Summary

The Pentagon announced a new annual media rotation program, removing established outlets like NBC News, The New York Times, NPR, and Politico from dedicated workspaces.

The memo orders these organizations to vacate their offices in two weeks, while replacing them with outlets such as OANN, New York Post, Breitbart, and HuffPost.

NBC News expressed disappointment over losing long-held technical capabilities essential for timely reporting.

The move follows Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s narrow confirmation and signals a broader effort to reshape Pentagon media access, transforming U.S. government communications permanently.

    My take is that we have entered the apex of the MAGA phase.

    Now that the incompetents have achieved power, they will start to destroy themselves through stupidity.

    Don’t get me wrong, a lot of damage will be visited upon the heads of the innocent. But it is going to take this destruction to demonstrate just what a terrible idea it was to install these dickheads in the first place.

    After all, the voters were warned, and also got a taste of chaos in the first series. They still voted him in.

    Ok, let Trump set the electorate’s hair on fire and see what happens next.

      Apathy. Apathy is what happens next.

      “I have bills to pay, I’m not taking time off to protest”

      “I’m not the one being deported, sure, I feel bad but it’s not like one voice will make a difference”

      Etc…
