"Thank you, Cisco. Good morning, may as well. Good morning, all Green Bay is coming to the bears may or may not get QB Justin Fields back for Sunday's packers game. We're going four downs with Tom Faye. Good morning, Tom. Good morning, Josh. Great to have you with us first down. What's the latest from your point of view on Justin Fields playing status? Is it okay for him to return to duty of his left non throwing shoulder is less than 100%? Yeah, I do. I think that he's in a position. He's athletic and not he's intelligent about the game. He understands how to protect himself and not put himself in harm's way. And it kind of seems like he's trending towards playing, given the information that we're getting from the team. And as one bear alumni, I hope he does play. They've been bashing leather helmets and the modern stuff since 1920. And then they stood atop the list of NFL regular season victories tied the bears and packers with 786 wins each. But head to head the bears are 9 games under 500 against the pack all time. 94 one O three and 6. A lot of games here. You've lived and breathed through this rivalry as a child, a bear, a longtime analyst. What are some random moments from your experiences that highlight the rivalry Tom and who are your least favorite packers over the years starting with Charles Martin and Forrest Greg? Oh my God. Probably Aaron Rodgers and Brett Favre. Because when I played for the bears, they didn't have a solid quarterback play. They were kind of going through them like the bears have been. And we are on the upside. We want a majority of the games that I had a chance to play, but you have the good memories of William Perry catching a pass in Green Bay. I wish he would have done the Lambeau leap at that time. And like, you know, like you said, the Charles Martin incident at soldier field was one of the worst in Chicago bear history. But there's other times when Matt sui and Walter Payton, Matt Walter was dragged over the bench and Matt sui was hit late. So those types of memories come back every time you face the Green Bay Packers and it's not a big inspirational pregame speech need it because everybody know what's involved in this rivalry. Yeah, those memories are living on and stirring within you. Man, thinking of the fridge doing a Lambeau leap, wow. Let's go to third down though. One of your least favorite packers of all time, Ryan Rogers against the bears defense. It looks like a one sided fight, but hang on. He's less than 100%. Now he's struggled this season as well. What if his struggle's been and how can this injury plague version of the bear's defense do a job on Rogers Sunday? Well, obviously the struggles has come from his self admitted broken thumb, but also the injuries on the offensive line did not provide significant amount of time for him to sit in the pocket and try to locate a receiver with his pinpoint accuracy. So if the bears can have a formula of pressure, it doesn't necessarily have to result in sacks, but just make him comfortable. Put him in a retreat position and challenge his ability to throw the ball if his thumb is if his thumb is that bad. For down with Tom thayer seems like the return to Justin Fields may be the bear's best hope, but where else might the home team have an edge on the packers this week that bears running game has it cooled off a bit? I don't necessarily think so. I think if you get Justin running the ball it really is a great assistant to the running game. However, I think if you have another week within the relationship of a guy like Chase claypool in you're able to use guy like EQ saint Brown, who's got a little familiarity with Green Bay coverage. And then you get about Pringle back in the mix after the injury to Darnell Mooney. So, you know, you can't avoid throwing the ball and sometimes you got to take some chances with the bigger guys like Chase claypool, EQ saint Brown

"Was a theoretical issue. Until it wasn't. So there have been many questions raised and interesting movies made surrounding the question of whether a human being would be able to follow an order would choose to follow an order to turn the keys to launch a strike. So understandably, there's a huge urge on the part of those who are given the responsibility of protecting us to remove the human factor from the loop on the basis that it introduces a wild card, an unknowable uncertainty that can not be relied upon. The good news is that there are now so very many lessons which have since been learned about the true fragility of our supposedly advanced technology that it's at least reasonable to hope that ultimate control will not be centralized, and after all, all of the strength of the Internet arises from its inherently and brilliantly decentralized design. The good news is that William Perry was in the loop, got the call, did like a reality check and said, wait a minute. It makes no sense that this could add that there's actually 200 inbound nukes from the Soviet Union. Let's double check our systems. So anyway, it's going to be interesting to see what happens. A little bit of, I thought, interesting insight that because our weapons just no one has believed we were going to probably ever need these things again. I'm sure they're being dusted. Oil, they're kept in functioning condition. But the technology has been pretty much left as it was in the 70s and 80s. And I say good because the only way the only way it would be safe would be if we ourselves designed the chips and used our own foundries to make them and built systems that did it.

