Mattis was fired just as Barr was fired. But they were allowed to save face by saying they resigned.
That's a laugh.......these jokers are worried about endangering the military?
Some of them prostrated themselves.....kneeling in obeisance to the agenda-driven SOB neocons.
They took the US military (and taxpayers) into useless, trillion dollar wars....... for little or no reason...
except that the war profiteering was so huge, n/c godfather Richard Pele started his own billion dollar oil company.

This always rankled me......the (cough) "military training" of the Middle East doofuses lasted five years ...or more.
In the US, we take them off the farm, put 'em in boot camp, and in a couple months they're ready to fight.
The (gag) Secrtaries of Defense never figured out the endless Mideast training was a ruse to bilk the US taxpayer.
Secretaries of Defense my Aunt Tilly.......a bunch of useless jerks.
