Real big coincidence Steve from Blue’s Clues disappears in 2002 and returns when the Afghan war is over. What ops was this guy running?
So about that time Steve went off to college… #BluesClues25

- A Washington state Guardsman received a phone call from a Ukrainian who has an issue with the Javelin. Guardsman talked him through it. 30 minutes later, Guardsman gets a call from the Ukrainian who just blew up a Russia vehicle.
- Replying to @StevenBeynonThis Guardsman and Ukrainian befriended each other during a relatively recent Washington deployment to the country before the war.
- One of the top military officials fired tonight is Lt Gen Joseph Berger - the top legal official for the Army. This would be the key officer who would advise on whether orders are legal.
- Replying to @StevenBeynonDoes not technically qualify for a CAB. But is indeed a solid note for an NCOER.
- Scoop: The Pentagon is starting to remove recruiters away from efforts to pitch service to minorities - starting abandoning a prestigious Black engineering event this week. "It's fucking racist," one Army general told me.
- WW3 will start with memes
- SCOOP: Guardsmen deployed to LA aren't on formal orders, thus aren't set up to be paid or get healthcare yet
- A few things about Hegseth, Trump's pick for SECDEF First, he's way against women serving in combat arms - Saying in a recent podcast, "I'm straight up just saying we should not have women in combat roles."
- The Pentagon is really leaning on whether or not the strikes were successful on that somehow being related to the quality, skill and professionalism of the service members on the mission. The two have nothing to do with one another.
- SCOOP: The Army has seemingly been pocketing money it taxes out of soldier's paychecks meant for food, and can't account for over $151 million meant to take care of troops.
- The Afghan baby born on the C-17 on the flight from Afghanistan was named "Reach" after the plane's callsign.
- In that case, I guess The Atlantic can publish the entire conversation and that wouldn't be a problem with the DoD.GABBARD SAYS NO CLASSIFIED MATERIAL WAS SHARED IN GROUP CHAT
