'A Politicized Military Is..': Democrat Reed's Fiery Attack On Pete Hegseth Over U.S. Military Norms

US News: Senator Jack Reed delivered a blistering Senate floor speech accusing Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth of undermining the U.S. military’s long-standing tradition of political neutrality. He argued that Hegseth’s remarks at Normandy’s D-Day commemoration, his controversial West Point commencement address, campaign-style appearances in Kentucky, and alleged interference in military promotions and discipline are eroding trust in America’s armed forces. Warning that 'a politicized military is a dangerous military,' Reed said the Pentagon must remain above partisan politics to preserve its credibility, unity, and effectiveness.
