Another day of intense media flogging of what has now been unoriginally dubbed as “Signalgate” has the potential goal of Democrats and their Deep State friends coming into clearer focus.
On a day when so-called “journalist” Jeffrey Goldberg published the contents of the chat with top Trump administration officials that he mysteriously was allowed to eavesdrop on, the focus of the ginned-up hysteria has been directed at Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.
The question now should be whether the operation is less an effort to discredit Trump’s team as a whole and more of a targeted decapitation strike on the Pentagon with the objective being to remove an outsider who is loyal to the president, determined to clean up the previous regimes’ DEI mess and to return America to full warfighting capability.

With Goldberg having already played his role in launching the chat into the media and already walking back the sensationalist “war plans” angle that was the initial hook and likely now fading into the background, the spotlight now has been shifted to the defense secretary who will be at the center of an intense propaganda campaign to force him out and put the Pentagon back under establishment control.
Hegseth barely squeaked by his Senate confirmation, and only after he publicly posted a letter to Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) answering his questions about a smear campaign driven by the nominee’s ex-sister-in-law, accusing him of being a drunken spousal abuser. The answers to the RINO senator’s questions were sufficient to shame him into dropping his opposition and still it took Vice President J.D. Vance to cast the tiebreaking vote.
Democrats and the blood barters who profit off keeping the war machine running weren’t easily deterred, and now “Signalgate” is their second shot at eliminating Hegseth with extreme prejudice because that is exactly how it looks.
Democrats moved in like sharks with a scent of blood in the water.

The American people aren’t stupid. Pete Hegseth disclosed sensitive information, put our troops at risk, and then lied about it.
Trump must fire Hegseth. https://t.co/BITgwesnCu

Secretary Hegseth needs to resign.
If there is zero accountability for this level of incompetence; if there are no repercussions when our top national security leaders are caught lying to the American public, our nation’s credibility is destroyed. pic.twitter.com/0UbkeXYinL

Our Defense Secretary put our planes and pilots at risk by discussing war plans including timing and weapons systems in an unclassified setting. Unacceptable. We need a full investigation—in Congress and by the national security agencies.https://t.co/9FrmdhoebX

.@RepJimmyGomez outrageously implies @SecDef was drunk during the successful Houthi strikes, going so far as to repeat a delusional (and debunked) conspiracy theory that he “stood in front of a podium in Europe holding a drink” (it was WATER).
Shame on you, Jim. Disgusting. pic.twitter.com/miigymCauu

And seemingly determined to prove that Jasmine Crockett doesn’t have a monopoly on being a trashy bitch, Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-MO) couldn’t simply just demand Hegeth’s resignation, but had to drop an f-bomb in more profanity from a Democrat lawmaker, something that they are fluent in.
“Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately,” she said.

The last Defense Secretary ghosted his job for days, and yet none of the presstitutes or Democrats were demanding Lloyd Austin’s resignation. It’s all about politics, it always is with them.
The evildoers would like nothing more than to oust Hegseth and replace him with someone more in line with a DEI hire like Austin or cut from the same cloth as the traitorous tub of guts Mark Milley. Of course, their top choice would have been Liz Cheney, but the election took care of that one.
The unfolding weapons-grade smear campaign against Hegesth will be a test of whether the thoroughly discredited media still has the power that it did during the first Trump administration, with the ability to manufacture narratives that serve the corrupt Democratic Party and the murky Deep State forces that use it as an exoskeleton.
