Re: “Democrats call for Hegseth and Waltz to resign” (March 26, Nation & World):
Throughout World Conflict II, the American public was regularly reminded that “free lips sink ships,” i.e., talking unnecessarily about navy issues can jeopardize American navy belongings and operations. Secretary of Protection Pete Hegseth would do properly to abide by this warning. His latest blabfest on Sign served no sensible function even earlier than it was compounded by happening on an unsecured app.
It’s typically mentioned that data in Washington, D.C., is foreign money, and Made-for-TV Pete couldn’t forgo a chance to strut his stuff by sharing the wealth. It was clearly simply one other occasion of pandering to 1’s insider cronies, and his predictable reward was a bathe of “Go get’em, Pete!” cheers and emojis. It was simply one other show of the shallow self-importance that presently pervades the Different Washington.
The inadvertent inclusion of the Atlantic journalist was simply the cherry on the highest.
