That way they can say they "presented the information".

That's ok there is definitely one missile system that does need to be available to his highness, nor to BiBi.

... surrounded himself with liars, so why should he expect them to tell him the truth about anything?

at a time when WaPo, NYT, LA Times, etc. have been far too meek, The Atlantic has been breaking big stories constantly about this corrupt regime.

JD Fucking Vance would know better than anyone else you can't tell Trump anything he doesn't want to hear.......why does he think Trump picks people as unqualified as - well, Kegseth and Vance

so as not to upset the current WH power structure.

Vance would have filtered it down more, right down to . . . all going to plan!

All to protect the walls from ketchup stains, of course.

edited- in the atlantic article it says hegseth has presidential aspirations..........................................................................

And putting distance between him and Trump on the disastrous Iran war is to his advantage.

Hegseth, on the other hand, is loving the war like it's the latest first-person-shooter video game.

two minute blow jobs. . oooops,, two minute, highly edited, action videos.

Hegseth is an easy target. He is stupid, arrogant, and appears to revel in his power as Secretary of Defense, while at the same time having no clue as to how run the military.
He's also universally disliked.

Exactly.

It's not like Trump lives in the same reality as the rest of us anyway.
