It's a betrayal of the administration. It's a betrayal of the oath that they took when they went in. And if they think this is helping matters, it is not. And I'm struck by the fact that all of these guys are doing it and presumably were vetted by this administration for an administration that puts so much, such a huge premium on vetting loyalists, okay?

I listened to the whole thing. And I think if you go serve, you leave and you keep your mouth shut. That's my, that's my personal view.

I understand that. I understand that. And that's a risk they take. And I don't think that he said, oh, he said, I don't really know. He's not a Pete guy. Dan called was a Pete guy. Look, I don't think Pete went and threw his own people under the bus. Like nobody looks good in all of this. But to me, This reflects poorly on the administration's vetting.

It reflects poorly on their personnel choices. And it reflects poorly on, you know, how they pick people they thought would be loyal to them. Like the whole thing sticks. And by the way, I would say I have no idea what happened here. I have no read of this and no idea what the drama was on the inside. I don't think anybody does.

It's about five people in the public that's following this story to the extent of the ins and outs of even who these people are. Nobody in America knows who these people are. They just know it's a big mess at the Pentagon.

I think that was a really important part of the conversation. And look, for 20 plus years, you can trace it back to Dan Rather in 2004. But even before that, when we had these experiences with titans of supposedly neutral purveyors of the news, who claimed to be one thing, and then there were scandals that showed them to be operating in the service of one political party.
