Pete Hegseth's Newest Defense Order Is Sure To Annoy A Lot Of Military Members
Story by David Moye • 10h

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is going to extreme lengths to make sure every member of the military listens to what he says.

That includes the lengthy speech he made late last month that was basically a diatribe against “fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon” and “dudes in dresses.”
 

Hegseth directed U.S. military leaders to make sure every member of the DOD watches the speech he made on Sept. 30 in Quantico, Virginia, and reviews the policy changes, according to a memo reviewed by CNN.

In the memo dated Oct. 6, Hegseth declared: “Leaders at every level will ensure all personnel will either watch the full recording or read the official transcript of the speech, and review the policy changes no later than 31 October 2025.”

It leaves the policies less open to major "interpretations" or being ignored when everyone knows the policies.  It's called communication.
