A group of five partisan former defense secretaries — including those who signed an unreliable letter called Hunter Biden Laptop Russia's disinformation — is calling on Congress to hold a hearing on the firing of President Donald Trump's top general.
Five former defense secretaries – William Perry, Leon Panetta, Chuck Hagel, James Mattis and Lloyd J. Austin III, all serving in Democrats or Democratic administrations, have signed a letter saying they are “deeply wary” by shootings.
“We are writing to urge the US Congress to explain these reckless actions and ask Trump to fully exercise his constitutional oversight,” they said. I said A letter sent to the Legacy News media as expected.
A senior official told Breitbart News: “This is a typical move on the left. Whenever they have bad news for them, or something they want to accelerate, they have their former officials lined up, and these letters are usually written by liberal think tanks.
“This is the most wetland of the swamps that sign this letter,” the official added.
Last week, Trump fired the chairman of Prime Minister Charles “CQ” Brown's co-elebrity, and – via Defense Secretary Pete Hegses, supported Navy Chief Lisa Franchetti, Vice-Chief of Staff General James Srife, and generals in the Army, Navy and Air Force.
All of these military officers will serve at the joy of the President and may be replaced at any time, according to the President's commander under Article 2 of the Constitution. However, the former defense secretary complained that Trump “didn't justify his actions.”
“As former defense secretaries, we are calling on both the House and Senate to hold an immediate hearing to assess the national security impact of Trump's firing,” they wrote, demanding that the Trump administration “justify each of its firing.”
They also asked the Senate to refuse to confirm new Department of Defense candidates, including Brown's appointed alternative, Air Force Lieutenant General (Ret.) Dan Kane.
The senior defense secretary pointed out that all signatories of the letter are Democrats or anti-Trump, including either those who were fired or fell into a Congressional investigation.
Perry, a Democrat who served in the Clinton administration. It's fallen Under Congressional scrutiny in the aftermath of the Cobalt Tower bombing in Saudi Arabia, it led to the deaths of 19 aviators and 498 injured. Senior Pentagon leaders were warned of the threat eight days before the attack.
Panetta, a Democrat who served as CIA director and secretary of defense in the Obama administration, was one of the signers of a letter signed by 51 former Intelligence Directors of the Intelligence Bureau, who falsely claimed that Hunter Biden laptops were disinformation in Russia. He has never retracted his support for the letter so far, despite the FBI confirming that the laptop is actually real and not Russian misinformation.
Senior defense officials are called to sign Panetta, “Just kidding because he's one of Hunter Biden's leaders.” Officials noted that Trump had pulled security clearance for the letter's signatories.
Hagel is a Republican, but he worked for the Obama administration and was himself. Dismissal Two years later, over former President Barack Obama's policy disagreement.
Matisse, who served in the first Trump administration, never officially confirmed his political affiliation, but hoped that the Secretary of Defense would bring Democratic Michele Fullnoy as his aide and surrounded by anti-Trump Democrats as his top advisor. He was fired too – or Forced Resignation – Trump over disagreement on policy.
Austin is a Democrat who served as former President Joe Biden's Secretary of Defense and fell into a Congressional investigation after being discovered to hide several hospitalizations from Biden and his own deputies, leave a break in the chain of command, and endanger the country's security. He was not responsible for it or Afghanistan's mistake to see the deaths of 13 American service members.
In particular, all the living former defense secretaries who did not sign the letter were Republicans, Mark Esper, Robert Gates and William Cohen.
Despite the failures and violations of the signatories themselves that led to the death of the military, they accused Trump of weakening “national security.”
They also argued that “talented Americans may be much less likely to choose military service life if they believe they will be bound by political standards.”
Recent figures by the Army and Navy show that military recruitment actually only rose in the Trump election in November.