"So right now, the current assessment is that the nuclear command and control system anyway is mostly robust against a cyber threat. And of course, that bar is high. Wouldn't you say when you're going to say we're robust against the nuclear command and control system being compromised good? Hiat alvie, a professor at the U.S. naval war college, studies these kinds of nuclear weapons issues. She spoke to the record in her personal capacity, she says she has a mantra when it comes to our nuclear weapons system. And I love it. If it's not broken, it doesn't need to be fixed. Alvie says the calculus is pretty simple. Why try to change something that has worked for decades, assuming you change them to upgrade them to modern technology, you are actually inviting more risks and potential threats and sabotage into the system. While officials have tinkered at the edges of the nuclear weapons systems, John lauder, who used to direct the CIA's nonproliferation center, says most of the systems we're using are from the 70s and 80s. And I'll just remind everybody that we've been staring at the chips on motherboards, which all come from China. Wondering and worrying whether that eprom, like might be more than it looks like, or whether the Ethernet connector could have a chip hidden inside it. Just please leave everything alone. He said, there has been a general sense from people who worked in arms control that quote we had put together a set of agreements that would keep peace and stability as a result, modernizing nuclear weapons systems seemed less important since there was a general sense that the weapons would eventually be phased out, but Ukraine, he said, was a wake-up call. In 1979, about three years after the U.S. nuclear weapons program adopted that state of the art at the time, IBM series one computer, William Perry, who was a top Pentagon official at the time, got a phone call. The voice on the other end identified himself as the watch officer. Perry, who would later go on to be defense secretary in the Clinton administration, recounted in his podcast at the brink. He said, the first thing the watch officer said to me was that his computers were showing 200 nuclear missiles on the way inbound from the Soviet Union. Yikes. To the United States. And for one horrifying moment, he said, I believed we were about to witness the end of civilization. I mean, this actually happened. As Perry weighed the possibilities, he concluded this had to be some kind of mistake. There was nothing going on in the world at the time that would have caused the Soviet Union to suddenly strike. Perry asked the watch commander to find out what had gone wrong with the systems. So he could explain what happened to the president in the morning. It turns out someone had accidentally put a training tape into the computer instead of an operating one. As a result, what the computer saw was a simulation of an actual attack. It looked real because it was designed to look real. Perry says that night, fundamentally changed the way he thought about nuclear weapons. He came to the conclusion that simple human error could indeed lead to nuclear war. He said, quote, it has changed forever. My way of thinking about nuclear weapons, up until this, a false alarm, an attack by mistake starting a nuclear war by mistake.

"I remember very clearly that it was the coziest I've ever felt. And then this text comes in. And I just kind of stared at it in disbelief for a little while. This is Jess Franklin. She's a military wife and stay at home mom. And just a few years ago she had a similar experience to the one we talked about earlier when William Perry took that late night phone call. The U.S. Pacific command has detected a missile threat to Hawaii. This is not a drill. Take immediate action measures, repeat a missile name. She was fast asleep with a toddler on one side of her and a preschooler on the other, when the alert sounded. And I just kind of stared at it and thought, well, I mean, if that's true, there's really nothing you can do, so I could just go back to sleep because if I'm gonna die in a few minutes, I'd rather be all snuggled up with my kids. She tried to collect herself and then grab some tablets and books and took the kids to a downstairs bathroom. That's. The best you can do is try to get as close away from windows. I mean, like with a tornado. You want to just get where a blast isn't going to send shards of glass, flying at you. The modern version of duck and cover. How long was it before you actually found out that this was a mistake? So people who lived on base actually were able to find out a lot sooner than the civilian population of the island because all the bases have those loudspeaker announcement systems that came on pretty quickly after and said it's a false alarm.

