Dissent within military leadership clearly will not be tolerated moving forward.
"Democratic Senator Chris Murphy, who is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, offered his view on why he believes US generals are being dismissed by Hegseth.
“It’s likely that experienced generals are telling Hegseth his Iran war plans are unworkable, disastrous, and deadly,” Murphy said in a Friday post on X.
“Hegseth is firing a ton of experienced generals right now,” he added."

If I've learned anything in this life and military career, it's never to take the opposition hater's 'opinion' at face value.
And in this car, Senator Murphy is full of malarky. Politicians can say anything they want, so long as they preference it with "it's likely" or "it seems".
The fact is, you have no more an idea of what really happened than anyone (and that includes me). So maybe, don't stoke the partisan fires?
