I'm the Pentagon's head policy guru (chief “undersecretary”) as well as the world’s most brilliant military strategist, cheese aficionado, and debonaire bon vivant. Like a finely aged Gruyère, I'm complex, subtle, and totally awesome. (satire)

Elon is really good at video games so he should be able to figure out the future of modern warfare despite his utter lack of real world experience in at least half that time. Kinda like all the trillions in savings he found with DOGE and the DOGE rebate check we all got.

What could possibly go wrong with someone obsessed with God and the end of times in charge of the military and authenticating a nuclear command from the president?

Critical omission is that the colonels’ and captains’ testosterone levels will count 60% of their qualification. Push-ups another 15%. Lack of body hair 15%. And the remainder [waves hands].

Look, Sun Tzu wrote a whole chapter on morning wood so Hegseth is right on the mark here. As usual.

Of course I didn’t have an opening statement! It’s not like I’m back at Groton, Harvard, or Yale with some pop quiz. I’m a towering intellect, I shouldn’t even have to deal with these mouth-breathing “senators.” thehill.com/policy/defen...

Colonel Vodka is so insulting. Pete is obviously a General when it comes to booze. A five star one at that. And vodka? He’s way manlier than that — only drinks Fireball. So it’s General Fireball and a signal of extreme respect from all his underlings.

That’s why he got *two* secret Medals of Honor. But they were classified so that he could still participate in the Osama bin Laden raid without drawing too much attention.

We’re tweaking it to mandate all troops get a monthly injection of what we call the RFK Special — a cocktail of peptides, ivermectin, beef tallow, and just a dash of measles. Max lethality here we come!

You don’t have the reich to question our genius military leaders. SecWar Pete designed this one himself.

Pete Hegseth is the equivalent of 10 million munitions so we’ll just drop him into Iran and he’ll win the war — sorry, “skirmish” — in 60 seconds flat.

Fake news about Delta Force (more like Beta Force if they think they’re manlier than Pete). In fact, they call him “No Tab Pete” because he never drinks Tab. He drinks much, much harder stuff. All the time. Because he’s a man’s man and his T pills have his testosterone at record levels.

If you think this is bad, you should see what SecWar Pete gets up to on the road when his wife/minder isn’t around. I’ll just say it involves lollipops and crude oil.

I’m all for more baldies in senior positions since it just highlights how awesome my hair is. And let’s be real, personal grooming is about the most important thing for career advancement at the Pentagon these days.

Yes but they do agree with his facial-hair policies. So it’s really more of a wash than anything else.

I don’t get the complaint. Washington was too weak to chop more so it seems like this means Trump is at least 30 times better than Washington since he’s chopped down 30 times more trees. That is virility personified.

Is this bad? This seems bad. Wait, wrong talking point. I meant: fake news! If these so-called “generals” had Pete’s same exercise (and beverage) routine maybe they’d understand his genius. Ever since Sparta, every true warrior knows that lethality is directly correlated with lack of body hair.

We prefer the velvet-glove approach to Russia. In fact, SecDef of War Pete Hegseth volunteered me to go to Moscow and give Vladimir a foot massage. I’m pretty stoked, working on my finger strength if anyone has some pointers.

We’re actually turning the place into a sweet tiki bar with a slip and slide. OANN and MyPillow Network will have passes but not the rest of the weenies in the “press” corps. (Also, like the “b” in “dumb” we just discovered there’s a “p” in “corps” which is crazy so we’re changing it to “corz.”)

Pete just doesn’t get enough credit for his sheer consistency. He’s been into racism and misogyny so much longer than most of the MAGA newcomers, Proud Boys, etc. He’s OG on keeping bloodlines pure and filled with American testosterone because he loves this country so damned much.

I assume the troops will be shirtless, too. It’s a tough job, but I will volunteer to put oil on them beforehand so they appropriately glisten in accordance with SecDef of War Pete Hegseth’s guidance.
