Oct 1, 2025 | In a deranged, demeaning, and dangerous speech to our nation's military leadership - officer and enlisted alike - Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump may have thought they could inspire the men and women of the military to switch their loyalties from the Constitution to a tyrant. They were dead wrong.
The danger and dementia of Donald Trump was on full display as he addressed the leadership of America's armed forces. Trump tried to pit the military against the citizenry by saying the military should focus on "the enemy within." And he told them that they should use American cities as military "training grounds."
If there was any lingering question about Trump unfitness to be commander in chief of the armed forces, he cleared that up with a speech that was as un-American as it was dangerous, as this video discusses.
Oct 3, 2025 | The minute Donald Trump told the military leadership that they should use American cities and the American people as "military training grounds" every member of the military leadership instantly knew that Trump is dangerously unfit to be commander in chief of the armed forces. In fact, urging the military to conduct war training operations in American cities and on the American people - who Trump called "the enemy from within", - makes clear that Trump is a domestic enemy of the Constitution.
I spoke with military law expert, law professor, and retired Army JAG officer [Judge Advocate General’s Corps] Dan Maurer about this dangerous development.
Oct 1, 2025 | MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell details how military commanders who listened to Donald Trump’s “deranged” speech have to be wondering “just how much more dangerous their jobs are now that they've seen just how lost and sick their Commander-in-Chief is.”
