SUPPORT WTFA ON PATREON

Bulldog: The strongest people I've known abhor violence. Bulldog: Should our enemies choose foolishly to challenge us, they will be crushed by the violence, precision and ferocity of the War Department. Bulldog: Sun Tzu writes, "The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting." Bulldog: We're ending the war on warriors. Pete Hegseth said that. Bulldog: And starting the war against ourselves? Bulldog: We should use some of these dangerous cities, the ones that are run by the radical left Democrats, as training grounds for our military.

NEW COMIC TWO OR THREE TIMES A WEEK, OR WHEN THE MOOD STRIKES

It's one thing to know that the people who have the keys to the White House have no idea of what modern warfare looks like, have no idea how the world's most powerful military should be run, have no notion of what it means to lead honorably or follow bravely. But for Trump and Hegseth to get up and show everyone in no uncertain terms how ignorant they are, that's something else. Hegseth talks like a weak bully, like someone who hasn't the strength and moral clarity to lead. He's worse than a mere talking head. He clearly thinks threatening nebulous "enemies" is what tough guys do. That's not tough. That's showboating. And then his boss gets up and tells the assembled generals -- who swore an oath to the Constitution, which, lest we forget, starts with "We the People" -- that we are the enemies, citizens, people who live in cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago. Well, yeah. I'm the enemy of Pete Hegseth. I'm the enemy of Donald Trump. I'm the enemy of anyone who thinks the Constitution shouldn't apply to everyone. I'm the enemy of anyone who thinks the military should use American cities for practice. How is that not chilling? How is it that every single military leader at that meeting hasn't gotten up publically to speak out against this?

They keep saying "peace through strength". You know where that phrase comes from? Neville Chamberlain's public relations campaign to avoid war with Hitler.
