    Has their military ever won a war beside the one where they dropped some nukes?

      No reason for a Department of Defense if no one will attack us,but War, well you can do that proactively. Makes the Department more justifiable.

      No they didn’t. Only Congress can rename the Department of Defense. Trump’s scrawled “orders” are meaningless.

        It matters because it was all over the news and people now think that is what it’s called, not to mention the official government is saying that’s what it’s called.

          The news is complicit in his actions. It has not legally changed names and no one should be using the illegitimate one.

    I do hope Miller gets his comeuppance. I may not even drink that day.

      Is he even an elected official? I can’t imagine even the most die hard MAGAt voting for such an unappealing ghoul.

        No just appointed as head Nazi, douche whatever makes his eyes blink tons when asked about it. But he appears to be in charge of major decisions that the orange turd doesn’t want to deal with. Though I think Rubio gets a slice of that pie too with Pete getting leftovers cause he makes sure military does what the others want.

        Eye blinks are reference to one interview there were some difficult questions and Miller blinked like trying to take off flying under his eyelash power. More entertaining when he just stood there silent after saying the words plenary authority (if I spelled it correctly) so they could edit it nicely.

    This moron doesn’t seem to realize why things like biological warfare haven’t materialized so far except in a few extremely targeted ways, but he certainly seems to be the one who will motivate them. There’s a lot of low cost ways to fight a superior power, they just haven’t materialized because what that would mean to the world order they are now gleefully trying to topple.

    We work better together than against each other. Imagine just non-stop insurgency and terrorism. How much progress can we get done if people are afraid all the time …

    All these chicken hawks screaming about “power”.

    I am inclined to hope that the US Army itself will push back. Maybe I’m naive, but Kegsbreath has gone out of his way to alienate them and reduce their numbers with his anti-DEI stupidity.
