Trump desperately wants to be a part of this crucial meeting. He can’t afford to miss it.
And President Trump is set to rush away for a secret meeting with top military officials.
President Trump is set to make an appearance at Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s high-level huddle with the military’s elite generals at Marine Corps Base Quantico this Tuesday.
Hegseth called in the top commanders on short notice, keeping the agenda under wraps at first, which sent the usual suspects into a frenzy. Turns out, it’s all about firing up the troops with some good old-fashioned motivation.
“It’s really just a very nice meeting talking about how well we’re doing militarily, talking about being in great shape, talking about a lot of good, positive things. It’s just a good message,” Trump said on Sunday when speaking NBC News.
“We have some great people coming in, and it’s just an ‘esprit de corps.’ You know the expression ‘esprit de corps?’ That’s all it’s about. We’re talking about what we’re doing, what they’re doing and how we’re doing.”
The left-wing critics were quick to spin wild tales, whispering about a massive overhaul or even a leadership purge. But let’s face it, they’re always looking for drama where there’s none.
Back in May, Hegseth, a battle-hardened Army National Guard vet, already streamlined the ranks to cut the fat and ramp up real efficiency.
This directive pulls in every senior officer from brigadier general on up— that’s over 800 admirals and generals who keep our nation safe.
These warriors are scattered across global outposts, making this kind of mass assembly a rare event that shows real commitment.
The venue? Right there at Quantico, just 30 miles from the swamp of DC.
Hegseth has always pushed hard for stricter military discipline and reigniting that fierce warrior mindset in our troops—something that’s been watered down by years of weak policies.
White House insiders confirm Hegseth’s plan is to highlight the military’s big wins and map out a strong path ahead for the Department of War.
Trump, ever the straight shooter, brushed off the hysteria from his opponents like dust on his shoulder.
“I love it, I mean, I think it’s great,” Trump said to reporters on Thursday when talking about the meeting.
“Let [Hegseth] be friendly with the generals and admirals from all over the world.”
“You act like this is a bad thing. Isn’t it nice that people are coming from all over the world to be with us?” the president said.
Happening right before the midnight deadline for Congress to dodge a partial government shutdown, this summit adds extra fire to the mix.
If those politicians can’t get their act together, it might snag travel for these top brass heading back to their posts worldwide—another mess courtesy of DC gridlock.
