I don't believe I've heard this topic raised regarding yesterday's

fiasco with Signal and the unfortunate messages.

I mean the secretive military planning, period. This time, the target was the Houthis.

What else are they secretively planning? Greenland invasion? Canadian invasion? Invasion of the Panama Canal?

This particular planning meeting, though, was not just a "what if" game plan. It was the real thing.

Incompetent fools at the helm.

that the Pentagon has war plans for every piece of land on earth...and planning goes far into the future. The NSA is ridiculous. I understand that agency the same way I understand the universe. It doesn't compute.
