Pentagon Chief Spokesman Sean Parnell outlined several accomplishments from the Department of Defense in its first weekly situation report.
Parnell explained the purpose of the report is to be “the most transparent DOD in American history for our warfighters and the American people.” He explained the week was an “action-packed America First week at the Department of Defense.”
Discussing the DOD’s successes, Parnell described the nomination of Lieutenant General Dan “Razin” Kane as the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Dan Driscoll as Secretary of the Army.
“Super psyched about that,” Parnell said. “And we are very much looking forward to having them both on the team here at the Pentagon.”
Parnell noted that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth visited Naval Station Guantanamo Bay in Cuba to meet with warfighters and inspect the “detention facilities where criminal illegal aliens are being held as they await swift deportation.”
The spokesman explained that the United Kingdom will increase its defense spending in response to “Secretary Hegseth’s push for European NATO leadership just two weeks ago, this despite a legacy media narrative that the Secretary’s NATO trip remarks needed to be walked back or would somehow backfire. As usual, the legacy media was wrong.”
Parnell went on to state that diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) content will be removed. “DoD-wide at the Pentagon, we reject the divisive and discriminatory notion that diversity is our strength,” he said. “It’s not. Our shared unity and purpose are our strengths.”
“And finally, at President Trump’s first cabinet meeting, Secretary Hegseth promised the American people the overdue accountability that they deserve for the Biden administration’s disastrous withdrawal.”
