Pete Hegseth outlined a shift in departmental priorities centered on restoring what he described as a traditional “warrior ethos,” arguing that removing ideological and political distractions will strengthen the readiness and effectiveness of U.S. war fighters.
Hegseth made the remarks while addressing supporters, emphasizing discipline, accountability, and combat effectiveness as the core mission.
Hegseth said the department is refocusing its approach around what he called common sense and a return to fundamentals.
“Applying common sense is in our priorities of the department. First is we’re reviving the warrior ethos. We want to get rid of the distractions and the debris. No more DEI, no more dudes and dresses,” Hegseth said, drawing loud applause from the audience.
