I can’t be the only one wondering at how no one in a closed-doors meeting was able to both contemplate the status of their own security clearance, or how it might be negatively affected by disclosing sensitive (albeit apparently not classified, secret, or top secret) information in the presence of someone who was not legally entitled to hear/see it? According to the source, there were foreign military officers there as well? How the fuck did not one of them stand up and demand that she get the fuck out of the fucking room?

How is it possible for the Secretary of Defense to be so nose-blind to this level of bullshit, as though he thought that it was acceptable to bring his spouse along as some kind of adult “bring your kid to work day”? This isn’t “odd” or “strange”, it represents possible degradation and compromise of national security. Wait in the fucking lounge, Jennifer, Jesus Christ.
