Outsted Pentagon Adviser says that Hegseth “consumes” by Lecks when Trump predicts that he will “bring it together”

A top Pentagon officer who was displaced in a dramatic cleansing at the beginning of this month criticized Defense Minister Pete Hegseth for the fact that he was employed by disclosure to the press – while President Trump stood in an interview published on Monday with the former personality of Fox News.

Colin Carroll, former chief of staff of the Deputy Minister of Defense Stephen Feinberg, replied: “To be honest, I don't know. I'm not sure” when Podcaster Megyn Kelly Hegseth asked “Do you think he is doing well?” During a long interview on Friday.

“He focused very much on the leaks and I think the team is a little consumed,” added Carroll. “If you look at a district diagram of the secretary day, it is probably 50% of it probably [the] Leak examination. “

“This is a bad thing for America, it is a bad thing for the goal of the president,” added 40 -year -old Carroll, who was on leave on April 16 and later released Selnick together with the senior consultant Dan Caldwell and the deputy chief of staff.

At about the same time, the former spokesman John Ullyot separated with Dod with Dod and wrote that a devastating politician who predicted that Hegseth predicted would soon no longer be in the works.

The White House has publicly stood by the Minister of Defense, and Trump told Atlantic Magazine: “I think he will bring it together. I had a conversation with him, a positive conversation, but I had a conversation with him.”

“I have observed a pete that…. Crushes IT in meetings,” Carroll Told Kelly of Hegseth's Ability, Before Adding that at other Times He would Become fixated on “Weird Details” and Easily “Agitated,”

“It is a story of two petes,” added Carroll and added later: “My observation from the first 90 days, and it will sound strange that we had less a problem of deep state Bureacrats in the department than maybe some people in our own team.”

Last week, a source trusted with the situation informed the contribution that the shots by Caldwell, Carroll and Selnick were the result of a “lawn war”, which was led by Joe Kasper, Hegseth's chief of staff, who was also transferred from his role, and later decided to leave the Pentagon for the private sector.

At the time of the time, the source informed the post that Caldwell and Selnick had received more from Kaspers Portfolio, including “recommendations on appointments, decisions about official visits on a high level and official travel planning-a large part of what was a priority for this week.”

“[Kasper] Wasn't an effective manager and balls dropped, decisions were not made, etc., “added the source.” He is a nice guy, but a poor manager. “

“Joe is a differentiated person because he is not like a complete idiot,” said Carroll to Kelly von Kasper, who accused Carroll and Caldwell last week to create a general investigation by the general inspector against him.

Kasper told Drop Site News that there was an anonymous complaint in which he was accused of illegal drug use, which he denied. In Kasper's knowledge, Carroll had been contacted by Politico Reporter Daniel Lippman to ask about the rumored Watchdog probe. According to Outlet, Caldwell Carroll asked to pass on the investigation to the Chef -Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell.

When Carroll was asked about the controversy, he said to Kelly that “I … know what drug users look like and how they act. I can say that Joe was super unpredictable and that he would be completely normal and then completely not normal.”

Carroll added that he wished that the Pentagon carried out a more thorough examination of LECKS, similar to the director of the National Intelligence Tulsi Gabard's team, which led to two criminal transfers to the Ministry of Justice, a third expected.

“I think there are leaks,” he admitted. “I think if there is a way that is relieved, we should have been examined in administrative leave and. I would have felt totally comfortable with it.”

“We are not angrily former employees,” emphasized Carroll. “I am just one person who literally built my whole life to return to the department [after leaving in 2021]. “”

Hegseth said “Fox & Friends” last week that the Pentagon would submit transfers to law enforcement after completing the leak examination. Carroll called this interview a “bad step”, which indicates that Hegseth was unprepared and that the SIT-Down agreed to only appear “combative” for the president.

When asked whether he would return to the Pentagon, Carroll said that the department is suffering from a “culture of fear and toxicity that can really relax” and that Trump's agenda endangers, including the structure of a “golden dome” rocket defense system.

“The idea that there was a functional disorder is an argument of convenience that is subsequently armed by a small group that summarizes against the president and the secretary in their own interests,” said Kasper in an explanation, which was read by Kelly, which listed the success of Trump's term of the term.

“This is not a dysfunction, that's success,” added Kasper. “Colin was not part of it. I wish him all the best. He is a clever guy with unlimited potential.”
