Show Notes
On Tuesday, October 6, Rush Lindell and Reagan take on Pete Hegseth's plan to cut one in five generals and admirals, and ask whether it is a long-overdue shake-up or a purge.
First, what Hegseth actually announced at Quantico, how the 20% breaks down, and why the Jan. 1 deadline for roughly 170 slots matters. Then, why Republican senators say they were blindsided and what they want in notice and transparency. Then, a parody, a Lear Capital sponsor read, and the competing price tags on the Iran war. Finally, why some Republicans are now campaigning against that war, what the $67B supplemental request means, and how the midterm damage scores out.
Rush says accountability beats hurt feelings. Reagan can back a smaller brass, but not one nobody has explained. Both say to watch the list: who went, why, and whether the rules were applied evenly.
Who's right? Weigh in, and tune in for the next episode.
