So What Is This ‘Come to Pete’ Meeting, Exactly?
Posted By: Moritz55, 9/26/2025 9:28:38 PM
Some really big news in the American military community broke this week, as Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is convening an unprecedented meeting of his senior generals and admirals in Quantico, Virginia, on Tuesday, September 30th. As the proprietor of a somewhat prolific X account that largely focuses on military matters, many people have been asking me what I think this meeting is all about, as the meeting is currently shrouded in mystery. So what do I think?

A Trump administration official was physically assaulted by a "deranged leftist" inside the United Nations Thursday afternoon during the gathering of the UN General Assembly, Fox News Digital has learned. An official working in international relations for the Department of Health and Human Services was in New York City serving in a support role for HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the department’s leadership team at UNGA.
"An HHS official was followed into a bathroom, recorded, physically assaulted and verbally accosted by a deranged leftist at the UN who somehow entered the venue past multiple layers of security," White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly told Fox News Digital.

FOX News contributor and George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley analyzes the breaking news of the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey.
GILLIAN TURNER, FOX NEWS, 'SPECIAL REPORT' GUEST HOST: Ben told us a moment ago that he would not be surprised if this ultimately leads to a conviction for Comey. What are your thoughts?
JONATHAN TURLEY: Well, we really need to see what those underlying allegations are. One of the reasons that we've been focusing on his statement in 2020 about the league is because that's not a matter of interpretation.
The White House is telling federal agencies to prepare large-scale firings of workers if the government shuts down next week in a partisan fight over spending plans – prompting the Democrats to accuse Donald Trump of intimidation tactics.
In a memo released on Wednesday night, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) said agencies should consider a reduction in force for federal programs whose funding would lapse next week, is not otherwise funded and is “not consistent with the president’s priorities.” That would be a much more aggressive step than in previous shutdowns, when federal workers not deemed essential were furloughed but returned to their

Borussia Dortmund has reportedly placed social media restrictions on one of their players after he offered his thoughts and prayers to the murdered American MAGA political pundit, Charlie Kirk.
Kirk was assassinated on September 10 while he was speaking at an event at Utah Valley University. The killing has become a divisive moment in the already-tense American political landscape in the following days.
In the aftermath, Dortmund forward Felix Nmecha posted a pair of tributes to Kirk on his Instagram story.
FOX News contributor Jonathan Turley on Wednesday reacts to Google's letter to Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) acknowledging coordinating with the Biden administration to censor scientists and others who discussed the COVID pandemic on YouTube.
JON SCOTT, FOX NEWS: Professor, good morning to you. I know you've written about this when it comes to meta. Now you get a chance to write about this when it comes to YouTube and Google. Here's what I think. I mean, my sense is when it came to a national crisis and when it came to free speech, we failed.
JONATHAN TURLEY: We most certainly did, Bill.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris has been under fire from all sides since she released her book on her 2024 run for president.
But few have knocked her to the mat faster than former Tennessee Democratic Rep. Harold Ford Jr. did Tuesday night while appearing on Fox News’s Special Report hosted by Bret Baier. After a discussion about Harris’s new book, 107 Days, Baier asked Ford if he believed she was planning to run for president again in 2028. Ford deadpanned, “It doesn’t matter.”
Common wisdom holds that Democrats are likely to retake the House in next year’s midterms. Perhaps — that’s what history would suggest.
But a recent poll shows that Republicans retain relative strength on important core issues.
CNN’s Harry Enten summarized those data well in a recent appearance: Looking at the Washington Post/IPSOS poll, Enten found that Republicans retained a lead over Democrats on which party voters trust more to handle the economy, crime and immigration.
Four days after her husband, Charlie Kirk, was shot and killed at a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University, Erika had to explain to their 3-year-old daughter why her father wasn’t coming home. “What do you tell a 3-year-old?” Erika Kirk said in her first public address after the assassination. “I said, ‘Baby, daddy loves you so much. Don’t you worry. He’s on a work trip with Jesus so he can afford your blueberry budget.'”
Eight days after Kirk’s death, the board of Turning Point USA unanimously elected Erika, 36, to be its next CEO and chair, to help lead the organization her late husband co-founded
Something big is happening with America’s young people. It has been building for the past two years. It centers on faith, purpose, and a renewal toward more traditional American values. This new American youth counterculture movement looks very different from the one that burst onto the scene in the 1960s.
Sixty years ago, the youth movement on college campuses set out to upend our culture’s status quo — the rebellion created a seismic cultural and political shift away from post World War II traditionalism.
President Trump wrapped up his speech at Charlie Kirk’s memorial by embracing Kirk’s widow Erika.
It was a moment of paternal tenderness after Trump vacillated between extolling Kirk as a “martyr for American freedom” and not so subtly suggesting he and his administration would avenge the murder.
In his 42 minutes of wide-ranging remarks, the president described Kirk, who mobilized the youth vote and is credited with helping deliver the electoral victory for Trump, as a “giver much more than a taker” and “master builder of people.”
If Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez plans to run for president in 2028, she’s just made the biggest mistake of her political career. That speech of hers will be written in ink, and it will haunt her for years to come. Why? Because she didn’t know the first thing about Charlie Kirk, and everyone who watched her give that speech knows she’s either ignorant or lying.
We know that on the Left, they do not believe in any kind of presumption of innocence when it comes to words. Words are harm. Words are violence. Most of all, words define who you are.

