That ignorant, drunken, talk-show-host, rapist Sec Def is systematically purging the military of women. Im sure hed be fine with keeping them around to cook and clean. Maybe they can do some clerical work. But thats about it. After all, if you dont have a penis theres really not much youre good at (except for, well, you know.)
Theyre just making it impossible for women to pursue their careers:
Everything was set for the Navy officer to take over a new role that would have capped an already distinguished career and made her the first woman in a Naval Special Warfare command overseeing Navy SEALs.
Ranked the top officer for promotion in her cohort, she received a Purple Heart after being injured in an IED attack during a combat tour in Iraq. She then became the first woman to serve with SEAL Team Six in the role of troop commander, one of several senior positions within the squadrons that make up the elite naval unit.
A formal ceremony marking her new position was planned for July. Invitations went out two months in advance.
But just two weeks before the ceremony, her command was abruptly canceled with little explanation, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation. The decision didnt come through formal channels but by a series of phone calls from the Pentagon, one of the sources said. The circumstances were unusual and seemed designed to omit a paper trail, according to multiple sources.
Under the Navys up or out policy, with no command slot to take, the officers more than two-decade military career was effectively over.
Everybody knew it was Hegseth. Hes made it clear that he doesnt want any women in leadership roles (or really, in the military at all.)
