Poorly written article. I had no idea what the journalist meant that Franchette would "lead the Navy."
I assumed it meant that she would be the new Secretary of the Navy.
I had to look far down to see that her new title is Chief of Naval Operations.
Her new title should have been in the first paragraph.
Also, it would have been nice it the journalist had explained what these respective titles entail. Such as, why isn't the Secretary of the Navy considered the one who "leads the Navy."

Is this a biological female or is it a mentally ill trans man? Perhaps only an ordinary lesbian?

Tactically smart enough to rise to the top of leftist scum as head of the Queen’s Navy.

When Congress refused his advance to Admiral—he joined the Russian Navy—they made him an Admiral and he fought Turks in the Black Sea. He received a medal from Catherine the great. Heck, Putin could name a Russian ship after him. Tear down his statues! Take his name off the monuments—HE WAS A RUSSIAN!

Supporter of the rainbow flag group I assume. Is she a woman, a female, an it, a what the hell is she/he/it/them/those/was, a man, a half and half, what the heck is she??? You need a danged book these days to figure this crap out.

A JOURNALISM major is now HEAD of the U.S. Navy, the most powerful force on the high seas!!! That is an appointment thanking the MSM for the success of the commies.

“Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin recommended that Biden select Adm. Samuel Paparo, the current commander of the Navy’s Pacific Fleet, several U.S. officials said last month. But instead, Biden is nominating Paparo to lead U.S. Indo-Pacific Command.”

She might actually be qualified, though I remain skeptical. This is a Biden pick.

“throughout her career, Admiral Franchetti has demonstrated extensive expertise in both the operational and policy arenas.”
Translation - a good little rabid Democrat soldier.
BTW, not the first female Joint Staff Officer - that distinction belongs to Ms General Milley. :0)
