Some defense officials responsible for drafting lists of civilian Pentagon employees to be terminated as soon as this week are raising concerns with their superiors that the summary firings could break the law and potentially harm US military readiness, a senior defense official told CNN.
What readiness? You are in the hand of a Russian Puppet! Russia will dictate what you are going to do.
So Congress? Is this OK with you?
Shhhh 🤐
When you have a loose cannon with a power crazed despot 'in charge' what do you expect.

COLLABORATOR NEWS NETWORK Your access journalism, bothsiderism, sanewashing and ad-revenue-as-arbiter-of-truth bullshit helped end US democracy and send us into the fascist death spiral. You are part of the problem. You decided to stop speaking truth to power so you could be part of wielding it.
People voted for this!!
Isn’t that the point?
When the Sino-Russian Alliance attacks, there will be no response. There will be no order to respond.
Right. That's the point. That's what Putin got when he won our election
F*ck you, CNN for normalizing this joker for 3 campaigns. You're loving this.. it's more clicks. #Carpetbagger
So in the First term Trump boasted about building up the Military to the worlds finest military from nothing. And now he wants to dismantle it? Is he giving the USA to Russia?
DO SOMETHING
what is the line Trump administration needs to cross? jailing people in foreign countries? firing people for no reason? firing all the generals who aren’t political kiss asses? violating the Constitution? breaking the law? can we decide before the full blown tyranny starts
Could? I’m sure it will.
You think? I’m sure Putin is paying close attention.
COULD break the law?
bsky.app/profile/forc...
Defense officials seem to have missed that breaking stuff everywhere is the point
COULD?
If it breaks the law, you sue. Again, anytime Musk does any of this stuff, the only response should be, "See you in court, Afrikaner."
Trump put a Drunk in charge of the military, is gutting the VA, and is now trying to gut the Pentagon of its civilian employees who keep everything running. Trump, Muck, Vance, and the rest of the Broligarch Thugs fear the military, the Rule of Law, & all those who honestly defend the country.
Then stop fearing and stand up for law & democracy
The FAA firings have gone so well! Why not? 😵💫
It will break the law…. Stop saying could!
He went into his first term revering the generals and came out of his term with disdain toward them. He has an axe to grind with the military as well
Do the people that enjoy seeing all the federal employees getting fired not realize the federal government is in fact the American people!? Hope they’re ready for a real life demonstration of Economics 101.
There is no reason to comply with DOGE.
In another "cost-cutting" move, the University of Hawaii's Institute for Astronomy fires staff. This is the group that found the asteroid that may hit Earth. Don't look up!
yet another gift to Putin
Is Vladimir Putin helping to draft the Musk-go list?
Gee CNN, ya think? But you're concerned whether calling someone a dick is productive discourse.
We can see that coming.
“Party of law enforcement and strong military.” Ha! Although they disagree to buy 400 million in armor plated cyber trucks! Weird they had money for that, but now have to slash budgets for other stuff. I wonder what the common denominator here is… Hhmm..it’s a mystery!
Perhaps that’s THE PLAN… to harm US military readiness! ALL OF THIS… IS TO HARM THE US AT HOME AND ON THE WORLD STAGE!
This needs to get out www.project2025.observer
Who could have foreseen such a consequence? Well NOBODY in his incompetent administration. Hey Republican Senators, are you regretting your confirmation of Hegseth yet? Give it time.
Certainly not the FBI, CIA or other spy agencies…evidently those capabilities were exaggerated too.
This rogue regime doesn't care about the law.
That's the plan
Ya think?
i have a tiny bit of hope the pentagon will be the one place in govt that this shit stops. not a lot of hope, but some.
CNN, get your story right. Trump has been breaking the law for weeks. Call it like it is. You're a news channel. Act like one!!!
Don’t worry, our military is more than a match for Greenland. /s just in case.
THE LAW HAS ALREADY BEEN BROKEN AND CONGRESS DOESN'T FUCKING CARE
Trump.doesnt.care.
I’m getting dizzy from constantly shaking my head
They think it "could harm"?!
They’re breaking the f’ing law all over the place?!?!? Stop talking and start acting.
For all his talk of lethality and readiness, Hegseth is more likely to metabolize a bottle or two than analyze anything. Are reporters carrying breathalyzers?
That’s exactly what this maga admin wants
Maybe it’s just too much for the rabid alcoholic to manage
Soon we'll be hearing about the military ordering rolls of red carpets embroidered with yellow hammer and sickles so they can warmly welcome Russian generals to receive Trump's gift of taking over our military.
Cmon man, it’s no longer Soviets , get with the times.
That’s likely the point. Trump wants to destroy us.
Well a drunk who can’t stop drinking and is in the psychosis stage of his alcoholism, runs the pentagon. Our military has never looked weaker than it does right now. China knows this, Putin knows this. Trump knows this. America knows this.
Incompetence. Why not just say NO? Allegiance to constitution not prez or self proclaimed king.
It's almost like Trump is intentionally trying to disarm and decimate the US while decimating the economies of allies? The question is why, is he making it easier for his buddy Putin to invade?
Harm our readiness. Ya think!
Independence for California *NOW*. We can't wait for Trump and his fanatics to destroy the rest of the US. We should leave asap taking all our assets with us.
That's the point
MAGA is willing to threaten our physical security in order to lower taxes on billionaires.
Is Trump trying to weaken the U.S. to give Russia the upperhand?
What law, Trump is king isn't he?
Harming US military readiness is their goal. We are going to have to face it.
Yeah no shit. This is enemy action. Trump is gutting the US defense, the intelligence, even the nukes. It's a comprehensive assault to remove Americas ability to defend itself.
All at Daddy Putin’s bidding
Well they could speak up
I think we need to fire trump and musk.
No shit. Ya think?
Of course they would, as any reasonable person would realize, but instead decisions are being made by a bunch of dicks.
Break law. Lol. Thats all he is doing and no one is arresting him or his minions. Lock them out of the building just like DOGE did.
When the US army is gonna stop this shit....hellllooo, there's actually a coup in USA
They don’t care!
It’s not the trans scape goats it’s the right that is wrong for national security.
When even the officials drafting the termination lists are worried about legality and military readiness, it sounds like a recipe for chaos. Let's hope the decision-makers prioritize integrity and the well-being of our forces over expediency.
Putin will love that.
Leaving the door wide open for attack
Perhaps all civilian employees of the Pentagon should resign as one. Government jobs are no longer safe in the USA anyway.
😡🤬😡
