Yikes. Who is piloting this ship? Hopefully, Matiss isn’t falling into the same trap Petraeus did.
“I didn’t go through an electoral season of being denigrated and threatened with purging for supporting Trump to sit back and watch him appoint Obama’s Handmaidens into very senior positions.
Trump promised to drain the swamp, not jam it full of all of Obama’s alligators.” — Ace of Spades blog
Because Mattis is great on a tactical level, and he’s nothing special on the strategic policy level.
For example, he supports overthrowing Assad, a Palestinian state, and other undesired things. That’s why he has no problem with her.
His talk misleads many.
Yikes is right. This is really disturbing, to say the least.
Who thinks we need more chicks at the Pentagon—which, last I looked, is supposed to be devoted to war-fighting?
Because she’s female and Mattis, like all of Trump’s generals, is more Establishment than we want to admit.
Please tell me the good news about him.
Yep.
Likewise you should hear Gen. Kelly gush about his good friend and predecessor Jeh Johnson.
Hmmm.
5.56mm
“Mad” Dog Mattis is starting to sound like a chump for the Deep State.
WTH
This is a disheartening revelation to say the least.
You know, this administration is starting to PISS ME OFF. Me thinks they are damming up the swamp, not draining it.
Loaded article, biased question for the poll but she should be shown the door.
It was a disgrace the US government tried to stop the liberation of Egypt by its own people for the Islamic Brotherhood.
Whatever idiot wrote that probably thinks as a BLOGGER he’s smarter than and privy to more information than Potus Trump and General Mattis combined.
Totally SICK. Where is Trump?
Doh! That’s Totally Sick too.
I remember her role in the Egyptian tragedy. She has no place in a government I voted for. Sickening. And Mattis isn’t stupid kids. He knows who she is. Draw you’re conclusions.
Forget the tough talk, look at things like this. Look at haditha.
I remember the turmoil in Egypt and Anne Patterson’s very active roll in backing the Islamists. She left Egypt not too long after the Military took over and was practically persona non grata. She was reviled by the non Muslim Brotherhood demonstrators and would likely have been expelled by the Military if she had stayed IMO. This is a really bad choice and seems to show the power the Muslim Brotherhood still has in the US government.