"Up on pop culture, up on the business, great instincts that raspy voices unique big time personality. That's where he should have gone, but he wasn't through. He had to get that, can I do this? I worked all my life for this opportunity. And then it's kind of lay in here. It's out there someplace. Closer, close by, but can I maximize those opportunities? I wasn't ever sure quite frankly. And this I never said this before, that we would ever see Steve and Brian at their best. You know, it's just Brian, he's jinxed. Bad injuries. And stuff like that. And I don't have any, you know, we don't talk about this very much. I haven't. I don't have any concussions, Brian must have endured. He took some crazy goddamn bumps. And, you know, I had in the course of all the other stuff, health issues, you know, here's a guy who had 30 something cancer operations before he was like grade school. He's been through hell. Physically. And that takes an emotional toll on you. I can tell you from experience here lately. Because you do wake up in the middle of the night and think, well, another fine mess I've gotten myself into. So I never wash sure we could ever deliver on that match. Once we realized, fully that Brian was not interested in announcing to any degree and that we didn't understand how fragile he was. And I could never tell him that because that would have been the ultimate insult for an undersized kid that weighed two 25. There was an AP Associated Press, second team, all American nose tackle. That's for the big boys play. D one. And by the way, by the way, the first team all American was William Perry. He weighed three 20. My goodness. So just to give you a reference. So the era and the size and all that. So for Brian, for me to say to Ryan, you're not you're fragile. What have been, I didn't have the balls to say that. And how could you, like you said, when you talk about him and what he did and what he accomplished in his life, my goodness, what a young man, what an accomplishment what he'd been through, unreal. Well, listen, the next night, it all explodes. When Brett and Shawn get into a locker room fight, did you ever ask Steve what he thought of all this in the summer between Sean and Brett? Was this in the one in New Haven or I don't know where it was the location of it was, but it was just, again, 97 summer time. These two are getting into it in the locker room and I'm just curious more than anything. If you ever had a side conversation with Steve. Well, he was frustrated. He was astonished that they couldn't sit down and work this out. Wasn't that complicated? They weren't splitting the atom and creating a new atom, you know, new atomic bomb. Come on. Egos. Sensitivities. And a lack of communication. And I think Steve was of the mindset that I can understand these guys are they don't realize how much money is on the table here. Why can't we just, why can't they just sit down and work this thing out? I told him, you know, you should be able to answer that bear anybody. Because I want to you. They're more of the boys, a top guy. And but Steve was able to work with both of them. Cost some money was the most important thing to him. And that's kind of what opened their eyes. We're sitting on some money here, boys. Because we can't get along because of somebody somebody said, you get in a fictitious field, fictitious platform, on a fictitious business, and you're getting pissed off because of an embellished promo. Because in a potato each other, in the ring, they were safe, until great stories at hellacious matches. The secret of Brett Shawn, so anyway, I think he was frustrated as we all were. Absolutely. Oh, another week. Another oh God. What is this shit gonna end? So if you're a Bret Hart fan, you don't understand my logic. If you're Sean Michael Stan, you don't understand my logic. But if you're a JR, the EVP Italian relations, you understand, we've got to get some harm in here because it's keeping a lot of people uneasy. You have guys that loved Sean is a little group. And you have guys that were adored Brett. Probably more number than Sean had in his corner, but they both had their allies. And so then the allies had would create issues. It was silly and unnecessary. What.

"I don't know i would like to see something but again. I do not want to risk the merchandise as jay gruden would say don't types merchandise so i get the mindset. Either way my guess is. They probably won't play him in preseason. They don't wanna risk that but there are risks with that just from a rust perspective. So i dunno expectations for borough from you this year. We all know he's coming in with a chip on his shoulder and we all think he's going to come in and play well but just how well are we talking you. Do you think we're talking comeback player of the year. Mvp they were kind of saying. Hey you know still that top ten ish type of type of performance because he is coming back from that injury. What what are your expectations for him. This year is he comes back from this injury if he's not at all mothered or on the way for this comeback. There's no reason why he can't produce like an above average quarterback reaching that top status and whenever meaningful metric that. You want to throw out there like it's all they're like. The offense line is good enough. The receiving core is by far top. Ten top five in the league. You have an entire scheme. That's now year and a half in the making it's built around him and what he does well like. I know this questions is that taylor. In just his ability to manage a game to lead a productive offense but productive offense usually comes from the quarterback that he's the most important person on the team in operations and when he's this good. There's no reason