Mr Deare was mid management, he is supposed to implement presidential policy, not make it or even be publicly critical of it. He should have voiced his concerns with the council then went about implementing the policy. If he still had reservations, then he should have resigned.

I keep telling you guys, Trump is going to run the executive branch like a business, not like a political bureaucracy. He will keep firing people until he finds ones that will do the work and not play politics.

So we can expect the US to file for bankruptcy to the IMF in a year or two then?

Would you prefer we just print more money?

Well, it'd be nice if when you did fall over you didn't take the entire world down with you.

OTOH, he is a Russia Hawk who has been pushing for an increase in the Army's budget to counter the Russian threat:

Honestly, how many Army Generals don't push for more funding for the Army. It's kinda what they do.

We have way too many generals. These are the numbers on active duty in the four services at the moment:

0-7 Brigadier General / Rear Admiral (LH) 444
0-8 Major General / Rear Admiral (UH) 285
0-9 Lieutenant / General Vice Admiral 132
0-10 General / Admiral 39

Border Patrol is hiring! Watched a TV commercial last night advertising the government is looking for a few thousand good men.

I stayed in Spanga and Kista during my stay in Sweden. Was nothing out of sorts as far as I could see last summer. There were a lot of non-Swedes living in that area for sure. It felt like I was living in Baghdad.

Christ! You all lost me!!
What the hell does Sweden have to do with US Politics?

Did Trump take a poop there or what?
