Pentagon Pete Ignores War Prep to Go on Bonkers Rant About Boy Scouts

President Donald Trump’s administration is preparing for a literal war while its “Secretary of War” rants about restoring a children’s organization to its perceived glory of yesteryear.

“After 2012, the Boy Scouts lost their way, and a once great organization became gravely wounded,” Pete Hegseth, who remains legally designated Defense Secretary despite his department’s informal MAGA rebrand last year, says in a bizarre video posted on X Friday.

The United States is presently closer to an all-out conflict with Iran than at any other time since the Islamic Revolution of 1979. Trump has reportedly sent an additional 10,000 troops to the Middle East and increased naval presence in the region to 16 warships, including a fresh dispatch of two aircraft carrier strike groups. More than a hundred combat aircraft are now standing by for action.
