Fake News?

When "sources say...." and when the Slimes is the lead story on this, then yeah.

Fake News.

I hope it is fake news, but Mattis did want to hire Anne Patterson, so his judgment is questionable.

I don’t care if he is appalled or not so long as he carries out orders from President Trump.

Probably true with a good bit of Slimes hyperbole thrown in. However, perhaps there’s a reason Mattis was known as the Warrior Monk.

Maybe somebody said they were “called” and New York times reports somebody said they were “appalled.”

Sources close to the Defense secretary told the Times that Mattis was infuriated by the tweets, and saw them as an insult to transgender Americans currently serving in the military.

If this is not Fake News then Mattis should resign and good riddance.

Most likely. Mattis is not shy about speaking his mind.

He was ordered to be appalled. Carried out nicely.

...2,000 to 11,000 active-duty service members identify as transgender.

This is very hard to believe. Fake statistic?

Somehow I just can’t see Mattis being “appalled” at something that improves the military services.

What did they used to say in the Army? Oh, yeah! “You don’t have to like it, you just gotta do it.”

So rancid John McCain appears again. Usually, even the most detestable of evil creatures has some redeeming quality somewhere. McCain has none. May the cancer do its work swiftly. In this case, it is a good work.
