Yesterday

who is former military/currently military adjacent.

He's in Bahrain 4-6 times a year.

We don't know what he does over there...he can't say.

We are not sure if he is there now.

There are thousands of Americans currently trapped in the Middle East.

Absolutely zero planning to get those people out of there.

This is so bad...
