  1. Joe talks WAY too much in an interview. Ask brief incisive questions, let the guest answer. End the pre-question speeches. Dude has his own show to talk all he wants. He has Mattis in once. Jesus, he stops Bing West in the middle of his answer to give another speech. Terrible interviewing.

    1. Maria Sanchez
      … as I grow up (50s😂)…., I can’t help but notice how we treat people… She alone had the courage to challenge Mattis…, call him out , to account… and Her apparent “male owner” just talked over n shut her down…, and she seems to know to smile🤢… them I’m thinking about my “malenesssss” in my marriage…, don’t get me wrong.. I’m married to my own Gen Mattis.. she is beautiful, wonderful and powerful (Phd educator) but, ya know as I wonder how much she chooses to give up her place, so that I can have “male person/ ego time”😂.
      In my expressed “grandad” values.., it’s supposed to be the other way around, I teach my daughter n granddaughter to shine and my grandson to his strength is always found in his being a quiet gentleman like my Dad…
      A shame to see Joe shut his Wife down… to save tough ole Mattis… a guy that don’t need anyone to save him..

    1. The book is for people to understand the military and government service. An inspirational book, and a book to learn lessons about mistakes that were made by those no longer in power. He is not a political hack and acknowleges the political divisions as a threat.

    1. JimP Yet you list none.  Put up or shut the phuck up.  Fact is, you morons just hate Trump and that is the real reason, the only reason.  Otherwise you don’t have one valid reason.

    2. @Wilmo Mee No strings for you to pull dear boy, it is just you live in the world of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. Come back into the fold of reality. Although if he is what you expound him to be you with your childish writings are no different.

    3. @Wilmo Mee Learn to write or your no different than Trump but atleast he knows how to do some work, you are nothing but liberal who shouldn’t write checks his a** can’t cash.

  2. Does America’s out of date 2nd ammendment mention the right to buy cheap bullets. When did the militia include your neighbours and their children?

  3. Yeah, awesome – truely great leaders also need to know when not to follow. Don’t think Mattis knows that. He’s more concerned about his reputation than bucking the system when it’s wrong. That’s how he made general.

  4. I am sorry BUT… as a retired 100% disabled United States Marine having served 20 years, I am appalled at Mr Mattis’s cowardly decision to protect this tyrannical President by remaining AWOL, refusing to speak his mind. A “Conscientious Objector” is what we used to call them… that or just plain “chicken”!

  5. His silence is dishonorable. He has returned to the board of General Dynamics and doesn’t want to put military contracts at risk. Money before country.
