So why might Secretary Hegseth do such an extraordinary thing? Only four solutions to the puzzle come to mind.

He has some trivial thing to say and does not understand the risks.

He wishes to endanger the lives of the generals and admirals.

He will stage a purge, perhaps involving a loyalty oath or something similar that requires personal presence.

He will tell the commanders that henceforth their assignment will be to oppress American citizens (“homeland defense”). This could be combined with the third scenario: those who refuse will be fired.
Perhaps others can think of other possibilities, but I am afraid that I cannot.


One more possibility occurs to me, Timothy……

In their recent meeting in Alaska, Putin ordered Trump to pull ALL the admirals and generals back to the US in order to separate them from their commands while he launches a full on attack against Europe while simultaneously, Xi takes Taiwan.
