“They don’t want Hegseth out at DOD because he’s failing, but because he’s succeeding.
RECRUITING IS UP
After historic lows, Army and Marine Corps recruiting have rebounded. The Army reported a 10% increase in new enlistments year-over-year, the Marine Corps hit 100% of its recruiting goals, and retention surged across active-duty units. This after years of missing targets and morale sliding under politicized leadership.
MORALE IS UP
A recent RAND Corporation survey shows a 15-point jump in troop satisfaction compared to 2021, particularly among combat units. The return to traditional values and mission focus is driving re-enlistment and unity.
STANDARDS ARE UP
The Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT), once watered down, has been reformed to restore challenge and purpose. Waivers for substandard recruits are being reduced, not expanded.
EFFICIENCY IS UP
Bloated bureaucracy is under the knife — replaced with battlefield-focused streamlining.
AMERICA’S INFLUENCE IS UP
Philippines and Taiwan: Joint exercises up 30% year-over-year.
NATO posture: Over 40,000 troops now forward-deployed across Eastern Europe.
Middle East: Regional deterrence missions have stabilized, and Iran-backed attacks on U.S. bases have declined 60% since Q3 2023.
LETHALITY IS UP
The U.S. military is again training for warfighting, not workshops. Combat-readiness scores from CENTCOM and INDOPACOM showed a 20% increase in unit preparedness over FY2022 levels. Investment in hypersonics, space defense, and cyberwarfare is finally being prioritized.
The warrior ethos is ascendant. Pete Hegseth stands in the way of the neocons and the woke.”

No matter how much it upsets the Democrats, we voted to remove this from the military 👇 pic.twitter.com/CPEHkIo7gM

They don’t hate Hegseth because he’s ineffective, they hate him because he’s undoing their damage. When recruiting, morale, and readiness go up, the swamp gets nervous. That tells you everything.

Pete Hegseth has been the best secretary of defense we’ve had in decades.
The Deep State and CCP propagandists want nothing more than to weaken our military and make us helpless again.
