John Ullyot, who resigned last week as chief Pentagon spokesperson, predicted that Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth will also be out of a job soon.

Ullyot called it a “strange and baffling purge” that has led to “a near collapse inside the Pentagon’s top ranks.”

And he warned that even more “bombshell” stories about Hegseth and the Defence Department are about to drop.

    It’s worth noting that what you said is the only way this guy is going to get fired. Trump has literally zero intrinsic understanding of the issue. He doesn’t use computers or smartphones, probably has only a vague grasp of what an app or end-to-end encryption are, and no understanding of app security vs device security. He has literally no basis on which to understand any of this, and crucially, he won’t care to learn if someone explains it to him.

    So yeah I have no doubt that he’s completely baffled by all of this and doesn’t really see how it affects him.

            The point is that it doesn’t matter whether or not Trump uses Twitter. He’s oblivious To the real issues here And has no intention of figuring anything out because he just doesn’t care. If it doesn’t affect him personally, then he just doesn’t give a .

              Oh yeah for sure agree that he is oblivious and could not care less, I was just caught off guard with the ‘he doesn’t use a smartphone’ thing.
