Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is turning his focus to a new issue: purging the "woke" from U.S. war colleges.

According to Fox News, Hegseth, who styles himself "Secretary of War" due to Trump's nonbinding executive order changing the department's name, "has announced a task force to evaluate senior service colleges to ensure they are not tainted by woke ideology and offer quality education."

In a post to X, Hegseth proclaimed, "Professional Military Education should produce warfighters and leaders — not wokesters. That’s why we are establishing a Task Force to evaluate our Senior Service Colleges and ensure the focus is where it belongs. No distractions. Just warfighting."

Hegseth's move, depending on how far-reaching it is, could reduce the potential pool of officer corps coming through the Army War College, National Defense University, Naval War College, Marine Corps University, and Air War College at a moment when the Trump administration is gearing up for a war in Iran of indeterminate timeline.

This also comes as Hegseth came under fire this week for suggesting in a press conference that "no quarter" will be given to Iranian combatants, which if meant literally would constitute a war crime to even say.

The announcement by America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), which includes CVS Health’s Aetna, Humana, Cigna, Centene and an array of Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans as members, comes ahead of the first meeting of the reconstituted Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which now has new members chosen by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine critic. “Health plans are committed to maintaining and ensuring affordable access to vaccines,” AHIP said in a statement Wednesday. “Health plan coverage decisions for immunizations are grounded in each plan’s ongoing, rigorous review of scientific and clinical evidence, and continual evaluation of multiple sources of data.” The move by AHIP is good news for millions of Americans at a time of year when they flock to drugstores, pharmacies, physician’s offices and outpatient clinics to get their seasonal flu and Covid shots. Kennedy’s changes to U.S. vaccine policy have created confusion across the country over whether certain vaccines long covered by insurance would continue to be. AHIP has now provided some clarity for millions of Americans. “Health plans will continue to cover all ACIP-recommended immunizations that were recommended as of September 1, 2025, including updated formulations of the COVID-19 and influenza vaccines, with no cost-sharing…
