Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is sending an amphibious assault ship, the USS Tripoli, and its Marine expeditionary unit to the Middle East, a senior U.S. official confirmed to Axios on Friday. Why it matters: The deployment will add thousands of Marines, several warships, and F-35 fighter jets to support those already in the region, the U.S. official said.

I wonder if “JD” “Vance” supposedly being a doubter is part of the playbook.
If PEDOnald has to step down to health reasons, “JD” “Vance” looks like the “sensible” one by firing Hegseth and ending this unnecessary war. His poll numbers skyrocket, since he’ll be the Republican that won’t do all the excesses that PEDOnald had (except he will, he’ll just be less stupid and brash about it. It will be much quieter but twice as devious).
In parallel, they stop talking about Epstein at all and won’t even take questions about it…maybe one or two fall guys take the hit - perhaps Blondi. No one really big like PEDOnald sees any punishment whatsoever.
