So let me get this straight…
Under #PeteHegseth’s leadership, the Army is rolling out a policy that could kick out Black men for razor bumps—a medical condition that disproportionately affects us.
Meanwhile, white troops who refused the #COVID vaccine? They got waivers. Sympathy. Career protection.
This isn’t about grooming. It’s about who gets to be seen as worth accommodating.
This should be a bigger story. Connect the dots…
📌 Rep. Ro Khanna asked Defense Sec. #PeteHegseth if the #Pentagon would obey a federal court order. Hegseth refused to answer.
📌 Now, a #DOJ whistleblower says officials told staff to ignore judges and deport people anyway—“Tell the courts ‘f— you.’”
There’s a coordinated plan in the #Trump administration to defy the courts.

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has said he is unaware of any intelligence suggesting Iran had moved its highly enriched uranium to shield it from U.S. strikes, amid continuing questions about their outcome. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/06/27/world/iran-uranium-us-intelligence/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #petehegseth #donaldtrump #us #iran #uranium

The #Trump admin said that its attack on 3 #Iran #nuclear facilities was not about toppling the country’s government.
“This mission was not and has not been about regime change,” #Defense Secretary #PeteHegseth said at a Sunday news briefing.
Air Force Gen. #DanCaine, the chairman of the #JointChiefs of Staff, stressed that the goal of “Operation Midnight Hammer” had destroyed the nuclear sites in #Fordow, #Natanz & #Isfahan.
In concluding his briefing, #PeteHegseth attempted to once again reiterate an unwillingness for America’s intervention in #Iran to turn into a protracted #war & labeled the overnight strikes as “intentionally limited.”
“I would just say, as the president has directed & made clear, this is most certainly not open-ended,”Hegseth said, adding that it doesn’t limit #US ability to respond & it will do so if necessary.
He added that the #US used other methods of deception as well, deploying fighters to protect the B-2 bombers that dropped 14 #BunkerBuster bombs on Iran’s most powerful #nuclear site. He said that all of these tactics helped the U.S. drop the bombs without tipping off Iran’s fighter jets or its air missile systems.

#Hegseth said it was important to note that #US strikes did not target Iranian troops or the Iranian people, a veiled effort to indicate to #Iran that they don’t want retaliation on American targets in the region.
#Trump#Defense Secy #PeteHegseth echoed his remarks in a press conference.
“I can only confirm that there are both public & private messages being directly delivered to the Iranians in multiple channels, giving them every opportunity to come to the table,” #Hegseth said.
There were numerous scenes of protesters throwing rocks or other objects at law enforcement officers & setting cars ablaze, including a number of self-driving #Waymo taxis. At the same time, false images spread to revive old #ConspiracyTheories that the #protests were a planned provocation, not a spontaneous response to the #immigration raids.

The confrontation escalated on Monday as new #protests occurred & #Defense Secy #PeteHegseth announced—on X—that he was mobilizing 700 #Marines from a base near #LosAngeles to guard federal bldgs. They are expected to join 2k members of the #California#NationalGuard whom #Trump ordered deployed without the authorization of the #state’s #governor, #GavinNewsom, who normally [legally] has command of the #troops.

Notably, #PeteHegseth has railed against #military lawyers who promoted what he saw as unduly restrictive rules of engagement aimed at protecting #civilians in war zones. He has fired the top judge advocate general (#JAG) lawyers who give advice on legal constraints.
