Mattis taken to task by one of his own

Lawyer and former U.S. Marine, John Dowd, issued a blistering open letter to former General and ex-Secretary of Defense, James Mattis.
“Maybe, your problem is a lot deeper. Perhaps you ought to explain how and why you (and John Allen), as CG Central Command, did not engage and take out Iranian Major General Soleimani who roamed the Middle East and wreaked havoc and death of American boys with his infamous IEDs?,” Dowd wrote. “Why did it take President Trump to have the instinct and balls to take him out (of course over the objection the geniuses in the Pentagon)?”

Looking back at France before the Revolution it seems obvious to us now that the then elites were deluded and doomed, yet at the time no one saw that.

The current elite consensus is so full of holes and contradictions that when someone like Mattis thinks he is being moderate or reasonable, we peasant underlings see him as a clown. And the same with other pretenders to the 'non-deplorable' class, over and over agin.

It's all very ominous.

Good to know that not all Dowds are Maureen Dowds.

That letter has to have left a mark on Mattis.
