“We saw record recruitment in 2025, Mr. President,” Hegseth said in entrance of the press. “The first two weeks of [Fiscal Year] 2026 [which starts in October] already blows that out …[FY 2026] already blows it out the water.”

“In fact, reenlistment has already reached its year-long goal, in the Marine Corps, in 2026,” he added, to which Trump responded, “record stuff.”

“There’s no other way to create that kind of love and enthusiasm than with your leadership, sir,” Hegseth continued. 

The secretary made it clear there’s one cause for all this curiosity in the navy, and it is because of Trump. And it is just more proof of how improper the left is about what Americans need. It’s concrete numbers exhibiting that they’re all in for adjustments being made by Hegseth and President Trump’s administration.

The Secretary of War has instituted quite a few adjustments, which embrace getting rid of Pride crap and DEI, after he beforehand defended Trump’s wise Defense Department coverage, which was based on President Trump’s Executive Order 14183 (Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness – The White House).  The coverage ordered that the navy can no longer recruit transgenders and that transgenders usually are not eligible for retention in the navy, RedState reported

Those adjustments have also included returning to issues that make the navy great, like lifting a ban on highly effective basic training techniques, setting a directive that generals need to be match and disciplined, and even cracking down on shabby navy barracks.

As my RedState colleague Becky Noble reported, Hegseth lately announced “the formation of a new task force within the next 30 days to address the long-standing, deplorable living conditions at barracks across all branches of the military in the country.”

Noble wrote:

As with most issues, the [former President Joe] Biden administration failed to deal with the unacceptable situations that have been discovered and documented in a 2023 Government Accountability Office (GAO) report that revealed subpar dwelling situations at the barracks. During the announcement, Hegseth said, “Every warfighter of our joint force deserves housing that is clean, comfortable, and safe.”

Once again, Trump and Hegseth have assist from Americans for what they’re doing to Make America Great Again.
