First things first: I salute your service to my country, Steven. The military is a demanding career and few of us are up the challenge. Thank you, again, for your fine essay. π€
BLUF (bottom-line up-front): keep in mind that Mr Goldberg, the fake news hoax-meister, was the only one prudent with delicate national security information. π₯³
One thing I do wonder is why General Haugh (Chief Executive of the National Security Agency) and Lieutenant General Kruse (Defense Intelligence Agency), nor any active duty military (from what I can see), were in this chat that involved military planning and execution. I think we all have an intuition: these men would have shut down this chat immediately. π
UGGGGly, Steven. When, as a civilian, I went out into the red zone two or three times a week back in 2004-05, I sure am glad Hegseth was not the convoy leader. After the initial jollies of reading 'classified' info on the secure inter-net / e-mail, I stuck only to finding out rally-points and times. Those data should be secret and need-to-know. π€«
Had Hegseth been in charge, I may not be around to gnash my teethe; thank G-D our brave pilots were not killed over Yemen. And to think NitWitkoff was in Moscow. No military and a useful idiot in Moscow in the chat; hmmm, I wonder if Putrid was let in on all the fun. More sobering is the possibility that signal-chats about Ukraine took place. π€’
If itβs true JD was chastened by SM about countermanding the Feurerβ orders, you have to wonder when β the gang that couldnβt shoot straightβ, will shoot itself in the face.
And then thereβs the problem of collateral damage ! We may actually die laughing.

This is too unforgivable!