why it shouldn't be as good as you wanted to be with everything that with everything else. That's around him so like expectations wise. It's hard to throw numbers out there. But like the bengals passing career passing yardage record for a season up any dahlan. Forty three hundred yards like joe burrow played. Seventeen games with marchesi. Tyler boyd higgins. There's no reason why he shouldn't eclipse four thousand yards in being contention of the record or potentially break it like we can look back six seven years from now. Forty four hundred yards for. Joe burrow that day like that. That's the expectation when you have a good quarterback in the year twenty twenty one in the nfl. Like four thousand yards is nothing. It happens to just average. Quarterbacks now rarely happened for bengals quarterbacks in in recent years after carson palmer but as soon as the game evolves the point now we're asking king and teams of throwing the ball six hundred times a year. That's the expectation. You have the quarterback you have the receivers as long as the quarterback is healthy and he has enough time and he can throw the ball consistently under three seconds. The reason why he shouldn't have one of the most productive quarterback seasons in recent things history. Yeah nine and a half games ten if you wanna call it that He he averaged basically two hundred sixty nine yards passing per game. Did joe burrow. And i think gosh what was it at the beginning of the year here. It was two three. I mean there's three three hundred yard passing games in a row in weeks two through four then. He had another one in week. Six against indianapolis four hundred yards against cleveland. So i mean he was. He was dealing towards the beginning middle of that season. And there's no aside from maybe a rehab hiccup. There's no real reason to believe that. He can't produce the same if not better. He too by the way as we know he has been going through a rigorous workout regimen. Not only to rehab that need but also upper body building strength and trying to work on that deep ball. He's now got big time receiver that he's got the rapport with it from lsu Chase to higgins. Looks like a monster. So yeah i mean let's go and i know they're still going to be people questioning the line. We have freaking. William perry shot up to the fridge quietly like like like the does have stops approve. That's true but like you heard anthony wright. He was still productive behind that terrible offensive line and in terms of just individual expectations you can still produce behind an often slide. That doesn't have to be above average even average like the offensive line. just barely improves. You can still throw for a lot of yards and he is touched on. Reception ratio is still thirteen five it was. He was still pretty productive for a rookie playing with very non explosive weapons in terms of like being comeback player of the year. I guess that have to do with being successful in being in the limelight. In being in playoff contention so that is obviously remains to be seen but terms of just him just progressing in that year to jump. That most great quarterbacks aac. There's no reason why this dangles team right now. Can't provide that for him. Yeah the one. Caveat too. And i i. I don't know if you agree with me or not. But the one caveat too is joe mixing and their commitment to the run game and where that's gonna fall into place. Obviously the bengals wanna get the run game going. They probably will be a pass first team or a pass often team but i mean they are committed they they pageau makes that big contract. They brought back frank pollack and they gave him a designation as a run game coordinator so they are going to try to do something to get the run game going. But that doesn't necessarily mean that's going to eat into a lot of joe burrow's stats and whatnot as it goes with shurmur allen and dungy really it's kinda just what are they doing. The preseason do they do enough in the in the game scenarios to to raise enough eyebrows gain enough interest. And it's kind of the jake dolegala thing right. Are you promising enough to either. Keep you on the practice squad and develop you that way or are you. Are you going to kind of falter when it comes to playing. Be the squad guys in the preseason. That's the beauty of being a quarterback like there just not of you. There's only thirty two starting jobs as typically only thirty two backup jobs. So odds are every single team is going to carry a quarterback on their practice squad and because they brought back the same practice guard rules from last year. There's going to be sixteen spots available so definitely one is going to be there for either shurmur dungy. I think shurmur. I guess right now has the imaginary lead because i guess it's just more experienced in as the nfl brain in heritage behind him but it really just come down to who takes the most of their opportunities because they're gonna get plenty if boroughs not going to be out there in the preseason three even still limiting him to some degree during training camp. They're going to get plenty of reps with the second and third team. It's just a matter of who does the best. Well that's unless you got anything else on. That is this week's positional preview. Which has been the quarterbacks not much of a competition. We know joe burrow is the guy. Obviously that goes. I don't even know why said that allowed. But he's the guy and there is a scrum for jobs behind him. We'll see how it all plays out but obviously the big thing we're all watching is joe. Burrow's rehab which seems to be headed in an extremely extremely good direction at from what we've seen so far in spring and summer so that is this week's positional preview..

