Pete Hegseth’s paranoia is undermining the Pentagon

Higseth HouseThe Pentagon is the biggest official from the resignation of the Tsunami Ministry of Justice last month, when seven federal representatives resigned for the deputy public prosecutor. Quid Pro Quo A plan to reject corruption charges against New York mayor Eric Adams in exchange for his cooperation with the Trump administration campaign against illegal immigrants. So if you are facing a follow -up problem Maze At home, you are not alone.

Three Pentagon officials were recently placed on an administrative leave – then they were launched – under a leakage ( “Investigation 2”) in Reporting the military plans of the Panama Channel, a second carrier on its way to the Red Sea, or the plan’s plan for Elon Musk to the Pentagon to military briefing on China or stop in a group of intelligence for Ukraine. We don’t really know. However, it is striking that the tremendous operational security failure is called “Signalgate” – when the National Security Adviser Mike Waltz invited the editor. Atlantic Ocean In an encrypted but unintended chat where Walz, HegSTH and other real-time schools discussed American air strikes in Yemen-it does not seem among the possibilities. (Signalgate is part of the early, early, sporadic The Pentagon Inspector has general investigation in whether Higseth was involved in the information that is classified with senior national security leaders through the executive branch on the application of an encrypted, but not classified.Investigation 1 leak)).

This is the uncertainty arising from the reason for the three political appointed appoinals at a high -level level on vacation, then the shooting of gossip led to the fact that they were targeting unrelenting or treated as a sacrifice for others in the office of Defense Minister Beit Higseth. Like the resignation of the Ministry of Justice in early March, the trio of the Defense Ministry, which is quietly gone, did not go. Senior former advisers Dan Caldwell, former Vice President of Darin Celnik, and Collin Carroll, former Vice Chief of Staff A joint statement On X (an unconventional way to such things, but Trump was definitely seeing and seeing):

“[u]The Pentagon Pentagon officials defamed our personality with unfounded attacks on our way out of the door. . . We understand the importance of information security and worked every day to protect it. At this time, we are still exactly not informed of what was exactly investigated, if there is still an active investigation, or if there is even a real investigation of “leaks” at the beginning.

If it exists, that will be “leakage 2.”

“There is a lot of tension, there is a lot of bad blood,” the source of the Pentagon is one Politico told the Pentagon’s current mood. Another said: “There is a complete collapse in the building.” At least one of the senior former assistants to Higseth has publicly became complaints about his leadership. “A month of the total chaos has passed in the Pentagon. One of the leaks of sensitive operational plans for group shooting, the job defect has now become a great distraction for the president – who deserves better than his supreme leadership,” books Former defense spokesman John Ullentite. Higseth, for his part, “in the overall madness, return mode for the wall”, ” According to CNN.

Now we know that Higseth has shared the same very sensitive attack plans on the Yemeni strikes so far Another sign set Text chat – on his own personal phone – which included his wife, brother and personal lawyer. Many were not even governmental employees and none of them had a “need to know” – one of the most basic security principles imposed on professionals of photographed military information or other sensitive military information. This chat occurred before confirming as defense minister – which is likely to be sinking more than his loud past and women. This may be or not to be part of a new leakage (“leakage 3”). Or it may be wrapped in one or both.

Senator Adam Chef, D-CA, that the Department of Archives and National Records investigate the Use of the Trump administration for reference, Gmail, and other NGOs to discuss sensitive national security issues in violation of federal laws that require preservation of records. Let’s call “the leakage investigation 4”.

As a person was Criminal investigation of leakageAnd now he is defending the current and former informants of national security in Investigations leakAll this is very irregular. The average investigation of leakage by the inspectors ’offices take 90 days to a few years. The agents usually meet witnesses as well as the subject or goal. Sometimes these interviews are voluntary and sometimes disturbed. Federal employees are generally expected to participate in the internal investigations that are administrative, but if the investigation can have criminal effects, the goal (goals) maintains the right of the fifth amendment against self -criminalization and they do not have to cooperate. In this case, before the interview, the investigator will have to provide the employee with a written warning.

CALDWELL, SELNICK and Carro may not try to enter before the various investigations of the leak, but if there is even a set of opportunity they could be in light of a federal criminal investigation-and they are likely to be referred to the prosecution-they must be a lawyer and they do not say another word, especially an attempt to eliminate the case on the issue of toxicity, This scenario exactly.

It seems that the investigation of the dropout 1 has arisen from error, separation and laziness. The leakage investigation 2 appears to be revenge. If there is a leakage of 3 (which must be there), then it is because Higsith-who was dangerous from its depth-needed to distinguish insecurity by waving the rooster in front of his wife, his brother, two of those who opened fire in the aftermath of the leakage 2, and more than ten of the personal and vocational medium in total. It is not clear whether the investigation of the leakage 1 has discovered what it seems to be a leakage of 3.

The reporters were stained with the violations and the sources that they represented, destroyed professionally, were terminated, criminal, prosecuting and imprisoned due to less dangerous disclosure, and those that were in the public interest of the prelude. Just ask about air violations Reality Winner and Daniel Hill; NSA Whistleblowers Thomas Drake and Edward Snowden; And Cia Whistleblowers Jeffrey Sterlingand John KiriakoAnd Christopher Haroun. HegSeth and Trump are already already aligned in their attacks on those who reject “disturbing employees”. Through classic projection Trump and self -awareness, Higseth now blames “leaks” in the chat group signals.

While criticized a long time ago The justice system of two levels For leaks by the political, political employees in the political point of view, the HegSet issue exceeds pale. Anything less than HegSeth makes a complete and absolute mockery of national security, the classification system and the life of those who serve in the government and the army. Trump stands behind the pale, eager, eager, but I will be very tense if you are “leaked home”.
