Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.

If you don’t think for one second that our adversaries are considering that our country is being distracted so much that they don’t think they could possibly start trying to get away with things in their military. You should think twice. I can’t imagine what Taiwan is thinking right now. REPOST

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

General Brown is a brilliant, amazing leader. I worked at the Air Staff for three years and it was known that he read everything the staff wrote for him. He believes if an analyst took the time to write it, it’s his responsibility to read it. Very few generals do this.

"Not our war, not our problem." We made it our problem in 1994. Ukraine had the world’s 3rd-largest nuclear arsenal, & we told them: Give it up, & we’ll guarantee your security. They trusted us. Russia started this war, now we are expecting them to pay with their natural resources and ditching them

The US has a long history of backing allies only to withdraw support when convenient. We have multiple examples: Vietnam, the Kurds in Iraq & Syria, Cuba, Nicaragua, Afghanistan, & now possibly Ukraine. This pattern weakens trust and damages the credibility of the US worldwide, leaving chaos behind