According to the office of personnel management which is basically hr for the federal government eighty five or so percent of federal employees work outside the washington dc area among them now the headquarters staff of the bureau of land management which the trump administration moved from washington to colorado. Blm is in charge of more than two hundred and forty five million acres of federally managed land in the united states. More than any other agency. The question now though is is the front office going to stay in colorado madeline beck from the mountain west news. Bureau went to grand junction to find out the new bureau of land. Management headquarters is renting space in a sprawling four story brick and glass building near grand junctions airport. The agency isn't the only tenant but it's likely the most controversial under the trump administration acting director william perry pennsly- touted. Its move west as economical and good policy. When he first announced we want them closer to the lions they managed and the people they work with rather than to and even four time zones away in washington. He pointed out. Ninety seven percent of blm employees already lived in offices around the west but critics say headquarters and senior officials. Need to be in dc where the funding and power is according to be a lamb. Nearly three hundred employees retired quit or found other jobs after the headquarters announcement and only three d. Staffers have officially moved to grand junction. But what do the people of grand junction have to say. I found jack. Mueller sitting outside a coffee shop in grand junction on a hot afternoon. I don't know what to think of the people who are saying we don't own a move. He and his wife linda are retired. They say the headquarters move was a good idea and linda doesn't get why staffers wouldn't jump at the chance to live out west. Well anybody that wants to go back to dc deserves it plenty of other people. I talked with around grand junction also at the headquarters to remain here like resident. Stanzi i just love it. We would have the opportunity to have them here locally. And i think it truly makes more sense but others weren't so sure like miranda pursell. She'd heard the arguments that moving. Blm headquarters out. West would benefit the public lands agency overseas on the flipside. People said well. All the decisions are made in washington so is putting them out here. Removing the conversation. So i don't know which one i agree but one thing is certain. Moving headquarters here is an economic boon to the area worth about nine million dollars a year in jobs alone according to the grand junction economic partnership. Diane schwanke heads. The city's chamber of commerce that economic impact for us really at this point comes primarily from those jobs and the and the multiplier of those forty plus in place multiplier meaning the money the blm employees would spend on goods and services that support other jobs in the area and things have been challenging for the town. It used to rely more on the booms and busts the fossil fuel production which hurt the community for years after the two thousand eight recession but now swanky says they're diversifying into manufacturing and tourism and they survived the pandemic in okay shape. I'm glad that i've actually seen our community and mesa county survived the coveted pandemic economically much stronger than a lot of other places and that has not been the traditional history of our community. It's not just people in grand junction. Went headquarters to remain colorado's democratic governor jared. Police says he doesn't agree with how the move happened but he wants headquarters to stay now that it's there. Aaron weiss with the nonprofit center for western priorities disagrees. He says the headquarters should be closer to lawmakers and other agencies everything. blm does involves interfacing with the fish and wildlife service with the park service with the department of agriculture which oversees the forest service. But maybe there's a third way so the government doesn't have to choose between dc or grand junction. probably realistically. A split probably makes more sense. Chris brown is owner of the brown cycles bike shop in grand junction. You don't have to be you know sitting next to somebody to govern manage things that way. Brown says those who want to live in grand junction. Like those who want to move.

Tracy Stone, Manning is Montana's former top environmental regulator. Her confirmation is expected to go before a Senate committee for an initial vote this week. Here's NPR's Kirk Siegler. The president's nominee to lead the federal Bureau of Land Management. Tracy Stone, Manning has a reputation here in the West as a moderate and bipartisan deal maker on contentious public lands battles. Republicans today, though, are focused on a narrow slice of her past in the 19 eighties as a grad student in Missoula at the height of the so called timber wars over rampant clearcut logging. Back then Stone Manning sent a letter on behalf of Earth first warning the government that trees at a planned federal timber sale had been sabotaged. Putting loggers lives in danger. Here's Alaska Republican Dan Sullivan, speaking on the Senate floor tree spiking These were the kind of tactics the Tracy Stone Manning. Once conspired him. Does that disturb you? America? Wyoming Republican John Barrasso, who's on the committee that is expected to initially vote on her nomination, says she collaborated with eco terrorists. It is my belief that she is clearly disqualified to be the director of the Bureau of Land Management, which manages almost 65 million. Acres of federal forests, but stone Manning later testified against the tree spikers in federal court, saying she sent the letter because she didn't want anyone to get hurt. She's not currently giving interviews, but her supporters are rallying on her behalf, saying these GOP objections came up long before in Montana and were put to rest. Montana Senator Jon Tester, who stone Manning once worked for also sits on the committee. And I think the crap and I mean it is crap that they're standing around on her is just character assassination, Democrats are accusing Republicans of false equivalence, they mostly sat silent over President Trump's Bureau nominee who once sympathized with ranchers leading armed standoffs against federal agents.

