Memo Notes…

Defense Secretary James Mattis resigned Thursday, a day after President Donald Trump’s plans to withdraw troops from Syria became public.

Some on the right say Mattis is a democrat. To be clear, Mattis replied to that criticism saying, “I have never registered for a particular party in my life.”

Bottom line: No Defense Secretary should hear about the withdrawal of troops from twitter. And, it seems only Putin is happy about this decision. I wonder how Rand Paul feels about it? He’s an isolationist and should like it.
