Meanwhile the MSM is distracting from it likely having been a Pentagon sanctioned/tolerating EMP weapon dry run.

It’s the Navy pilots they should be paying attention to. Talk about unauthorized flyovers!! Why don’t they ask Mathis about these?

The facts do not matter. They now have a narrative that is being repeated. Like Obama’s ‘Blame Bush’. It’s now Biden’s “Blame Trump”.
So much for putting the Adults in the WH.

“General” Mattis.

A Marine I know said it was fine that Mattis did what no one had ever done - criticized potus for whom he ran DoD. That was because he was retired not a general

The marine said screw Trump

That’s what Mattis did. He still goes by “general”

What is more slimy than that kind of lying passive aggression?

I see what he did to the marines at least one. Who has many friends

Now rumors are flying. He has no treachery friends on whom to depend?
They’re turning on him?

Someone is lying. My guess is it’s Mattis, who knows withholding intel from the CinC is called treason.

Get the Chinese loving Chief of Staff General Milley under oath and ask him some pointed questions. If the Chinese did float balloons into American airspace prior to this and they were detected, then why wasn’t the duly elected civilian government informed?

Somebody is lying.

Another story says that Mattis knew about these balloons but didn’t tell Trump.

Which one is the truth?

I don’t think Mattis is lying. As a Marine, he would not lie about something like this. JMHO.

“Took him long enough!”

I think he just realized they were throwing him under the bus.

1. Trump says he did not know.

2. Mattis says he did not know.

3. Others say Mattis did know.

4. I’d say Mattis is lying.............

Mattis did call China following the 2020 election to re-assure the commies he would not let his CinC do anything “rash”.

Not my dad’s kind of marine.