Republicans today, though, are focused on a narrow slice of her past in the 19 eighties as a grad student in Missoula at the height of the so called timber wars over rampant clearcut logging. Back then Stone Manning sent a letter on behalf of Earth first warning the government that trees at a plan federal timber sale had been sabotaged. Putting loggers lives in danger. Here's Alaska Republican Dan Sullivan, speaking on the Senate floor tree spiking These were the kind of tactics the Tracy Stone Manning. Once conspired him. Does that disturb you? America? Wyoming Republican John Barrasso, who's on the committee that is expected to initially vote on her nomination, says she collaborated with eco terrorists. It is my belief that she is clearly disqualified to be the director of the Bureau of Land Management, which manages almost 65 million. Acres of federal forests, but stone Manning later testified against the tree spikers in federal court, saying she sent the letter because she didn't want anyone to get hurt. She's not currently giving interviews, but her supporters are rallying on her behalf, saying these GOP objections came up long before in Montana and were put to rest. Montana Senator Jon Tester, who stone Manning once worked for also sits on the committee. And I think the crap and I mean it is crap that they're standing around on her is just character assassination, Democrats are accusing Republicans of false equivalence, they mostly sat silent over President Trump's Bureau nominee who once sympathized with ranchers leading armed standoffs against federal agents. William Perry. Pendley had also called for selling off US public lands. But look, I mean, you can take a look at some of the Nam's went through for President Trump. They're not after competency there just after to rip people apart Stone. Manning's nomination is expected to squeak through the Senate. One unknown, though, remains committee member Joe Manchin, who has not yet said whether he'll vote to confirm Kirk Siegler..

From NPR news. This is all things considered. I'm Elsa Chang in Los Angeles. And from Washington. I'm Audie Cornish. We're gonna start with this fact The U. S military has no role in the electoral process. And yet President Trump and his former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, have suggested that armed forces could be used to help the president overturn the results of the election that he lost. And the speculation around their interest in this false notion. So concerned all 10 living former secretaries of defense, they felt the need to band together to remind the American public that Trump lost and that the military does not involve itself in U. S elections. Among the authors of this Washington Post op ed former Defense secretary Chuck Hagel. He joins us now welcome back to all things considered. Thanks, Charlie. Former U. S. Defense Secretary William Perry said on Twitter that the idea from this originated with former Vice President Dick Cheney. Was there a particular moment comment from this president or his allies in recent weeks that compelled you to sign on. Well, I think it's a combination of things, certainly the very loose Dangerous, erratic talk about imposing the Insurrection Act and military law in this country, which the press reported, in fact, did take place in conversations in the Oval Office with the president his the president's behavior the last month since the elections. I think I alighted in the last 24 hours by the tape that was released that that clearly indicated he was not only browbeating but threatening. Republican secretary of state of Georgia to turn that election around. I want to jump in because the insurrection act, which you just mentioned, I think, is what has been referenced publicly. By Michael Flynn. He's fresh off a pardon from President From President Trump. And here was Flynn talking on the trump Allied Newsmax within the swing states if he wanted to, He could take military capabilities and he could place him in those states and basically rerun. Election in each of those states. I mean, it's not impressive that I mean these people out there talking about martial law is like it's something that we've never done. We've done martial law has been instituted 64. 64 times. Now he's talking about it in reference to election, but correct me if I'm wrong. The few times the federal government has deployed military to a city or county has been during a major civil unrest, usually during the civil rights period or in the case of racial desegregation of schools. Does the fact that you signed a letter knocking down? The suggestion means you worry that Flynn and others are lending credence to it. Well, the fact is, just as you said. What General, Flynn said is just not accurate. We have never used the military. Whether was through, um The Insurrection Act or declaring martial law to rerun elections. And that's what that's what General Flynn is talking about. And that's what the conversation was all about in the Oval Office with President Trump that's never been done that be unprecedented where democracy or a nation of laws And we have to maintain that That's just that's a cord of our strength. With us being illegal order. And if that's the case, wouldn't someone like, say the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley, hear it? Well, the commander in chief is in charge obviously of a military of our executive offices if he gave an order Which would.
