Obviously, it's possible that Trump's Pentagon might have proposed this stuff out of legitimate public interest, but I'm glad at least on occasion, the media is not accepting any such presumption and isn't, at least yet, surrendering all of its principles.

I guess the next question is where does Murdoch stand.
@MistyCee If I can find it again, I will upload the video of when Hegseth first announced this—it’s clear that it’s arising out of his paranoia and his futile attempts to plug all the leaks coming out of the Pentagon.

Given all the fiascos that started with the original SIGNAL gate, I cannot believe such an unstable grave threat to our national security isn’t in prison already yet along running our armed forces.
@KunsanVeteran Remember Tailhook? It's likely not just incompetence want to keep secret.

Thank goodness. It's so disgusting how many media corps are just obeying in advance.
