Conservatives might not be cheering every move of the second Trump administration, but President Trump is delivering a gut punch to the woke rot infecting our armed forces.

No more rainbow flags or trans propaganda shoved down the throats of our troops, who train to win wars and are ready to make the ultimate sacrifice.

War Secretary Pete Hegseth is leading the charge, and he’s not mincing words.

At a fiery gathering of top generals and admirals at Marine Corps Base Quantico on Tuesday, Hegseth laid down the law: combat troops must meet "male-level" fitness standards to face "life and death" situations.

"Frankly, it’s tiring to look out at combat formations — and frankly any formations — and see fat troops," he declared. "It’s unacceptable to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon, and leading all around the world. It’s a bad look, and it’s not who we are!"

Hegseth’s directive, set to roll out across all service branches, mandates daily "real hard" physical training and biannual tests to meet the “highest male standard."

Women or “weak men” who can’t hack it? "So be it," he said. "Standards must be uniform, gender-neutral, and high. If not, they’re not standards. They’re just suggestions. Suggestions that get our sons and daughters killed."

The secretary didn’t stop there. He’s purging the military of DEI nonsense and identity-based promotions.

"No more identity months, DEI offices, dudes in dresses, no more climate change worship, no more division, distraction or gender delusion, no more debris," Hegseth thundered. "I’ve said before and will say again, we are done with that s–t."

Hegseth has already fired heavyweights like former Joint Chiefs Chairman C.Q. Brown and Navy Chief Adm. Lisa Franchetti, slamming their promotions as products of woke policies.

"It’s nearly impossible to change a culture with the same people who helped create or even benefited from that culture," he said.

The Secretary of War also took aim at unprofessional appearances.

"No more beards, long hair, superficial individual expression," he ordered. "We’re going to cut our hair, shave our beards and adhere to standards."

For those clinging to their "beardo" look, he suggested joining special forces or finding a new job.

His message to women in combat roles was blunt: meet the male standard or step aside.

"This is not about preventing women from serving," he said. "We very much value the impact of female troops. Our female officers and NCOs are the absolute best in the world. But when it comes to any job that requires physical power to perform in combat, those physical standards must be high and gender-neutral. If women can make it, excellent. If not, it is what it is."

For commanders who can’t stomach the shift, Hegseth’s invitation was clear: "Do the honorable thing and resign."

He’s reviewing terms like “toxic leadership” and “hazing” to empower leaders to enforce standards without fear.

Hegseth’s warrior ethos is a middle finger to the Biden-era lunacy that forced generals to parrot "diversity is our strength".
