US President Trump said at a rare meeting with senior military officials on Tuesday that the United States is facing an "internal war" and proposed using American cities as training grounds for US military forces.
On Tuesday (September 30th), US Secretary of War Hercules summoned about 800 senior US generals stationed worldwide to the Marine Corps base in Quantico, Virginia. There were many speculations from the outside world about this rare rally, questioning whether there was a major announcement, but Trump ultimately only delivered a stern political speech.
Trump said, "I told Pete that we should use these (Democratic controlled) dangerous cities as military training grounds. Places like San Francisco, Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles are extremely unsafe, and we will address them one by one. This will be an important task for some of you here. This is also a war, a war from within
Since taking office at the end of January, the Trump administration has made combating crime and immigration an important priority. He has dispatched troops to Los Angeles and Washington D.C., and also ordered the deployment of troops to Memphis, Tennessee and Portland, Oregon, calling these cities "war zones" and indicating that Chicago is the next target. These cities are all dominated by the Democratic Party.
On September 27th, Trump ordered the military to enter Portland on his social media platform Truth Social to suppress domestic terrorists who oppose his immigration policies, and instructed Heggese to provide all necessary troops to protect "war-torn" Portland, as well as any Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities besieged by the far left radical anti fascist movement (Antifa) and other domestic terrorists.
During his 72 minute speech, Trump emphasized issues such as border security and eradicating the "culture of awakening," and hinted at significant reforms to the defense procurement process and foreign arms sales. He also emphasized that he is "exploring the muscles of America" and claimed that the United States has the "strongest military in the world".
He also made a statement of "resign if you can't stand it", jokingly saying, "If you don't agree with my views, you can leave. Of course, this way, your military rank will be lost and your future will be cut off, but you will feel at ease, right? Because we are partners in the same trench

Heggese subsequently delivered a 45 minute speech, condemning the phenomenon of "fat generals" and diversification measures, declaring an end to "ideological garbage". The ignorant and reckless political leaders misled us and led us astray. We have become the 'Awakening Department', but all of this will come to an end
Heggese paced back and forth on stage while speaking. He announced that all physical fitness tests in the military will only use male standards and emphasized the importance of paying attention to appearance standards. He also made similar remarks to Trump, urging military officers who do not agree with his views to "resign with dignity".

Since taking office, Heggese has dismissed several senior military officers. He said, "It is almost impossible to change a culture while retaining those who have been involved in shaping and even benefited from it
The US military should maintain political neutrality, and Democrats widely condemned Tuesday's rally, accusing it of attempting to infiltrate partisan politics into the military system. Some critics also argue that mobilizing hundreds of senior generals from US military bases around the world not only incurs high costs, but also poses operational security risks.