Delegates at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) stormed out Friday as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took the stage and prepared to speak. The mass exit came after delegates spent days speaking about the situation in Gaza and proposals to end the nearly two-year war.
Their response to Netanyahu was a stark contrast to the long round of applause that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas received when he addressed the international body virtually on Thursday.
Millions of dollars sent to Barack Obama’s foundation has ended up being donated to a progressive fund that supported anti-Israel groups, accused of setting up encampments at Ivy League universities, according to public documents.
Donations to The Obama Foundation, set up by the former president to build a 19-acre campus including a museum, athletic facility and fruit and vegetable gardens in Chicago, totalling $2 million were instead sent on to Tides Foundation in 2022 and 2023, according to their latest available federal tax filings.
The cash was earmarked to “support local organizations that are working to reduce violence in communities,” according to the nonprofit’s filings.
Another illegal alien who was given a commercial driver's license in California, a violation of federal laws and regulations, caused a major car crash.
"Dalilah Coleman’s life was forever changed when an illegal alien driving an 18-wheeler slammed into her and her family. The crash resulted in her inability to walk, talk, eat orally, or attend kindergarten as planned. She was in a coma for three weeks and required six months of hospital treatment before her family could bring her home. On June 20, 2024, Partap Singh—an illegal alien from India—caused a multi-car pileup while driving a commercial 18-wheeler in the Sanctuary State of California.
An Iowa school district superintendent living in the United States illegally who also faces weapons charges was arrested Friday, authorities said.
Ian Andre Roberts, who heads the Des Moines Public Schools—the largest school district in the state—was taken into custody on a fugitive warrant. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents pursued Roberts after he sped away, authorities said.
They later found his vehicle abandoned, and an Iowa State Patrol K-9 was called in to help search for him.
Kamala Harris has always had a curious relationship with words. She doesn’t so much use them to communicate as she does to string together phrases that sound like she’s desperately trying to prove how profound she is, but it just sounds like nonsensical garbage. Case in point: In her latest podcast appearance, she told a wild story that she obviously thought made her look good but was actually quite terrifying.
While promoting her new book, 107 Days, Harris sat down with the “House Guest” podcast to reminisce about her disastrous 2024 presidential campaign. Naturally, she wanted to highlight just how much the people allegedly adored her. But instead of
The legacy media is bleeding out, so it’s worth taking another whack at them over this story. They tried to lie to us about undercover FBI agents on Capitol Grounds during the January 6 riot. How do we know? Oh, the bureau admitted it. With Trump as president again, and the credibility of this institution continuing to decay, it’s time to deliver the death blow. We were right—there were FBI assets on the ground. In fact, there were hundreds of agents among the crowd. We finally have a number: 275 (via The Blaze): [Tweet]

The FBI secretly deployed more than 250 plainclothes agents to the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, an operation so disorganized it unleashed searing frustrations among many of the FBI's rank-and-file that the bureau had lost its core competencies to "wokeness" and allowed its employees to become “pawns in a political war,” according to an after-action report kept from the public for more than four years.
James Comey’s son-in-law abruptly resigned from his gig as a federal prosecutor Thursday — just minutes after the ex-FBI director was indicted by a federal grand jury.
Troy Edwards Jr. quit his position as a senior national security prosecutor within the Eastern District of Virginia, which is the same office now prosecuting his father-in-law.
In a one-sentence resignation letter addressed to new US Attorney Lindsey Halligan, Edwards said he was leaving “to uphold my oath to the Constitution and the country.”
As you may have seen, someone fired a hail of bullets at a kids' baseball tournament in Katy, Texas, hitting a coach as he led his team in a pre-game prayer and sending children and their coaches scrambling for cover. The Operation Mockingbird media mudpuppies suggested the gunfire was "target practice" from about 600-700 yards away, or perhaps even just some hunters not being careful.
Watch this video and let me know if this sounds like hunters or distant target practice: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has charged two men for the fusillade of bullets they fired at dozens of kids and adults at the Rac baseball complex.

Amazon has agreed to pay $2.5 billion to settle FTC allegations that the company “tricked and trapped” consumers into signing up for Prime memberships and hindered their attempts to cancel the subscription. FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson said, “The Trump-Vance FTC is committed to fighting back when companies try to cheat ordinary Americans out of their hard-earned pay.”
CNBC reports that Amazon has reached a $2.5 billion settlement with the FTC over allegations that the company engaged in deceptive practices related to its Prime subscription program. The settlement, announced on Thursday, comes just three days into the trial between Amazon and the FTC in a Seattle federal court.
A kids' baseball coach was leading his team in a pre-game prayer when bullets flew across the Ameripark sports complex, locally known as The Rac, in Katy, Texas.
Players ran as the shots rang out. The team's coach took a bullet to the shoulder. He was evacuated to a hospital by helicopter.
"I have to legit bear crawl to my mom on my arms," Colton Bierman, 11, told a reporter for KPRC.
That's when things got wonky.
I first read NBC's version of this story, and I immediately smelled a sink badger in the perfume aisle.

The political panel on CNN’s The Arena was purely hinged Thursday afternoon, not only declaring “there’s no evidence” and “no basis” to state the Dallas, Texas Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) facility shooter was on the far left, but also blaming President Trump and the GOP for the rise in political violence....which would include the September 10 assassination of Charlie Kirk. In addition to being reckless and dangerous for failing to recognize the rise in political violence on their side (the left), the claims about the ICE attack motive came over a day after the initial press conference disclosing Wednesday’s attack was motivated by hate
