According to a report from The Record, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has issued a major policy change by ordering U.S. Cyber Command to end all plotting against Russia, including offensive cyberattacks. Following events like election meddling and cyberattacks, the U.S. has changed its stance for a decade to one that views Russia as a significant security risk. This directive does not change the National Security Agency’s intelligence-gathering efforts.  ,

Hillary Clinton, who linked to a Gizmodo content on the document and used irony to attack Putin, was one of those who had to make a comment.
Hegseth responded with a stunning fire of Hillary.

The image is from Hillary Clinton’s tragic “reset” publicity stunt when she was Barack Obama’s secretary of state. She boldly presented Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov with a beautiful red button on March 6, 2009, in Geneva, as a sign of a rumored new beginning between Russia and the US. Of course, her crack diplomatic squad botched even this simple task, mistranslating the intended “reset” ( перезагрузка, perezagruzka ) as “overload” ( перегрузка, peregruzka ).  ,
Also better, the box itself appeared to be strikingly similar to the emergency-stop buttons on industrial machine. Unintentionally symbiotic symbols of conflict and overuse in politics? Sounds about right. One of the” Easy” buttons from Staples would have been better for them. Clinton and Lavrov made a hilarious attempt to simultaneously press this symbolic disaster switch, sealing their political fall in history.  ,

Of course, this reveals a bunch about how hypocritical the Democrats are about the Trump administration’s efforts to boost relations with Russia.  ,
Did Democrats Abuse Zelenskyy’s Meeting With Trump Before It Even Begun?
Why did Obama and Hillary Clinton have a right to cozy up to Russia, but now it’s ridiculous when Trump tries to improve political relations? Obama’s work were praised by the Democrats as a means of easing relations with Putin. However, the remaining erupted in tears and cried” collaboration” when Trump dared to attempt real politics! ( And I’m certain there’s a” constitutional crisis” in it as well ).  ,
The obvious explanation is that Russia has risen to prominence as the public’s preferred supervillain following the 2016 election. The same people who were eager to cozy up to Putin were now persuaded that establishing good relations with another planet superpower was equivalent to treason.
Funny how guidelines vanish when Trump enters the Oval Office. Democrats ‘ false anger is exposed by this clear double common: cheap, cynical political theater. Their obsession with Russia is not about preserving democracy or national security; it is about using paranoia to stifle political gains and sabotage conventional policies. Where were these “patriots” when Obama whispered sweet nothings into Putin’s ears if Democrats really believed their own Russia language? The careful moral anger is quite disgusting, not simply ridiculous. And that’s what gives Hegseth’s article for an incredible burn.
