    According to experts on the board here, this is not true.
    According to Mattis himself it’s not true.

    Just got in here, I heard Mattis might be retiring at the end of February? Is that true?

    If only there was something straight from Mattis, like a letter, where we could see what the man himself has to say about this??

    I read the letter...




    and...




    Mattis is retiring.

    He totally rebuked everything Trump stands for and then he explicitly said he's stepping down because he isn't aligned with the president. That's not a retirement, that's a resignation.

    Kids are dying and a humanitarian crisis is going on. For low gas prices?

    Trump hasn't cleaned up anything. He's just made more messes.

    I don't, but Mattis thinks we shouldn't withdraw and I trust him more than Trump.

    Too bad Trump’s not withdrawing troops because congress hasn’t authorized use of force.

    Ted Lieu good now?

    He's been president for two years and he decides now that congress hasn't authorized it? LOL, this is why Trump tells supporters like Chris things as silly as Mattis retired (as opposed to resigned). Because he knows they'll believe it.

    Wow, our best general, the guy who led Iraq invasion #2 is out due to disagreements w/Trump over pulling out of Syria (for Putin/Russia). Even hardcore conservatives like Mattis basically making huge statements about the president's true allegiances.
    "For Putin/Russia"
    Is this troll or do you honestly believe that?


    Warmongers gonna warmonger. Not surprised the necons are upset. This is a central reason why I voted Trump and not necessarily Republican

    Not sure he ever said this. I'd say you shouldn't withdraw everyone until you at least help them help themselves first (train a police force and set up a puppet government ). Otherwise will just turn into anarchy/ISIS recruitment center

    Of course he believes we should stay. He resigned the day after the Syria withdrawal was announced... and he was reportedly angered that the Kurdish fighters were going to be abandoned and left vulnerable to Turkey.

    Trump absolutely did this because Putin wanted this. Have you not been paying attention?

    Spurs Homer is like a hedgehog, he sees one big thing. Muh Russia. Today is gonna be dumber than yesterday.

    Trump reportedly made the decision after talking to Erdogan, who might have a few inconvenient receipts in his pockets too.

    Trump also needed to do something dramatic to drive a very bad news cycle yesterday -- foreign policy by tweet and muh wall.

    IMO, Putin has nothing to do with this - what is with you and your conspiracy theories - you really think that Trump could be setting this up with Putin (through an interpreter) and nobody leaks this?

    I think that Trump is looking at these foreign "wars" or whatever you want to call them and the amount of money they are consuming COMPARED to the measly 5 billion dollars that he's asking for the border and what he has to sacrifice politically shutting down the government (which is not going to end well for him but he must). I blame these spineless, cowards called Republicans in the Senate - singing Christmas carols, indeed (although I guess I should give them credit for singing CHRISTmas carols - unlike this woman at work who objected that our youtube Christmas party background music referred to Christ - mind you, she's Catholic but we've gotten so politically correct that she felt moved to comment even though it didn't bother the sole Jewish person there.

    Through an interpreter?

    Do you think Putin doesn’t speak English?
