United States Pentagon is in turmoil this morning after Pete Hexseth forced out one of the most senior commanders in the United States military because he is paranoid over his future as a Secretary of Defense. Defense it comes as wounded families of wounded service members in the war in Iran are calling out the Pentagon's language. Trump himself is calling Republicans traitors for voting to rein in his war powers, and at the same time calling for investigations by the Department of Justice into oil companies who will not simply just lower gas prices. It comes after a major election night from New York to to South Carolina to Utah and Maryland. Lots of results happening and I have all the latest for you right now. Make sure to like comment, share and if you can subscribe to my substack link below to support my work yesterday A really cool story happened last night. I was walking in the mall and a 67 year old woman came up to me and a 19 year old man came up to me. Don't know each other, two separate people in the span of one hour and literally told me without you, I wouldn't get news. We're breaking through. I didn't care about their political party affiliation, I didn't care where they stood. But they literally said if you didn't exist, we wouldn't watch the news. And that's why I do this work, to reach people who may not get the news or who are disenchanted with the news or who just want something better and different. So thank you for building this platform with me. Thank you for subscribing to my substack to support this and have the resources to continue building. Right now we are seeing a major change in the United States Pentagon. According to CBS News, when Defense Secretary Pete Hecseth was asked about the toll of the conflict with Iran, he told reporters that almost 90% of the 400American service members had sustained only minor injuries. Some of those wounded soldiers tell cbs, however, they were far more serious than the official designation provided by the military. Chief Warrant Officer Rodney Berman's body was riddled with shrapnel in the early hours of the war on March 1, when an Iranian drone slammed into his workstation in Kuwai. Medical records show he suffered a concussion, hearing and vision loss, and damage to his lungs. The army classified his condition as, quote, not seriously injured. That assessment is unacceptable. Chris Biermann was one of the more than 20 hurt in the deadliest strike on American soldiers, the worst attack on American troops since 2021. The Biermanns are also among several survivors and families who told CBS that they were being treated by the military as combat casualties for reasons they could not understand, a claim an army spokesperson denied. In several cases, injured service members say they had been cleared for duty. But that duty involves active orders to recuperate from injuries in specialized, quote, soldier recovery units. One of them, Sergeant First Class Corey Hicks, who's 37 years old, underwent and suffered severe shrapnel wounds from the blast and underwent multiple surgeries in a Kuwaiti hospital. He said his wife was told by an army official that after the strikes, his injuries were minor. They said your husband was injured. He has a minor jaw injury and he's going to be returned to duty. He absolutely believes that. The United States army and the Pentagon have tried to downplay the incident, and it comes today as Pete hegseth forced the retirement of General Chris Donahue, the commander of the US Army Europe and Africa and NATO's Allied Land Command was made at his request, according to the Wall Street Journal. Prior to this announcement, many believe Donahue was on a fast track to become vice chair, vice chief of staff of the army, having led the Army's Delta Force commandos in Iraq and Syria when it took the fight to Islamic State militants and was the last man out when the troops he commanded at the 82nd Airborne Division were called in to secure the 2021 evacuation of US personnel and allies out of Kabul, Afghanistan. General Donahue's removal is said to be in part of an ongoing push by Hexa to put his imprint on the military's leadership while squeezing out officers with track records of battlefield valor and command experience in favor of less accomplished political loyalists, officers that fully support both himself and President Trump. And it comes as Trump himself is calling Republicans who voted against him essentially traitors, saying that when he has Iran on the ropes ready to go down for the fall, willing to give us everything and for the first time in decades respecting the hell out of the US President, the Senate decides to have poorly timed and meaningless War Powers act vote telling the number one state sponsor of terror in the world that the United States doesn't like what I am doing and I must stop and by doing so has provided aid and comfort the enemy. That phrase is a direct quote from the treason statute. Four Republican losers voted with Democrats and Iran asked my people what does this all mean? These senators have just made my job more difficult, but I will get it done one way or another because I will always get it done. And this morning he's calling on oil companies to be investigated. Many of these oil companies are his donors or his friends, but he's upset that they're not just dropping the price at the pump. He wants them to drop gas prices, saying that because they're paying less for oil because oil prices globally have been reduced, they should just drop their prices and has instruct the DOJ to immediately look into this. One of the reasons that oil companies haven't just dropped their prices is because the oil market is so influx, right? If they drop their prices today to where the oil price and this is not me defending oil companies by any means. I think that gas prices are way too high. But when you have an oil market that literally is a pendulum and swings high and swings low every five minutes because of the President's words, how can companies price that? It doesn't make sense. And well now one senator tells me Trump's new Director of National Intelligence is a national security threat. I want to jump right into it. I don't know if you saw but Ms. Now reported today that firings have begun in the intelligence community led by Director Bill Pulte. What is your reaction to these firings and to Pulte being acting DNI right now?

Well, first of all, this was what I was worried about. This guy is totally not qualified for the job. We don't have confirmation that firings have taken place. I've seen a lot of press reports. We have made inquiries. It seems like it's totally chaotic at the office of National Director of National Intelligence. There was word there was going to be firings. Then he said he changed his mind. So we don't know the accuracy but this is the kind of chaos at a moment when we've got the World cup going on. We're coming up on the 250th anniversary of our country. What we and to have this chaos, the Director of National Intelligence is crazy. What we do know is two things that have been widely reported that I don't like make people's head even more explode. Number one, he was saying well could he take home the Presidential Daily Brief? This is the most classified of all information. The idea that you could take it to a non secure location like your house shows his complete ignorance of our system. The other thing is and this was such a Trumpian kind of focus, he wanted to know how soon he was going to get a government private plane so he could fly between dc, his house in Chicago and his place to I guess continue to genuflect before Trump down in Florida. So the priorities on private plane, misuse of classified information and then so in chaos. This is why we so wanted to not have him even go in.

Pretty stunning words from Mark Warner who spoke with me over the past 24 hours. Now there are major election results. Last night in New York City Mamdani swept Claire Valdez won in New York. 7. Daria Aliza Chevalier won in New York. 13 Brad Lander beat Dan Goldman in New York. I believe it's 10. You also had more moderate APAC back candidate win in New York. 17. In Maryland you had Adrian Boafo, also a more moderate candidate win in Maryland. 5 defeating Harry Dunn Wes Moore the governor won re election in Utah, the moderate candidate in Utah won. Ben McAdams, a former congressman beat the Bernie backed left candidate. And in South Carolina Trump's endorsed candidate who I mean he endorsed her later on he endorsed Laura Everett to be Governor of South Carolina. She lost. And then remember, he put out a joint endorsement for the other Republican, knowing that she was going to lose. So that's the latest right now.
