Just for our edification, the U.S. military was already strong. What has been needed, going back decades, is for the government to stop over-using/ over-extending our personnel and equipment. And in that sense, our military is now weaker than before because of some short-sighted political decisions... President Trump, who campaigned on a central promise to keep the United States out of overseas wars, denied in an interview aired on Sunday that he’d ever made the pledge. “I didn’t guarantee no war,” Mr. Trump said in a lengthy interview with Kristen Welker, the host of NBC’s “Meet the Press,” taped during his trip to Wisconsin on Friday. “Why would I have built the strongest military in the world?”

If carried out, it would mark the first time the military executed convicted American inmates in more than a half-century.

Because Hedgehog wants to get in your personal business... The reforms mark the first time the list has been officially revised since a memo was issued March 27, 2017, decreasing the total number of faiths from 211 to its new number of 31. The changes were iterated in a May 20, 2026, memorandum issued by the Under Secretary of War and signed by Anthony Tata, under secretary of defense for personnel and readiness of the United States, and obtained by Military.com.

We’ve seen high-profile firings, resignations and retirements in the top military ranks. There has been unprecedented turnover among top brass, starting with the firing of Coast Guard Commandant Adm. Linda Lee Fagan in Jan. 2025, and continuing with the departures of nearly two dozen top military officials since then, including Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. C.Q. Brown, Navy Secretary John Phelan, and the judge advocates general for the Army, Navy, and Air Force. More recently, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth forced out three Army generals in a single day, including the service’s top officer, amid the war with Iran.
