It always seems so infantile how devoted to imagery and theatre the current admin and many of their supporters are. The SecDef being a case in point, calling it the department of war, doing the whole warrior culture BS, etc.
Funny how the three hot chicks that he put in positions of power: Bondi, Noem, and Gabbard have all been removed already. Weird how image doesn't mean shit when the rubber hits the road (kind of like how the eggheads that were warning against attacking Iran were pushed aside for Mr/ "We negotiate with bombs", and now the US is in a whole world of strategic hurt right before the mids).
