It used to matter because it opened people up to blackmail and bribes if they had a lot of secrets to hide. That one guy had to step down under Obama because of an affair.

Harder to blackmail people devoid of shame who stand behind all their shady dealings.

"Anonymous smears."

I'm afraid all of this is all going to be so comically tragic

Quote :

"Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the Pentagon's inspector general to investigate the "conduct" of retired Joint Chiefs Chairman General Mark Milley — who at times clashed with President Trump during his first term — and determine whether it's appropriate he should be reduced in rank from his current four stars. Hegseth also revoked Milley's security detail and suspended his security clearance. Even though Milley is retired, he had an ongoing security detail through the Army as a result of Iranian threats in the wake of the 2020 U.S. drone strike that killed Iranian General Qusem Soleimani. Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and then National Security Advisor John Bolton recently lost their security details on orders from President Trump, who clashed with them as well."
