Send all the Generals at the Pentagon to clean up the mess.
Mary Tzu and the Modern Art of Politicking?
They care more about woke politics. The Dems are very good at placing fellow travelers throughout the government.
Lloyd Austin actually said that no one expected the Taliban to advance so fast. Not a single general at the Pentagon or other war planner even suggested the possibility.
We deserve what is going to hit us.
Milley should resign, the fast way.
they DEMANDED the military take the CCP Bioweapon
showing they are either STUPID or TREASONOUS
while wearing their pink pussy hats,
parading their multicolored flags (not of this Republic)
and castigating GEOTUS.
Right after Pearl Harbor FDR got rid of Gen. Short and Adm. Kimmel. Both men were also reduced in rank.
How much responsibility for the attack did those two really have? It didn’t matter. A message had to be sent. Screw up, and you’re gone. Those days are over. Nobody is held accountable for anything anymore.
Of course they didn’t.
Their careers are not tied to victory, and that is all they care about, their ‘careers.’
This is what happens when vile, incompetent, political pole climbers claw their way to the top in the military. You get woke politicians, not seasoned warriors commanding young brave soldiers, sailors and Marines who they send into harm’s way. The country must be rid of them and these people must be held accountable for their malfeance.
A point of correction - this is the mythology of Pershing. American’s probably would have done well to fight in concert with the experienced Brits and French. Pershing’s basic strategy was ‘mindless attack’, which ALL the other combatants had wisely ceased.
By the second week of the Meuse-Argonne campaign, raw replacement troops, who had never even loaded or fired a rifle, were being sent to front line units.
The German army was a hard shell with little backing it up, supported by a starving populace. Tens of thousands of American deaths and innumerable casualties could have been avoided with a more thoughtful approach.
By contrast, the Failure Generals in Iraq and Afghanistan such as David Petraeus, Jim Mattis, Stanley McChrystal, and Mark Milley .. have consistently failed ... fretting about “white rage” in the ranks.
No matter how much Hunter screams about having to return money to China, Biden needs to fire the traitors... no one makes this many stupid 'errors' by accident. Investigate the corrupt, stupid and possible commie 'generals'...
A general officer is actually a vp of operations or division supervisor in the real world. They spend a percentage of time managing the operation and a percentage schmoozing with clients. Killing people is rarely on their to do list.
Our generals mastered the art of promotion and not the art of war.
“In World War I, the American Commander “Black Jack” Pershing ignored British and French insistence that his men serve in a supporting role. “
They wanted then to be used as replacements piecemeal to serve under they abysmal British and French generals.
Many years ago I worked at the Pentagon in Communications.
Way too many self important “generals” even then.
Worthless lot and I am sure there are more of the stoopids now.
“During the Civil War, Lincoln cycled through general after general until he found Ulysses S. Grant, who frequently rejected his commander in chief’s tactical suggestions, for which Lincoln was ultimately grateful.”

Huge difference though...Lincoln wanted people who WOULD fight. All of the administrations from Bush jr. forward were more concerned with policing than a ruthless subjugation of the Taliban.
For the record I did not (nor do) support a nation building project in Afghanistan, but it should have been used temporarily as a platform to kill Bin-Laden and nothing else. We spent 20 years there because we thought we could put it on the path to becoming post-war Germany or Japan....utter foolishness.
They are all woke, all the time. Men without chests.
Most people operating in bureaucracies will do what they have to
do to KEEP their jobs, not necessarily properly DO their jobs.
It’s not that they don’t care it’s that they don’t know how!
