@akevittnvg Yes, but rather dated. Last time I heard it was the 1970's.

@hashjenni During wars is exactly when generals get fired.

You don't fire generals in the middle of war unless you're planning to do something they do not agree with.

@GovTimWalz But can any of them read and write?

Good news in Minnesota today - our graduation rates just reached another record high! inforum.com/news/minnesota…

@leftcoastbabe You honestly have no idea what 'rules of engagement' even are, do you?

Pete Hegseth repeatedly mocks "rules of engagement." But now that a US pilot is missing and possibly capture, a reminder, rules of engagement don't just protect people we go to war against, they also protect OUR troops.

@Sraev1Vaught @jbendery Protestant and Catholics have always had separate services conducted by Chaplains of the their faith.

@jbendery Wait, I’m a Christian and a Protestant, I thought Catholics were Christians. So Catholics can’t attend a Christian service? Wow, that’s crazy. Are you guys not allowed to worship Jesus Christ FREELY? Mind BLOWN…

NEW: The Pentagon today invited more than 3,500 employees to attend a Good Friday service at its in-house chapel. Except it’s only for Protestants, not Catholics. huffpost.com/entry/news-liv…

@jbendery That's correct. Protestant and Catholic services are conducted separately by Chaplains of the different faiths. Always have been. Oh, and Catholics don't have Mass on Good Friday; never have.

@xnoesbueno And they were actual combatant commanders, not staff.

Who wants to tell The Atlantic how many generals Lincoln went through?

@TheRealJamesFB @Papote_T @awstar11 No. He was hired because he wrote a book on how to get the military focused back on its core mission: fighting and winning wars.

@Papote_T @awstar11 Be serious. He wasn't appointed to SecDef because he went to "woke" Princeton and had a middling career in the Minnesota Army National Guard, it was because Trump saw him on cable news.

So, he was not following orders from his chain of command

@NathanJRobinson Why would the Israelis need to fire missiles at Gaza? Are you admitting Gaza is attacking Israel?

one important question for anyone who supports "defensive" military aid to Israel such as the Iron Dome is: do you support defensive military aid for Palestine? Will you fund a Golden Dome for Gaza to protect its civilians from Israeli missiles? And if not, why not?

@jbendery Catholics don't have Mass on Good Friday.

@kimmie_c_ 2, it's a Strike Eagle.

How many crew members were there? 1 or 2?

@RadioFreeTom Not in the chain of command.

Firing the Army chief of staff in the middle of a war is always a sign that things are going great

@BBCr4today What nonsense! All of them can be legal targets if being used in a manner that aids enemy military operations.

"You don't hit schools, you don't hit energy sources, you don't hit bridges: those are war crimes." UN humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher criticises actions in the Iran war and says leaders have chosen 'game show gambling' over humanity by hitting civilian infrastructure.

@shanaka86 Service Chiefs of Staff are not in the chain of command.

JUST IN: You do not fire your Army Chief of Staff in the middle of a war for no reason. You fire him because of what comes next. Pete Hegseth called General Randy George on April 2 and told him to retire immediately. The Pentagon confirmed it within hours. No reason was given. Not publicly. Not privately. A senior Army official told Fox News that Hegseth offered George nothing: no misconduct, no operational failure, no policy disagreement on the record. Just a phone call and a career ending in the middle of the most significant American combat operation in two decades. George is the 24th general or admiral Hegseth has removed. But he is not the 24th. He is the one that matters. The Army Chief of Staff. The man whose signature sits between a president’s intent and the order that sends soldiers across a beach or into a tunnel complex. The 82nd Airborne is deploying right now. Marines from the 31st MEU are staged on the USS Tripoli. JSOC operators are at forward bases in Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Kharg Island, 90 percent of Iranian oil exports, sits 16 kilometres off a coast that someone will have to decide whether to approach. And the four-star general whose job it was to advise whether that approach should happen was removed 48 hours after Trump told the nation the war would continue for two to three more weeks. The replacement is Vice Chief General Christopher LaNeve. He was Hegseth’s senior military aide before this appointment. The man who carried the Secretary’s briefcase now commands the Army the Secretary is reshaping. The chain of command did not break. It shortened. The distance between a television studio and a combat order just collapsed to zero intermediaries who were not personally selected by the man giving the order. No reason was given. That is the tell. When someone is removed without explanation during a crisis, the explanation is the crisis itself. George either objected to something or was about to. The ground option. The power plant strikes. The Kharg raid. The escalation that turned a highway bridge in Karaj into rubble on the same day he was told to leave. Something in the next two weeks requires a chief who will not push back, and the Pentagon solved that problem by installing one trained as Hegseth’s aide. A former Fox News weekend host just fired a four-star general with combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, replaced him with his own former assistant, and did it during a live war in which the next decision could put American soldiers on Iranian soil for the first time in history. No hearing was held. No misconduct cited. The Army woke up on April 3 with a new chief it did not choose, in a war it did not start, preparing for a phase the previous chief apparently could not be trusted to execute. The question is not why George was fired. Every general in the building knows why. The question is what order is coming in the next fourteen days that required removing the one man in the chain of command who might have said no. The war has no perimeter. The chain of command has no objectors. And the next phase has no one left to stop it. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@Orlando71156528 Those appear to be C-17's doing an aid drop in Gaza a few years back.

Mientras EEUU 🇺🇸 lanza misiles en Irán 🇮🇷, para acribillar escolares indefensas, China 🇨🇳 llega con ayuda ⛑️ humanitaria para el pueblo de Irán 🇮🇷. Esa es la gran diferencia.

@godblesstoto @ElfwickDraws He still flips out on certain topics and starts shouting at clouds (T***p)

@ElfwickDraws He was based originally. Then went mental for a bit. Then returned to sanity.

Look, if even John Cleese can become based and redpilled then there’s hope for everyone.

@RKelanic Used to transport missile components to firing batteries.

What could possibly be the military rationale for this. There isn’t one.

@piersmorgan You always are.

I’m confused. President Trump says the war is 2/3 weeks from being over and the main goal of preventing Iran from developing a nuke has been achieved. Yet they still have all their enriched uranium? 🤔

@Sargon_of_Akkad The US did neither of these things

America blew up the Nordstream pipeline, and now has closed the Strait of Hormuz. Hard not to see this as a deliberate strategy of denying energy to Europe, whilst America can produce its own. Callous.

@TheFungi669 Maybe, just maybe, they don't, and they just have a problem with illegal immigrants?

I don’t understand why Trump and JD Vance hate immigrants when they’re both married to immigrants.
