"The implications of Trump sending troops to Greenland are catastrophic. I cannot... It's impossible to understate how catastrophic this is. It would be existentially stupid for us to do this. It would be such a gift to Putin. … Trump could fly to the Kremlin, get down on his knees and lick Putin's boots, and it still wouldn't be an act of subservience as gratifying to Putin as the United States invading Greenland."

"Our domestic policy is run by the same collection of dangerous fools, knaves, and deeply insecure little men.

There is a direct line between January 6, 2021, and the American action in Venezuela. An American president who does not recognize the laws of his own country can hardly be expected to recognize any international law."

"The problem with American foreign policy is that it appears to be run by dangerous fools, knaves, and deeply insecure little men of no substance. This is because our country’s foreign policy is run by fools, knaves, and deeply insecure little men.

That falls into the true-but-inadequate category."

"It’s yet another example of Trump being undone by his even more chaotic minions – RFK Jr. and vaccines , Peter Navarro and his 'Liberation Day' tariffs, Bill Pulte’s scurrilous use of private mortgage information (which implicated his own family) and Brendan Carr’s own-goal from going after Jimmy Kimmel. I could go on, but I think the point is made."

"It confirmed publicly what is being whispered within the military, and presumably among our allies and enemies: that Hegseth is an abject incompetent who isn’t remotely up to the job. And this toe-curling performance is a reflection of his underlying panic."

"If America still had a fully functioning democracy, Donald Trump’s speech Tuesday to the assembled generals would have ended his presidency. ...

It’s clear that the decision to summon top officers from around the world to receive a lecture about 'warrior ethos' from a man who installed a makeup studio at the Pentagon was made by Pete Hegseth."

As Evan Hurst reports, from late-night comedians like Jimmy Kimmel to Stephen Colbert and Military Reddits, Trump-Hegseth are being resoundingly mocked now. Hurst offers links and video clips — including to MSNBC's Pentagon reporter Helene Cooper reporting on what she's hearing said inside the military.
