A self-proclaimed psychic known as the "Living Nostradamus" is warning of a dramatic upheaval within the U.S. military following a massive gathering of top generals this week. His predictions come after U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth convened approximately 800 senior officers at the Quantico military base, an event where he explicitly told them to “prepare for war.”
The "Living Nostradamus" is Athos Salomé, a 39-year-old from Brazil who has gained online notoriety for his past predictions. Salomé told Daily Mail US that the high-level meeting was far from routine. He described it as a "test of loyalty" and warned that "those who resist may fall." He forecasts a "mass purge" inside the Pentagon, which he claims will involve "forced retirements, silent dismissals, and strategic replacements" to align the military's leadership with the new administration's vision.
The event at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia featured both Secretary Hegseth and President Donald Trump. Hegseth delivered a speech that marked a sharp philosophical shift for the armed forces. He announced a return to tougher, gender-neutral fitness standards, stating there would be “no more DEI, dudes in dresses, or gender delusion.” He argued that military training would become “scary, tough, and disciplined” again, claiming the forces had been weakened by “wokeness.”
According to Salomé's interpretation, this internal shake-up is linked to a major shift in U.S. foreign policy. He predicts the nation will move toward a “continental fortress” strategy. This would include the United States withdrawing from international initiatives in areas such as the Middle East, Europe, and Asia and concentrating its military efforts on Western Hemisphere and domestic defense. He contends that such a move would fundamentally change America's position in the international arena.
The "Living Nostradamus" has warned that the meeting's aggressive tone and implied internal purge could have far-reaching consequences. He thinks it would cause confusion among foreign partners and widen rifts inside the American military. He believes such moves might split the U.S. armed forces and confuse international partners. Allies could worry about America backing out of global roles, and rivals might view it as weakness or growing isolation.

Salomé suggests that the coming months will reveal the full extent of this transformation. He anticipates “discreet purges” and the establishment of new command structures loyal to the current administration. The release of an updated National Defense Strategy, which he believes will be intended to strengthen Trump and Hegseth's hold on the whole military institution and cement the reforms proposed at Quantico, will be a crucial sign.
