As en executive engineer I was not allowed to fly on the same plane with colleagues. Because it IS plain stupid for any organization to put your eggs, or goose, in the same basket.

....and call in a military strike? Wipe them all out in one fell swoop. Really brilliant military maneuver, if that is his plan.

But, more like, it is just a PR stunt and huge waste of money. He is good at that.

after spending a day listening to Trump and Hegseth.

Most will surely recognize the dangerous incompetence and perversion of our national defense leaders.

Will they stand up for their oath of office and their country, or will they go along to get along?
