Hegseth's Chief Of Staff Out After Leaked Signal Chats; Pentagon In Chaos As Top Officials Ousted

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s Chief of Staff, Joe Kasper, is stepping down amid a deepening leak scandal tied to unauthorized Signal chats about U.S. strikes on Yemen.

His resignation follows the ousting of three top Pentagon advisors, reportedly over clashes with Kasper.

The White House is standing by Hegseth, though pressure mounts after claims a journalist was accidentally included in sensitive Signal discussions.

Critics have described “a month of total chaos” at the Pentagon as investigations and accusations of character attacks continue to rock the defense leadership.

Rubio Slams NATO Allies As ‘Junior Partners’, Demands 5% Defense Spend Ahead Of June Summit

In a bold rebuke of NATO dynamics, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has called out European allies for falling short on defense spending. Labeling them “junior partners,” Rubio pushed for a drastic hike—up to 5% of GDP—to maintain NATO’s credibility. At his first NATO foreign ministers meeting, he reassured US commitment but demanded others pull their weight. Echoing this, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned Europe that US protection is no longer guaranteed unless NATO nations step up. The upcoming June summit will directly address these simmering tensions. #NATO #Rubio #DefenseSpending #USForeignPolicy #MarcoRubio #NATOAllies #NATOSummit #TrumpAdministration #EuropeDefense #Pentagon #PeteHegseth #MikeWaltz #NATOBudget #5PercentGDP #MilitarySpending #USvsEurope #NATOTensions #ForeignAffairs #GlobalSecurity #NATOFuture Also Read US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk-Marco Rubio Clash Over Staff Cuts In Explosive Meeting In Trump's Presence; US Prez Denies Blow Up :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-marco-rubio-clash-over-staff-cuts-in-explosive-meeting-in-trumps-presence-us-prez-denies-4089603.html?ref=DMDesc US-Europe Divide Deepens Over Ukraine As Trump Challenges NATO's Approach :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-europe-divide-deepens-over-ukraine-as-trump-challenges-natos-approach-4080283.html?ref=DMDesc

U.S Army Commander Suspended Over 'Missing Trump Wall'| No Photos Of Trump, Vance, Hegseth Displayed

Colonel Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended from command at Fort McCoy after the base failed to display official portraits of President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The glaring omission sparked backlash when empty frames were spotted on the command wall. Defense officials launched an immediate investigation, and the Department of Defense later updated the wall, saying “we fixed it.” Secretary Hegseth confirmed the suspension on X. The military called it an “unusual oversight,” but refused to share further details about the decision. #Trump #JDVance #PeteHegseth #FortMcCoy #MilitaryNews #Army #CommandWall #ColonelRamirez #TrumpAdministration #WhiteHouse #DefenseDept #USArmy #BreakingNews #PortraitFlap #LeadershipShakeup #DOD #TrumpPortrait #MilitaryCommand #USPolitics #ArmyInvestigation #MilitaryControversy #Pentagon #Vance #TrumpSupporters #ArmyBase #SheylaRamirez #NewsUpdate #XPost #GOP #MilitaryReform #CommandScandal Also Read Trump Considers Temporary Exemption from Auto Tariffs to Aid Car Manufacturers Amid Economic Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-considers-temporary-exemption-auto-tariffs-011-4124041.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Dismisses General Tim Haugh from National Security Agency Amidst Congressional Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-fires-general-tim-haugh-national-security-agency-011-4115013.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Iran: Strike A Nuclear Deal In Two Months Or Face Unprecedented Bombing :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-iran-strike-a-nuclear-deal-in-two-months-or-face-unprecedented-bombing-4109797.html?ref=DMDesc

U.S Military Using CHINA-MADE Drones? Pentagon's Tariffs Blue List IGNORED By Defense Firms

Despite Trump-era tariffs and Pentagon bans, nearly every drone used by American companies still contains critical Chinese components. From engines to airframes and batteries, U.S. drone tech — including military-grade hardware — remains heavily reliant on China. Silicon Valley startups, defense contractors, and even top officials like VP J.D. Vance have been exposed using Chinese tech. With China controlling nearly 90% of global drone hardware, experts warn that any cutoff couldcripple the U.S. drone industry for up to a year. #ChinaTech #Drones #USMilitary #DefenseIndustry #DroneWar #TradeWar #Pentagon #SupplyChainCrisis #BeijingTech #JDVance #AmericanDrones #TrumpTariffs #NationalSecurity #TechDependence #DronePolitics #SiliconValley #TariffBackfire #DroneImports #BlueList #ChinaControl #CriticalTech #USvsChina #DroneMarket #ChineseHardware #TechNews #BreakingNews #DefenseTech #AIandDrones #WarTech #DroneShortage #BannedTech

Houthis Hammer USS Harry Truman? U.S' $60 Mn F/A-18E Jet Destroyed in Mysterious Red Sea Incident

A $60 million U.S. Navy F/A-18E Super Hornet has been lost under mysterious circumstances in the Red Sea after what appears to be a high-intensity encounter involving the USS Harry S. Truman and Houthi forces. According to the U.S. Navy, the aircraft was under tow when the move crew lost control, sending it overboard — but questions are mounting. The incident comes amid escalating attacks on the Truman carrier group by Yemen’s Ansar Allah forces, sparking speculation of a potential strike rather than an accident. With rising tensions in the region and Truman’s recent history of close calls, experts are questioning the official narrative. #USSTruman #USNavy #AircraftCarrier #FA18E #RedSeaCrisis #NavyJetLost #USTrumanAccident #USMilitary #HouthiVsUSA #RedSeaConflict #USNavyIncident #FighterJetLost #USAttackOnHouthi #NavyMishap #USSAccident
