I would describe his look on the auspicious occasion pictured here as, pensive.

The face of the General on that picture shows his happiness working with this administration.

He’s retiring from the Trump Administration.

We are screwed

faully33 Resigning / retiring, no real difference when you have a CV that shows your last big job as being in Trump's White House. It would be hard to get another job with that glaring on the page. Only job he could get now is witness for Mueller.

I don't think Putin is available for the position. Good luck trying to find somebody more aligned with his own way of thinking.

It takes 2 years to figure out you don't agree with someone and you don't want to work for some one you don't agree with? After having a similar job for 30 or 40 years where you were mainly the boss of everyone? Sounds legit to me. Lol.

Trump announces his new Secretary on Defense.

Mattis is furious with Trump's pro-Putin foreign policy. 💥💥💥💥

Playing a stooge got him here...mmfa

✌🏿

One less adult in the room.

Hide the nuclear football!😱

VICTORY in Syria, lmao

Damn those defense companies are pisssssed

Good for Mattis. He is above this.
