(Dan Caldwell on Tucker)
Back in January, I warned that Koch assets were infiltrating the Pentagon despite President Trump’s explicit warning that they should not be hired.
“As of today, the incoming Trump Administration has hired over 1,000 people,” President Trump tweeted. “It would be helpful if you would not send, or recommend to us people who worked with, or are endorsed by, Americans for No Prosperity (headed by Charles Koch)” along with a long list of others.
But by then it was already too late. The Kochers were already on the inside.
Dan Caldwell, listed as a lobbyist by Americans for Prosperity who worked for a number of Koch network groups, has been staffing up the Department of Defense with ‘Kochlings’.
Caldwell, who pushed appeasement of China and Iran, is now out.
Dan Caldwell, a senior adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, was escorted out of the Pentagon by security officers and had his building access suspended pending further investigation, said two of the officials, who were granted anonymity to discuss an ongoing probe.
Two out of three of the Pentagon personnel allegedly suspected of leaks are Koch people. Not a coincidence. Some of those people and their allies have put on a full-court press including Dan Caldwell who rushed to Tucker for some PR. Tucker, who lately has spent more time defending Islamic terror states than dealing with any of America’s crises, did his usual routine.
Secretary of Defense Hegseth however pushed back hard against tolerating leakers in the DOD.
Sec Def confirms this morning that he fired Caldwell et al for leaking to press, accuses them of subverting POTUS agenda with ideological campaigns.
None of the leakers fully deny the accusations. Some only claim they did not leak *classified* info.

And he’s right.
The pro-leak side sound exactly like the Obama people in Trump’s first term arguing that they need to leak to stop America from taking action against Iran, but that’s because they’re working toward the same ends. Obama and even Kamala’s people are endorsing more of the same useless negotiations with Iran. When you’re on the same page as Obama’s people in every respect, then how is that America First?
And if you’re going after Secretary of Defense Hegseth in support of an Obama policy, what are you?
Obama 3.0? MOGA. Whatever the hell you are, it’s not America First.
One solution is to ban the use of “Signal'” or whatever it’s called. He obviously doesn’t understand the dangers of insecure software and is too dumb to figure it out for himself, so just ban the use of “Signal”. Can’t afford to give Democrats their first scalp, that will just make them hungry for more.
