's any minimum length standard for women.)

Thanks to Clyde Shelton.

In this clip, he has a very stinging quote. He says he doesn't want his son serving with people who are unable to meet physical standards, or who are not fully proficient with the weapon platforms they have been assigned. Or, he says, "serving under a leader who is the "first" but not the best."

In other words: People will no longer be promoted because they're "the first" obese bisexual non-binary Samoan furry.

Full remarks here. It's a 45 minute address.
