🛒 Strong Coffee Company - Protein Coffee 💰 Get 20% OFF | Promo Code: POINT https://strongcoffeecompany.com/discount/POINT Pete Hegseth, the firebrand Secretary of War, has dominated headlines this week amid the escalating U.S. conflict with Iran in Operation Epic Fury. On March 17, according to the official War Department site, Hegseth announced President Trumps nomination of Army Brigadier General Thad J. Collard to major general, spotlighting his push to bolster military leadership as strikes intensify. Just days earlier, Politico and Fox News reported Hegseths fiery Pentagon pressers where he declared victory near, slamming CNNs coverage as fake news and unserious while wishing for a swift takeover by Paramount CEO David Ellison, a Trump ally. He boasted Iranian missile fire down 90 percent, drone attacks off by 95 percent, and claimed their supreme leader is likely disfigured after a weak written statement with no video. Tragedy struck with six more U.S. airmen killed in an Iraq crash, pushing wounded troops over 140, yet Hegseth insisted the Pentagon has the Strait of Hormuz mining threats handled despite halted shipping and soaring oil prices. Photographers remain barred from briefings after unflattering March 2 shots irked his staff, per the Washington Post and Jerusalem Post, fueling press clashes that echo his long feud with media. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro blasted Hegseth as wildly incompetent, like an eight-year-old with toy soldiers, on a podcast, while Tucker Carlson decried the war as evil. Hegseth fired back on X, per Fox News, launching a task force to purge woke ideology from war colleges, vowing to produce warfighters, not wokesters. Whispers of UFO buzz linger from his alien emoji repost of Trumps disclosure pledge, tying into new White House domains like aliens.gov registered March 18, as DefenseScoop notes the Pentagon gears up AARO reports. No fresh social blasts in the last day, but these moves cement Hegseths biographical arc as Trumps unyielding war hawk.
