Shakeups in Military Leadership and General Officers are always going to provoke a response from the current establishment Military or otherwise. Donahue represents the Military establishment and patronage networks. An establishment with current leanings towards vested Corporate interests currently aligned with the left, and political interests in protecting the status quo.
But Hegseth is taking a flamethrower to both the current Military Establishment and the Defense Industry. Changing up drastically the rules governing it. Including blatantly threatening the major contractors with revoking contracts and other undisclosed penalties. Rumored to include direct seizure of assets and facilities. If they can’t clean up their act and start meeting both reasonable production schedules and stay within approved budgets. Also they made it easier for small time companies to both qualify for Military Grants and Contracts.
I bet clowns like this loved the DEI shit,cause they could use it as a weapon. Anyone who stood in their way,they could take out,by organizing complaints.

I’m so old I remember when Obama did it … and crickets from the left.
Obama did it bigly! And very quickly!
This is a good read. The description of the social politics is very real. Hegseth is a national hero.
