“McChrystal’s politics supposedly hates Fox News, but it wouldn’t surprise me at all to hear his name tauted as a potential Republican V.P. candidate....this old soldier won’t fade away. This just might be the beginning of intermission.”

McChrystal adopted a little-known concept—a joint interagency task force (JIATF)—a “model for whole-of-government problem-solving by fostering organizational collaboration,” it seeks to overcome the “tendencies of agencies to seek autonomy rather than interagency collaboration.”
The key, explained McChrystal, was “we shared things they would not have otherwise had access to. . Suddenly, they learned we weren’t just consumers of their intelligence; we were providers of our intelligence,” which was a treasure trove of information.

McChrystal’s new book coming out —

Title: “Risk: A Users Guide”

Takeaway: we’re not doing a good job of protecting ourselves due to the fact WE didn’t unite as a country, he said. Rather, we fought dozens of ‘small wars’ as states.

The USA has separation of powers, sir.

To imply the only way we unite is by taking directive / mandates from an authoritarian & Unitarian type government is incredibly flawed.

‘If only every person and state confirmed’ — thats the translation. Checks & balances, Democracy, Bill of Rights would cease to exist.

“We always knew another virus was going to come & threaten a pandemic,” he said. “We not only knew it was inevitable, but we know how to deal w a threat like that through public health. & we blew it; we absolutely have flubbed the response.”

We knew this? Who? You & B Gates?

Remembering Pat Tillman.

‘McChrystal was the head of Special Operations command in Afghanistan during Army Ranger (& former football star) Pat Tillman’s death. McChrystal was the one who approved paperwork awarding Tillman a Silver Star..’ — awarded based on a cover up.
‘This was once a big embarrassment for the army and, to a lesser extent, McChrystal himself (though he has copped to making an innocent mistake). But when the general was elevated to top spot in Afghanistan this past spring, relatively few publications revisited the affair.’
McChrystal worked with W Bush to hide the disaster. Remember, McChrystal was nominated by W Bush as Director of the Joint Staff in 2008 (W.’s final year). The senate protested the appointment, however after a private meeting with the Senate Armed Forces, he was confirmed.

Let’s continue. Biden, @marty_walsh, Flynn via ‘insurrection’ brought The McChrystal Group into the Federal Government to train federal employees.

“WWC Global, McChrystal Group, & Partner Forces Align to Bring Leadership Training to the Federal Workforce”

Price?

$82 mil
“recently launched a partnership with government contracting firm Partner Forces & the McChrystal Group — run by former Gen. McChrystal — to offer leadership programs to federal government employees, including training to get the most out of their teams.’

“Our military has a legacy of storied units & formations, recorded achievements and a culture of service to the nation. Unfortunately, our govt’s recent history witnessed a lack of interagency process, an exodus of expertise, disruptive shutdowns & a rapid decrease in morale” SM Image

So General McChrystal was praised for reaching a partnership w the Afghan government that would ensure children were given the Polio vaccine.

The unfortunate reality?

A mutated strand of Polio has been derived specifically from the Polio vaccine. & they knew.
#Poliomyelitis
Genocide. Irregular warfare.

The MyChrystal Group a now formally developing strategies to ‘best’ train and develop “our federal employees.”

He went from local govt (Boston) to state (Missouri) to Federal. As the progression was imminent.
