RESIST
He doesn’t have Flynn beat. Flynn is the first General that’s been convicted for selling out his country
I’m sure he protested in silence when Obummer fired him?
he didn't resign in protest he didn't agree with pulling troops out of Syria.
We can’t help he has no backbone
If you work with an a**clown and everyday is idiocy,incompetence, and immorality how do you wait that long?
I greatly respect & admire what the MattisResignationLetter represents. Rather than quitting, however, I think it more patriotic & symbolic for Mattis to state his position against realDonaldTrump & act accordingly waiting for the sycophant to fire him while still fighting.
It's a shame a man with great integrity has to leave and a narcissistic jerk is still the head of our nation. America is falling.
Remind me again how many of Obama’s left? Oh yeah, 3.
This definitely isn't the first defense secretary to resign due to policy differences. Fake News.
What kind of Americans support a president that steals charity money? Trumpeteers. Because cult members drink the juice of low moral standards.
The rest were fired.
AlexWitt I admire The defense secretary. Smart Guy!
AlexWitt Any of you civilians that would like to take the place of our troops in Afghanistan and Syria have at it. What’s the alternative stay there forever 🤔
And here's another important one:
Making the point that Mattis was fired by Obama, only makes Trump look even more incompetent.
The American people elected trump not Mattis Bring our boys back home. Remember Obama fired Mattis.
TrumpResign
During the last administration Gen. David McKiernan – then the U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan was “fired” – and replaced with Gen. Stanley McChrystal whom was eventually “fired” also.
Quite simple. He tied his lifelong career to a traitor that's an embecile. He did nothing great by finally finding a shred of honor. when it was his legacy on Syria, Afghanistan, t decided to destroy. He didn't much care up till that point, Now did he?
The west is waging a war to protect yesterdays energy resources. The frontline of this war encompasses the entire middle east. The west is literally fight for the same resources Hitler fought for!
Integrity! Finally ---
Obama FIRED Mattis. Just stop with your propaganda
I support the president a hundred percent for pulling out of Syria we have been there for 16 years it's time to bring our troops home. If You whiners don't like it well too bad we care about our troops! Thank you President Trump for also not backing down for the wall.
“Trump is God’s gift that keeps on giving,” says a Russian columnist. “Trump implements Russia’s negative agenda by default, undermining the US-led world order, US alliances, US credibility... Russia can just relax and watch and root for Trump”
I believe Gates wrote a book.
Trump would have fired that war hawk anyways......good he saw writing on wall.
At least he was given the chance to resign, Obama fired him.
Lobby boy for arms dealers
Russia I has taken over the USA without firing a shot!!! Merry Christmas for Putin, Saudi Arabia and ISiS from fRUMP!!
How do you know CoS Kelly didn't resign? Cause the liar in chief told you so?
Resignation is not protest!! HE QUIT because he cannot carry out the Commander In Chief's orders!! That is what U DO if u r a subordinate!!
it was uplifting to finally see a man stand up to the clueless one and summed it all up in a document that will be in the history books
Don't forget to tell your readers how he RESIGNED under Obama.

This administration has been in distress since day 1! Considering he was the last adult in the room.
