I honestly thought this had already occurred because I was so used to hearing USAREUR-AF while I was there. Guess that was just the ASCC and not the Combatant Command.
Good move overall.

L, and I cannot state this strongly enough, MAO
Glad to see this new addition to the podcast cabinet

It was odd....Deputy Directors and below have always been agents....odd for a civilian appointee in that position.

My dumb ass sat here for 2 minutes trying to figure out what MAO stood for because I thought the L was an I.
Perhaps I am slightly dyslexic.
AF needs to do the same thing.
Go down to 4 theater commands;
Northcom (US/Can/Mex/Carrib)
SouthCom (South of Mexico)
EastCom (Europe/Africa)
WestCom (Pacific and Mid-East)
That leaves? SOCom/TransCom/StratCom/SpaceCom?
Maybe consolidate Strat/Space Commands
Wow, put some respect on the dudes name at least- he's THE number 1 news show in America daily, and it's not even close.
I hope he gets an actual #BonginoArmy and assaults the Pod Save America twinks in the Battle of Los Angeles.
I love this timeline!
I unironically hope this happens
Also, is he actually the #1 news show? Didn’t know that. Good for him!
I know this guy. Car accident, broken back, wheelchair, tragic stuff.
One day he’s listening to Pod Save America, gets up out of his wheelchair and WALKS over to the computer to turn that shit off. Big smile on his face and then dies right then and fucking there. Happy as a pig in shit that he would never listen to that crap again.

USAREUR used to own the Africa battlespace...and AFRICOM isn't even based in Africa. Africa forward is in Djibouti...but in reality it's just another European vacation for a 4 star HQ.
AFRICOM and EUCOM sit literally less than 8Ks as the crow flies from each other. the USAREUR-AF is over in Wiesbaden.
I did read he did some time as a Secret Service dude at least.
Well, we banned everything trans, so that should go with it. Unless the Navy wants it...

I'm just so confused with this as well. But he's conservative and has been a LEO at PD and USSS level...but anyone know what his career was like there?
He ended on Bush Jr and Obama's detail.
Guys, are we still playing this game? Can we get to the end? I don’t wanna see any folks simping for a hire from the ironclad ranks of the FBI, the most virtuous, most pristine, best run federal law enforcement agency we have. There’s no point talking about Bongino in any calm or rational sense. Just call him a dumb podcaster that got the job because of his personal relationship and move on, after agreeing that Trump is the harbinger of doom for the nation and he’s destroying democracy.
I’m sure the admin didn’t vet him as good as the internet will, I’m sure that it won’t be politically motivated, and everyone is dumb but me cause I have a phone, and he’s gonna fail, and he’s not qualified and ‘what about muh norms’ and all the rest.
Didn’t we do this with Hegseth already? Literally the exact same thing? Just move on to the next thing. It’s cleaner.
Bongino is in. Cry, cope, seethe, find next issue.

True....but not a current 1811, and not a FBI agent.
Granted, there is nothing that says the Exec management has to be agents.....but in my world, we don't hire Chiefs of Police or Asst Chiefs who aren't cops....
Just an odd precedent to set.

Until Comey, Page, McCabe, and Strzok are in chains we're kinda fucked tbh.
But in some cases they do appoint judges who don't even have a law degree.
Hahaha oh my god that’s so disturbing. +1 to you.

Yeah, Comey, Page, McCabe, and Strzok can burn in hell.....they caused so many problems for the guys in the field.
Not a current 1811, so he hasn't been indoctrinated into the FBI culture by co-workers and higher ups in the FBI.
Well you’ll be happy to know it was set a long time ago. Comey was never a federal agent anywhere. He was a lawyer. Never worked FBI, or any other law enforcement for that matter, before his appointment to director in 2013.
Eta- fat fingered 2013.
